Jim,
According to the manual on my Heathkit HD-1250 GDO, that same parallel circuit
is the basis you use to measure inductance and capacitance with a dip meter.
You use the LC parallel circuit and the frequency of the dip meter to calculate
the
device under tests' value. You really need a precision capacitor to measure L
or a
precision inductor to measure C. When you see the dip, measure the frequency of
the dip meter at that point and use that to do the calculation.
Best,
Will
