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..
