What's the model,my matchbox shows no metering? I might have a manual to
advise if another brand.

> Will 1N34s work in there? How about 1N914s? Which is the preferred diode?
1N34 germanium is what most units use. R/S has them.

Yes quite a few, I have two after some searching. Plan to use one
on 450 wide spaced #12 wire ladder.
