    They may have used a very simple type of signal meter that may only read one or two frequencies. Some of these meters can look like a digital multimeter.

    Standard signal meter is much bigger then a multimeter.

    Don't know where you are Christophicus, but as per the other thread analog NTL is crap in West Dublin at the moment. Might give them a call in the morning if I'm in the mood to hang around for 20 mins and not talking to anyone :(
