It is going to depend on what kind of meters everyone is interested
in. Personally I would like one that is rather vintage-looking, but thats
just MHO. Different meters are probably going to have different specs. It
would be best if we all had the same meters, would make the project
easier, I would think anyway.
Maybe we should have a seperate list for this project because
something tells me there is going to be a lot of communication required
that isn't going to really interest other TCLUG list subscribers.
So what kind of meters would we want? Vintage looking? Newer? Doesn't
matter? Let me know and I will try and find some that we will all like and
will have reasonable specs.
