When another manufacturer challenges the Fluke 87V.... it is a interesting story, and must be shared.  ;)

Hi retiredcaps,
what makes the story interesting is mostly the PDF document which does the comparison. (ittsb link)
I do collect such diamonds ..  ;D

Other interesting finds in it, is orthographical mistakes, for example instead of Range ( rage ),
and another interesting marking is the best specs to be marked in red ( which should be the other way around).

I thought that my English was suck, but there is and worst examples out there..  ;) 

This document comes close to the Canadian TV show " Gags for laughs "  :D

Kiiakos, the only time I see that is when I am in a queue at the bank, where it is part of the 20 minute customer info advertorial loop. Sometimes i get to see it 2 or 3 times..... ;( a day.
