My $25 Scope and $25 Radio something-something I haven't quite figured out yet.

And people say you can't get a scope for $25... pfft.  I have a Atten ADS1102CAL already and I just added these beasts to my collection --   A Tektronix 547 4Ch 50MHz Oscilloscope, and a Singer Gertsch  FM10CS Frequency meter/ Signal generator.  $25CND each.  All Manuals were included too.  I'm soo excited!!!  

I nice older man was getting rid of them out of his basement.  I happily answered his kijiji (aka. Craigslist Canada) ad and picked them up. 

They will need a good cleaning, but both seem to be in working order. Well, he said there was an issue with one of the 4 channels on the scope, but, I can handle that for $25.

Geez this sort of dates me but I used an FM10 in the course of my work - a long time ago. I guess you could call it an early communications service monitor. The signal generator of course was useful for testing receiver sensitivity and netting crystal oscillators, the zero center meter for transmitter frequency offset, and the CRT for measuring transmitter FM deviation or AM modulation.  By the late 70's/early 80's this unit was overshadowed by the Cushman, Motorola and IFR service monitors that had better specs.

But you got a good deal if it works.
