Meters for modulation

What are you all using (if any) to read modulation? I know some radios come with dual meters. But I'm running a Yaesu FT897D as my primary rig and a Palstar cross needle meter. I think it would be nice to have a meter to read modulation as well.
Input much appreciated!!
 

If and when I am concerned about modulation levels I use either my oscilloscope or my Wavetek 4101. Modulation meters are not that accurate in all honesty and usually need to be recalibrated when changing power levels.
