Hi folks
I have an old but much loved AVO Model 8 which was my fathers before he passed on. It has little monetary worth, but great sentimental value. We both used this meter for years in our business.
Sometimes the needle only reads about half the deflection it should for a given input, a tap on the case usually puts it right temporarily, but I`ve spent hours searching for a dry joint or bad connection. Typically the fault never occurs with the meter out of it`s case.
I wonder if anyone has experience of this problem? could it be the movement itself? any clues?
