content: May I buy this one from you?Will be an interesting comparison to my Agilent 34401A and 34410AAnd it might work perfectly for another client project I am working on.Thanks for your great offers.

content: Quote from: AudioGimmer on February 10, 2015, 12:24:18 pmJust my thoughts! I've already got a Keithley 2000 (from Top Loser), a Keithley 2015 and a 5 1/2 digit Advantest so I don't need another bench meter but there is always the feeling that one more might be useful!

content: I am still in doubt: I am in the race buying a HP/Agilent 34401A that is half the price as what TopLoser asks.Would I be better off with the Fluke?And how would people recact on stuff "calibrated" with the Agilent vs the Fluke?

content: Quote from: AudioGimmer on February 10, 2015, 12:24:18 pmWell, I really do not need it as well.I am not even sure how many 34401A meters I have at the moment.But I heard so much good stuff about this 8845A and 8846A, I think it is about time that I use one of them.And may be I gain some knowledge and then integrate it in to a clients project.It will definitely be interesting to compare it to the 34401A
