Separated again by a common language! I have heard of an AVO forever and always thought it was a brand name. I had to see DVM and AVO in the same sentence to realize that the item was a VOM!  Live and learn.  :doh:

AVO is / was indeed a brand name. For oldies like me an AVO will forever be a moving coil instrument in a big black phenolic enclosure made by AVO Ltd (although the company had other names during its lifetime (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megger_Group_Limited#AVO).

AVO was absorbed at some point into "Megger" and they now make digital multimeters. With a nod to the past the model numbers start AVO(and then a 3 digit .number).

According to the wiki, AVO originally stood for Amps, Volts, Ohms.
