I guess I'll just live with it until I can afford a nicer scope. --- Quote from: rstofer on August 06, 2019, 06:57:29 pm ---Why do the images say DC Coupling? --- End quote --- I'm sorry, which images are you referring to? The calibration images are set to the appropriate coupling. |

I don't see anything super exotic in the calibration procedure, I'd probably just have the thing calibrated rather than replace the whole scope, assuming there's nothing serious wrong with it. |
