To entertain fans at sporting events, such as baseball, basketball backboards, palm trees, hockey and soccer goals are provided as targets for fans to participate by tossing objects at the target. Targets are strapped to a person moving through the stands. In one configuration the target is attached to a backpack and raised over the head using a telescoping mechanism attached between the target and the backpack worn by the operator. In another configuration the target is attached to a helmet worn by the person working the crowd. Both the helmet and backpack arrangement use mounting brackets for attachment of the target members. To telescope the target overhead from the backpack, concentric tubes are extended from within each other using a pulley and cable system controlled by the operator.

A new microprocessor controlled digital multimeter offers significant advantages to the user. Automatic calibration allows a new reference IC board to be inserted and because of such calibration the multimeter is instantly ready for use.

Method of automatically calibrating a microprocessor controlled digital

A new microprocessor controlled digital multimeter offers significant advantages to the user. Automatic calibration and correction routines ensure long term stability and simplify maintenance; self diagnostics greatly help troubleshooting and even warn of impending failures; software implementation of logic design simplifies hardware, improves reliability and adds capabilities such as fast auto ranging and software I/O control; the ability to process data permits averaging, linearization and normalization of input measurements, minimum/maximum storage and limit detection.
