Was your first meter a "trashy" meter?
skander36:
Mine was a diy with C520 (attached), but short time after, an yellow one (the left from foto on the Fungus first post) followed. The lack of a proper frontend was the cause. That was in 1990 ...

My first meter Beckman tech 330 true rms was quite expensive $300 IIRC way back in 1980 That was a lot of money back then. It became flaky within a few years a real POS. I will never purchase anything Beckman again ever. My Flukemeters have lasted forever.
Come to think about it I actually has a Sanwa analog meter (1975ish) before the Beckman. It actually worked for quite a while.

I've started with my father's multimeter - "Ц20"
At age of 15 I was able to buy my very first multimeter, which looked exactly as the Mastech one from the first post.
Now I'm enjoying Agilent U1232A.

Not sure how trashy this guy is - Altai HC-2020S. I acquired this by - ahem - sneaking it onto a works purchase order for other bits, decades ago now. It served me well enough. It has since been lurking in the workshop, replaced by an Amprobe AM-500-EUR (which has now had a safety recall!)
Not all of my stuff is as dirty...

My first was a kit from Radio Shack I built myself. The next one I had was a B&K digital and then a Heathkit DMM kit (it's kind of Fluke 8020a wanna be).
