Chip,

My advise would be to contact Radio Amateurs (Hams) in your area and let
them know you would like to buy a used scope.  Or attend a Hamfest and look
for one.  Usually the only difference between a new and used scope is a few
dozen hours of on-time.  10  mHz bandwidth is plenty for most coiling
applications.  100 mHz let's you see rise and fall times better. 2 channels
is helpful to correlate two different signals.

Hosfelt sells inexpensive scope probes.  So does Jameco, but they are a bit
more expensive.

> I am thinking of purchasing an oscilloscope. There are many out there with
many features..10mhz-1ghz. Digital, dual trace, analog..etc. seems that the
most common are @ 100 mhz, 2 channel. Most do not include probes. These are
not cheap so, If you-all would give me some advice on buying a scope..or if
someone has one in working order for sale...let me know..Thanks in
advance...Chip Ford
