Measuring Inductance?

Derrick	Measuring Inductance? Regarding my question on were to find a 650mH inductor for my sad sounding wah, Paul Francis Perry suggested I use a multi meter with "Bells+Whistles" to measure the inductance of inductors I might already have or when making my own. This would be great, however........ how do I measure inductance with a multi meter? I would love to find or wind my own inductors, so can I do this.....or is this a much more comlex test, like with a scope for example. And Q???????? Thanks, Derrick.
