And did you subtract the internal resistance of the meter when you tested the ground?  I know with mine, when I test with the probes together I get  a 0.8 ohm resistance...so I have to subtract that from any resistance measurement I make with it.

I recently bought a Rat Shack DMM (on sale). http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&category%5Fname=CTLG%5F011%5F008%5F002%5F000&product%5fid=22%2D816

When I press the leads together hard enough the resistance shows to be 0.0. Is this DMM subtracting its own internal resistance before displaying a number?

Never mind that last post. It read 0.0 for a few seconds, then it showed 0.3. My bad.
