Bob Lee recently gave an e-mail address for the TDS-1 and
there have been some discussion recently regarding results.
I became interested enough to decide to buy one and found
Hanna Instruments on the web.  For those interested, the
TDS-1 is for sale for $14.90.  For details, check the
following URL:  http://www.hannainst.com/info/tdspromo.htm

The following is text copied from that page:
