Capacitor Tester???
#19

Back in the day caps were not even rated for ESR, so no one cared much. Today with new applications it is important.
Ripple current was not rated either.

So for radios I'd say what John said, cap meter should test for, obviously, capacitance and for leakage.

For 20 bucks good deal anyways.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
