Hopefully, someone can suggest an easy technique to wire meter shunts in
fractional parts of an ohm. I just spent some tedious, cut and try time
finally getting a 1 ma meter to read 1 amp of plate current using an
oddball combination of four (4) sand type mini value resistors in
parallel. It's cumbersome, works OK, but looks awful. Is there a
retail supplier of low value nichrome type resistance wire (per linear
length) that allows for the quick calculation and fabrication of meter
shunts within a range of fractional parts of an ohm? (e.g., .04-.05
ohms) Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Ron W2CQM/3
