[sdiy] LCR meter recommendations sought

I'll (finally) delurk after all these years and mention that I've been VERY
happy with my L/C Meter IIB from Almost All Digital, purchased several years
ago.
There is a web site (probably more than one) with details and ordering info.
It was easy to assemble, worked the first time I powered it up and is quite
accurate (at the time time I had access to some VERY expensive L and C
measuring devices, so I could verify). Can zero out parasitics as well as do
relative measurements when I need to match parts.
This uses a programmed PIC, so the kit was convenient and a pretty good
value as I recall, maybe $100?? It's been a while since I bought it ...

Subject: [sdiy] LCR meter recommendations sought

I am looking for an LCR meter or schematic to make one if necessary.  
Preferably one that can measure the selected type without the influence of
parasitics, so for instance could measure the capacitance of a coil as well
as the real inductance and resistance. I think this means a non-resonant
type.

Thanks
