Hi all,

Thanks for all your advice. I just bought a 7904 frame, 7A26, and 7B53A
today. It should ship tomorrow. I also got a cheap $30 probe. I'll try it
out and get better ones if I am not satisfied.

When I receive the scope, If I have any problems, I'll let you know so
you know who not to buy from!

Thanks,

Sean
