Yes that's the one. The analog is preferred but Radio Shack puts it out, then discontinues it, then people jump and scream for them to bring it back, they do, then discontinue it again and again. The Analog is easier to read and more steady than the digital, but you will get fantastic results with the digital, considering the analog ones are like finding gold.

I recommend the $50 Galaxy Audio DIGITAL SPL meter that does 0.5dB increments:

that galaxy one says it only goes down to 31.5hz. How low does the rat shack one go?

It has been measured down to 16 Hz but a correction factor is needed

Buy both the digital and analog. Then, you can measure the spl max that your sub puts out when stuff explodes or the analog to level match and do a Fr curve if need be
