 Absolutely! I use a digital storage scope for all powered waveform 
 observation to capture events for subsequent measurement and 
 analysis. However, it was through observation that I first reached 
 conclusions about gap dynamics and then confirmed them by applying 
 the scope. >>

Malcolm,
Thanks. I am trying now to evaluate gap quenching for my very sick bipolar.
Am I stuck without a storage scope? I can see the ringdown but the scope 
triggering
is very jittery. I cannot distinguish the notches or the decrement. Any 
suggestions?

Maybe the university will build you a big domed-in sports arena.
Move to Bloomington and you could use the Indiana U. basketball palace.

Happy day,
