[Austin] I don't know that I believe that. How are they going to repair ALL the M6 non-TTL meters if they can't get any of the electronics? I doubt it is patented, and they certainly could just have someone else 'make' them, it isn't rocket science... If some component went EOL (end of life) there would more than likely be an available replacement. That juts doesn't sound correct to me. - ------------------------
