Anyone know the approximate resistance of the strip?

Some photos of the insides of an 8024a, which is fairly close in
construction to an 8060a.

The ribbon cable:

The ribbon cable between the two boards is made from screened
graphite, which tends to crack if flexed. I found a similar ribbon
cable, but made from flattened copper wire that looked more reliable.
I removed the original ribbon cable, clamped in the new cable, and
after a bit of jiggling, got it to make a connection without
soldering. Once it was working, I used hot melt glue to hold it in
place. I suppose soldering would have been easier, but at the time, I
didn't want to wreck the meter.
