No. 98 Portable Voltmeter No. 135-B Panel Mounting Voltmeter Portable and Panel Mounting RADIO INSTRUMENTS Set owners and builders — once you have heard or vised a voltmeter controlled set you will realize the value of an instrument. A voltmeter takes the guesswork out of filament control. It will enable you to get the best from your set and at the same time to burn the tubes at their proper values. Pattern No. 98 is a double scale portable voltmeter having colored scales and correspondingly colored flexible test leads. It is especially adaptable to battery and filament checking. Pattern No. 135-B is a double scale panel mounting voltmeter with push button switch for high scale reading. It is an attractive addition to any set.
