Heathkit made a Q-meter kit that was patterned after
the Boonton, but simplified. I had one of these for years, and got
quite a bit of use out of it, but the 260A is a step up in capability
and accuracy.


Since you mentioned the Heathkit unit, I have one that I haven't done
anything with since I don't have the special inductor to calibrate it. I
also don't have any way to measure an ordinary inductor to use as a
substitute. Do you know of some other way to calibrate it?


Purchase a reference inductor from J. W. Miller?
