well space is an issue for a lot of us, i really couldnt get any more scopes of the classic type - something like a rigol,yes.
but no space for any more crt scopes.
LOL... space IS an issue for me too. That's why I'm down to these absolutely ESSENTIAL few from *mumblety-seven* that I USED TO have.
in other news... my spaghetti 17B meter arrived today, along with a brand-new new radiator for my Franken-Cruiser. Both delivered to my door a day early, and a total cost of less than $65. How the hell is that even POSSIBLE?!?
In all honesty, the spaghetti 17B has quite a bit more "quality" feel than even my old "backup" $99 Sperry; that cheap vinyl boot makes a helluva difference. Large, crisp numbers, but not the broadest viewing angle... however, still easy to read even with my glasses off. I'd like a longer BL timer; but then, I'd prefer 4 AA power to support that with tolerable battery life. It's rated 1000VDC/600V Cat IV on the front with a 250V rated Fuse inside; I suppose if you stuck the leads up 4 cats' arses and probed with their noses you might could measure that with some theoretical measure of safety.
Anyhoo... my only regret now is that I didn't buy 10 more to sell; guess I'll have to fund my soldering station habit some other way.
Cheers,
