I also have scope or two and I suspect most members do. There has been a
changeover from CRT to LCD (just like TV's) and there are lots of CRT scopes
gathering dust. Note though that for about $350, you can buy a new LCD scope.
(Rigol, etc.). I don't know what level of Impoverishment we're talking. I
could spare an analog scope to good home.Sent from my Verizon, Samsung Galaxy

donation to local high school
Hi Dawn --
Can you be more specific about the term "new-ish." I have a
couple of analog Tektronix scopes that aren't doing anything
interesting. I also have a few scopes from the dawn of the digital
age, when they were trying to figure out how to do digital
oscilloscopes. Mostly 2 channel, 100 MHz sort of scopes.
I can't get them to you for a few weeks (traveling). Let me know
if they're of interest.

Hi All!
I'm wondering
if anyone on this list might know of a potential donor of a
new-ish entry-level oscilloscope to a local high school?
My son is the
new Physics teacher at Hillside High School in Durham. The
school hasn't had a Physics teacher for the past few years,
and the state of their lab supplies is pretty dismal. Many
items belong in the 'antique' category.
He's
received some money for student supplies for specific
labs, but is now working on acquiring more general-purpose
equipment.
It seems
likely that some local business/organization would be
willing to donate a relatively inexpensive oscilloscope to
the cause, but he has no idea who to approach.
Does anyone
on the list have suggestions that I could pass along to
him?
Thanks very
much for any info you can provide!
