new setup for workbench suggestions.

[krappleby]

Hi guys,

I'm Keith looking to get fully immersed into electronics once again (I did many years ago as a 17 year old, and at the time built a simple but effective house alarm system, that is still used today) and I'm looking to set up a new workbench, and was wondering what suggestions would be best for the setup, Oscilloscope, power units etc.. IM looking to spend around 1000 max, for the full setup..

Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.. (ps.. the 1000 is just for the bench not for the electronic components.. ) I would like suggestions on software etc, too, I have a laptop which is pretty new, and will be used for deisgn, just need some decent software to use with it.. and tools.. Feel free to post ebay links, or amazon links etc.

All suggestions appreciated..

I am looking to create a couple of circuits.

the first one (I am a ghost hunter) is a EmF recorder, (sound based). I want to create a small device, that using a emf receiver can both receive and send EMF signals and at the same time send that signal to a sound recorder and my headphones.. I'm assuming that I would need to place some sort of amp on the feeds, but I will look into that later..

anyway, look forward to your suggestsions

PS>> KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK EEVBlog..
