Use a mulitmeter and ohm them. A good gp will ohm at 1 to 3. Any thing above or below that range and its bad.

genuine questions deserve genuine answers,army manuals have a good saying:next step is to see your supervisor.in our case the supervisor would be the more knowledgable upper crust of this highly regarded web site.I hope when my newby questions come up i can be afforded a reply other than a redirect

Davesbf and anyone else, If I answer you with a "redirect" or an answer that does not help you with the information you are looking for, then just say so and I'll try to get more specific. I would bet most others here will do the same. It is hard, from a brief post, to know exactly what others know or need.

Many of the people that ask questions, do not even know there are Tm's or know how to search the forums.
