Just dropped back in, and in response to your question, the EICO does have a pretty large filter cap in it, though I can't testify to how many of its microfarads may have grown legs and run away over the years. However, the check I performed against my bench supply, which is definitely well filtered, confirmed the ammeter's calibration error. I got a few giggles reading some of the interchanges on this thread I started, between "Homer J Simpson" and others. I'm thinking that some of the participants' alimentary canals may have somehow gotten completely reversed. Medical miricals, to be sure.
