Re: good scopes for coiling

Hewlett-Packard signal generators work well.  Try to get a tube model with a
20 volt P-P output.

I'm looking to buy a scope and/or frequency generator for coiling and
general use, but I don't really have any idea about manufacturers/models
etc - what are some good ones to look for? I've read that the older tube
scopes are better than modern solid state ones for the stressful
environments generally encountered in high voltage work, and given that I'm
still new to coiling/hv devices, something that has a good chance of
surviving a few careless errors/poorly designed experiments would be good.
Relatively low cost would also be nice. Thanks.
