Been reading a lot lately about scopes and how great they are, I agree. I
got mine free from a guy who's
wife threatened to leave him unless he disposed of some of his junk..(My dad
always calls my wife an
electronics widow !)  It's an old Dual trace scope, all modular so you can
remove the y1, y2 and timebase
modules are replace them.. packed with valves and it takes about 5 minutes
to warm up :-) Made by a company
called "Solartron" - don't even know if they're around anymore(?) Might even
be considered an antique by now.

It's obviously not a DSO given its age :) but it has a nice feature which I
haven't found while looking for a
decent used one- Z modulation (brightness). Is this a common feature on
scopes nowadays or not?

I've been meaning to build a DSO module for it for .. well years.. but I
think it would be for fun rather than
being particularly useful.. Don't think I'm up for building something that
stores 1G samples.
