Hello.
I'm looking to buy a good used oscilloscope, and was wondering
if someone out there could give me some ideas on what I should
be looking for.  I'm going to be making general use of the
scope, TV work, etc, some digital circuits.  Just a good all
around general purpose scope for a reasonable price. Reasonable
means $1500.00 or less.  What is the minimum bandwidth I should
consider?  Any specific models you could recommend?  Naturally,
I like the Tektronix and HP models over the GoldStar... But...
Thanks for you pointers,
Russ Crisp

Hi,
I think I could use some help.
The story:
A friend of mine gave me a present: An old oscilloscope he found
on his attric. I was VERY pleased :-)
The small problem:
It's a kit, I'll have to put the parts together first. It looked like an
easy match ( A soldering iron doesn't frighten me). I was optimistic :-|
The big problem:
I havn't found any sign of a part-list, electrical circuit description or 
drawing yet. And ( I inspected the box real good) there won't be either.
I don't dare to start anything without. I am :-(
Question:
So if anyone of you did this kit or has any information about how all these
zillion parts - nicely packed in plastic bags - are intended to be put together,
I would be pleased to share the info (and stand for photocopies etc. of course). 
Clues:
Oscilloscope ite model 255
             Conar Instruments
             Washington, D.C. 20016
(printed on the back plate)

Mail me (instead of Re:) if possible.

With a faint hope,
Harald.
