I have an old Fluke 8020B and no manual. I don't remember how I got it,
but I use it all the time around the house.

After ~20(?) years of owning it, I finally notice that it has a range
that I didn't notice since I didn't have a reason to use it . . . 200nS
and 2mS. What is this? And what can I use it for?

They are conductance measurements in milliSiemens and microSiemens.
They are used for resistances greater than those usually measured with
most DVM.

I have one of those meters, but I never got used to those
measurements.
