I currently have one nice digital VOM. So I measure voltage, then current, back and forth having to move the cable each time, which sucks. I want a stand-alone ammeter that I can quickly place within a circuit, I think. I would rather not purchase another meter just to measure current and am thinking that this might be something easy to build but didn't find alot searching so far.
Do you guy's use a separate amp meter for this stuff? I am just a hobbyist that likes playing around with things. One goal is to eventually build a SW transmitter. Should I try to purchase, build? I would prefer building. I am thinking I would like to be able to measure down to the microampere range.
Thanks for any input!
