Now if instead of an anlogue meter, the Bird 43 had a digital readout to 3 places of decimals, people would believe it implicitly, because it would be digital......and digital read outs hide the difference between accuracy and resolution.
Strictly, we should be talking 'measurement uncertainty' rather than 'accuracy'.
Wandering a little bit, but on the subject of measurement uncertainty, do the calculations on the measurement uncertainty of a receiver thrid order input intermodulation intercept point to really frighten yourself..
