Ohms readings from sending unit...help

That's why I don't like digital meters for senders....they jump around a lot unless you get a perfect connection. The old analog ones are more forgiving and act more like the actual gauge.

I have a couple of Flukes which have a VERY useable bar graph, but I DO also have a couple of old "old school" meters

I'm old enough to remember when we didn't HAVE digi meters, and when they DID appear, they were big, heavy, benchtop models that cost a fortune.
