I got lucky - the "broken, unknown state" oscilloscope I got off eBay that cost US $80,000 new only needed a $16 part replaced.

Feast your eyes on some pretty awesome screenshots. :blobpats: to the first person who knows and can explain the physics behind the first 2 pictures.

@Zoonie about $500 US. Spending that much on a new scope gets you about 10% of the bandwidth and 25% of the sample rate.

@wohali fantastic! It is ridiculous how few people know how to mend electronic products these days. Which makes for a good bargain :)

@wohali that's a nice thing to say, thank you! It's been my online icon since about 1997. I drew it along with a bunch of other icons for an 'online diary', hand-built in html 1.01! Heh.

@Zoonie <3 here's the one of me that I drew about 15 years ago, I use it many places.
