- In the curent Radio Shack catalog there is a DMM with RS-232 output.
- I have one similar to this and have had it working with a mac by wiring the
- cable differently. You would need two of these for two channels. This
- would use up both serial ports on the mac. The DMM I have is 4.5 digits
- and cost about $110.

- Mine came with software for an ibm pc clone. You can aquire data with a
- communications program or write your own.
