By the way, one more comment on Tek scopes .. I loved the 475, REALLY loved the
2465, but I can barely tolerate Tek's DSOs... Maybe I'm just to dumb to use
them, but I think the menu structures in most of the Tektronix digital scopes
are non-intuitive and obtuse. If you want a really neat digit
Poor John asked if he could use spectrogram as an oscilloscope, and that's
morphed into recommendations to buy a 400 MHz scope! In my last job I was the
video amplifier design guy, and in that role I designed video amplifiers to
drive CRTs in high-resolution industrial computer displays. Over

I have a 475 with the DM44 option, and a scad of different probes.
It is on "semi-permanent" loan from my company (they have no need for it
any longer). I have never used the DM44, but what looks interesting is
that it will measure temperature in degrees C. I have the temperature
probe and w

Yep, Tek scopes are the most popular and they are very good. In the 1970's
when I was running a television production studio we had to smug

A really good tutorial on scopes is Tektronix's The XYZ's Of Using A

Jim, AB4CZ gave you an excellent summary.
If you think you'd like to use the 'scope for general bench work to look at
waveforms, etc., on HF gear, then look for one with at least a 200 MHz
bandwidth.
Smaller bandwidth scopes are fine for a simple check on your transmitter
waveform, but one of th
