I have two of the multi-meters in this picture! A Simpson and an RCA. The Simpson still works perfectly!

Yep. In fact, I have 2, one of which is dead.

The RCA is a VTVM, not a multi-meter. I built it from a kit, but it no longer works. My first electronics project, BTW.

Yes. Though I use my Fluke about 99% of the time.
