Re: [TCML] Oscilloscope

["Barton B. Anderson" <bartb@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can't view amplitude, but you can view frequency. Don't connect the 
probe to the coil (you'll fry the scope immediately). Just hang a little 
wire in the probe end and a good distance out of spark range. If a spark 
finds the probe, you'll fry the scope.

Take care,
Bart
