Its has a row of little surface mount LEDs to replicate meter movement. 
Each little LED represents 2 cents. Its quite easy to find the centre 
position even though in theory that central LED covers +/-1 cents.

No, thats the really expensive one. I think they call that the DT-1 Pro. 
As an eighteen year old cheapskate I bought the cheapest one I could 
find that had the full chromatic scale on it. It fits in your pocket and 
is exactly the same size as a compact cassette. It even fits in your 
cassette drawers.

Here's a wee pic of it:

I bet it has exactly the same electronics in it as the more expensive 
rack one. :-)

The reason I bought it was mainly for tuning a real analogue sequencer I 
built to drive my modified Moog Rogue. I sold the Rogue for 40 quid in 
1989 when I got my D-50. [oh dear...]
