[Amps] Gaussmeter needed

[Will Matney]

Bill,

I should have mentioned that was gauss per sq inch. I figure some of the 
older ones may have measured it this way. Actually, I need one that will 
measure something like 10-20 kilogauss per sq cm. I want to use it here 
for transformer lam stacks to check the gauss against factory specs. It 
could be either AC or DC, AC for transformers and DC for chokes. The 
precision can be within +/- 5-10% or so, or a few gauss (10 to 20). It 
doesn't have to be that exact as I figure older ones won't have a tight 
tolerance anyhow. I found an old FW Bell on Ebay but the guy never 
e-mailed me back to tell me how high it would measure.
