Hi Patrick

I noticed you received several replies on sources of material for learning
to use the oscilloscope. It will take  a lot of patience and effort to get
the hang of it, but in the end you will wonder how you could ever have done
without it. I have been in the electronics field more years than I care to
mention, but in all that time I found the oscilloscope to be indispensable.
Recently I found it most useful in testing Tesla Coils.

Cheers

Chuck
