AHwww. Its a digital READout!
Your post made me wish I went digital. The numeric read sounds great and the way you describe the rest sounds like it works just the same. When I asked the RS employee to tell me the differences between the two.. He could not tell me stated he did not understand them and had never used them. So I went with the less-expensive buy, since I've spent enough lately and knew the analogue was in use to satisfaction, by many.

Since the analogue meter screen has no hash marks for smaller increments. Sounds like your digital would be more accurate.
