    quote Richard A. White:

    (…) I have done some research and found some interesting info on the differences of a good multi-meter vs the “buzz” boxes referred to earlier. Anyone care to take a stab at why to do this right we should NOT use a multi-meter?(…)

    Response lag when using the (digital) multimeter? Buzz-box needing more (or less) current to indicate, thus offering a more positive indication?

    Either instrument is capable of unambiguously indicating an open or closed condition. But one may be ‘better’ at indicating the intermediate, where the points are not quite closed, but not fully open, either..
