I came across this interesting article by Jim Williams and some other guy, some time ago.

Different AC measuring topologies are compared.
The 8920 fares extremely well, and yes, I agree, its a hideous looking thing!
It's a pity they didn't 'name and shame' all the meters.
8060As are very useful, if rather fiddly to use. Certainly pretty flat to 100kHz or so, IIRC. However, I much prefer my Tektronix TX3 to any Fluke I've ever used; certainly better made, well, that's bygone Tek for you.
