0xdeadbeef, Don't worry, I take responsibility for my own mistakes ;) There are two reviews...one for the built unit and one for the kit. The kit review says: "Very good and functional testers. First class components" No mention of display issues and anyway these displays are now so cheap that I would fit a better one if needed :) Having looked at the schematic I believe it to be a pretty decent design and IMHO better value for money than the ACTracer as I get the benefit of total portability. If you were to look at Huntrons prices for an LCD display Tracker you would be horrified ! I don't like to waste money but this looks a pretty decent risk to me :) Thanks again for pointing me towards ELV. I have purchased from them before but had no idea that they could supply this unit.

I've always liked this curve tracer kit that I found several years ago, I bookmarked it, so I remembered it when this thread popped up. I don't own this one, but the author/developer has done a nice job and it's had good reviews. Sadly, he's not selling it anymore. http://fullnet.com/~tomg/gooteect.htm It wasn't cheap at $779 for the kit and $1200 fully assembled, but it included an audio function generator and triple output power supply. |

The ELV K100 arrived today :) Initial impressions of the kit are very good indeed. Professionally packed and quality components used. I attach the unpacking photos Aurora |
