Hello everyone,
I'm nick, 21 years old, an student in mechatronics and hobbyist prototyper. I've been experimenting with electronics for about 5 years now.
I like sports such as tennis, skydiving, climbing, RC helicopter sport and fitness. other big interests of mine are my family and my cat called Nova.
I'm from Holland and have a really rough period behind me where i have been homeless due to errors of my "municipality" (translated it, don't know if that's the right word actually dutch:"Gemeente") and them taking a while to get me and my family back to normal civilization. I lost allot of my old stuffs, friends, and my old school had been lost in the process, and that's why i am building up my live again from scratch.
I love learning and have always been a bright student, i am starting/resuming my education now and also picking up my beloved hobby of Mechatronics (prototyping/making things i want).
EEVblog has been a really great support for me in the past and i have been watching Dave's video's on YT about 2 years and learned ALOT from him (more than school can within the same timeframe)
so today when i wanted to start a new project i came across a hard realization, i just NEED an oscilloscope, i have a low budget and Dave suggested ebay in his video to get a cheap 2nd hand analog 20mhz there, but i cant stop being fishy about that site, its just not trustworthy and decided to join eevblog forum and ask for advice. (don't respond to this, ill make a new thread, this is just the story how i came to joining eevblog forums
)
well i guess that's basically it for now.
thanks for having me and reading all that.
greetings
nick janse
PS: language is my worst side, sorry
