question about oscilloscopes
« on: October 03, 2005, 05:44:08 AM »

I am looking to get one that runs through my PC..I have an OLD 20Mhz scope that is just about had it..I've given up on repairing it again..and I don't think its even accurate any more..I have no experiance with PC scopes...and don't mind Kit based..

so if anyone has had experiance with one and really liked it..or has heard really good things about one..PLEASE let me know


THANKS!!!!

I havent ever used one that runs through a PC, all my experiance is with the 2 channel scopes we use for working on our radars. But  am always looking for electronics test equipment, so I will keep an eye out for you.

I know a website that has instructions on how to make an ociliscope from an old tv... do a gws for - dumpster diving tesla coil...

However that really doesn't answer your question...
