From my other thread, I was trying to see if a transistor was faulty, ( thank you Dick Cappels ).
Based upon another members post, I was looking for .6 -.7 volts. ( thank you GopherT ).
So, when I began trying to take the various BCE readings, I kept getting strange results.
Then I noticed that the meter had a diode setting.
Voila.
My question:
Is that typical, in that a meter with a built in diode feature will mess up the voltage readings for a diode ?
