<p>Hi Dawn --</p>
<p>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. <br>
</p>
<p>I can't get them to you for a few weeks (traveling). Let me know
if they're of interest. <br>
</p>
