I have been posting this note of caution for a while now:
I've had reports of Kewtech MFTs at my local college suffering seemingly random faults that all seem to related in some way to the rotary range selection switch. Their KT64 and 65 MFTs have been going to and from Kewtech every couple of weeks for over 2 years, with numerous repairs and firmware upgrades, without a satisfactory solution to the problem so far.
I am told the first signs of trouble usually starts with the difficulty to null the leads in the normal manner, but if the range switch is jiggled the leads can be nulled, until even this becomes impossible. Once this behavior starts, keep an eye on the results on other ranges as random wild readings, terminated tests and odd display behavior often occurs.

This plagued my old KT 62 from the 2nd week of having it.

Was without it more than I was with it.
