What's so hard about putting a resistor in parallel with your meter?


Never even occurred to me.




Resistance used depends on the range:

Or you could just read the question:

I'm currently TS on a mid 70s Tek
scope the manual for which states the readings given are valid for a
meter with a Zin of between 100k and 200k (specifically a Triplett 630NS
see link).
