[Amps] Intermittent Bird element-SOLVED !

[Jeff]

	Thanks to all of those who responded to my plea for help! It
ended up being a 
intermittent tongue contact inside the Bird meter itself. I just
carefully 
pulled it out enough to make a good contact. I didn't even know it was
there, Thanks.

Thought it might have been the 2500C Element going bad but it wasn't,
its not cheap !!
