I am in Atlanta, how much you think it weighs? I found a local one for $75 but $40 is more my range these days. Old Tek tube scopes (for example) are excellent, for what they are, but nobody in their right mind would want to ship one! -- Jim ___

Rolf, Jim. This is, as described, an Olde Tek scope. It weighs probably 50# and sits on an angled cart that has openings for two extra plug-ins. That said, it works and has a calibrated sweep etc. Though the last time it was calibrated Pontious was a pilot! Fred Moir Lynn MA Dinosaur juice in

Seconds? Division? Thats fancy talk. When I mean antique I mean Korean? war. Here are some pics. http://winmutt.com/images/scope/ I did think about using AC 60hz as a calibration. Pretty sure the CRT on this thing will give you cancer if you stand infront of it heh. Thanks. -Rolf Jim

Seconds? Division? Thats fancy talk. When I mean antique I mean Korean? war. Looks like it has untriggered sweep. By this I mean that it's very hard to get a stable waveform without careful fiddling of the vernier dial. (It might be synchronized sweep, which could exhibit a bit of a 'notch'

I need to figure out if I am generating a 140hz signal with an antique of a scope. Scope does not have any fancy setting like time. It is a navy relic. Hos do I go about measuring the frequency? I have a signal showing 3 cycles with 100hz sweep. Do I need a better scope? -Rolf
