Notes:

• Connect J2 and J3 to an Avo-meter set @ 50µA range
• Switching SW2 the four input ranges can be multiplied by 5
• Total fsd ranges are: 10mV, 50mV, 100mV, 500mV, 1V, 5V, 10V, 50V
• Set R11 to read 1V in the 1V range, with a sinewave input of 1V @ 1KHz
• Compare the reading with that of another known precision Millivoltmeter or with an oscilloscope
• The oscilloscope reading must be a sinewave of 2.828V peak to peak amplitude
• Frequency response is flat in the 20Hz-20KHz range
• If you have difficulties in finding resistor values for R1, R2, R3 & R4, you can use the following trick:
  R1 = 10M + 1M in parallel
  R2 = 1M + 100K in parallel
  R3 = 100K + 10K in parallel
  R4 = 1K2 + 6K8 in parallel
  All resistors 1% tolerance
