Quick one for our US friends. 34401A’s at $280:https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F303494509729I would buy one at that price in an instant but I’ll be mugged for £66 import which annoys me.
Regarding the Metrix and Yokogawa scopes a page or two ago: Do you remember the Pixar short film "Lifted" and the spacecraft control panel?

I'm afraid to ask... mnem*missing furry family a bit myself right now*we had a rough patch this morning but she's doing okay now. way more good moments than bad so far and i've been able to re-arrange life so i am mostly home to take care of her as required. mostly just trying my best not to miss her before she's gone, you know?

Mind over matter, I have three 6.5 digit meters as long as they agree with my 5.5 digit meters +/- 2 digits, I'm happy. Think of the extra resolution as a faster means of trend spotting and you'll be OK. Hell if I can get a 7.5 or a 8.5 digit meter I would grab if I could afford, but I would keep my philosophy the same.
Any one have anything to say about Tektronix 2754 ? Wiki -> http://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/2754As I rarely see discussion about it, even in this forum.
