Thank you for this confirmation!  That's exactly what I want.  I also
just noticed that one customer review implies it has no connectivity.

Now I haven't bought it yet because I've been a little afraid of its
precision.  Sniper, in another post in this thread, complained about a
digital one he bought.  I'm often so suspicious of digital equipment.
But I guess spending money and discovering that perhaps was bad
investment is part of learning what to buy.  I will try to test it
somehow, but I think the fact is that we can't buy things with 100%
certainty.  Some risk is always involved.
