Nope.  But then it's been some time since I was up on what's out there in
that market...

I guess that's not to unreasonable.  I paid over $200 for my cap meter,  a
B&K autoranging unit.  I'd used the earlier LED-display unit before, 
and it was okay,  as far as I can recall,  mine is LCD-display and has a
minor design flaw with regard to maintining a zero setting on the lowest
range.  That setting is driven by an RC time constant,  and they apparently
didn't use parts in there which were temperature-stable,  as it bounces all
over the place.

Good way to go,  anyhow.  Data doesn't take up that much space what with
the cost of storage these days,  and I like to archive that kind of thing
on all sorts of equipment.

I can think of a place to pass that along to.
