Yeah, I was going to say the same thing that this thread was to simply notify people to post "Great Scott " in the comments section of the Youtube video. There is already a thread for forum entries and another one for video entries.

Great Scott!! Reading and listening comprehension would say this is where the comment belongs, since this is where the video is posted by Dave himself, and the video doesn't instruct otherwise (just says comment down below). Logic says perhaps he meant it as a comment on Youtube video itself. Intelligence says do it in both places, just to play it safe.

Odds say Dave edits the post to clarify the posting location soon.

I have been digging into radios, a function generator would come in so handy, and maybe I could finally impress you guys with a deeper understanding (and less boring questions haha), and something better to show off.
Sounds worth it, doesn't it?

Seriously, the big advantage of this scope is that they use well distinguishable colors, not like the waves/signals on the Rigol, which are a bit hard to differentiate when you have color vision deficiency. That would be really helpful to work efficiently.

Great Scott! That might finally be the solution.

Great Scott!

... he said as he reached into the dumpster, expecting to find lunch as usual but was met with something even better - it's cold hard surface, straight lines and smooth finish instantly recognised by his trained hand (even now after all these years), he knew he had hit the jackpot. Grabbing a firm hold and pulling it out, through the layers of banana skins, kitchen grub and used condoms - out it came: a brand new, shiny (though slightly smelly) sexoscope! He doesn't know why (perhaps just habit?) but he dove back in hunting for more - and more there was!
So excited he was that he entirely forgot about lunch and ran back to his secret underground lair to boast and showoff his score, only to remember that he lived alone down there, in the forgotten sewer tunnels of the city... so secretly, and yet again masquerading as his alter ego the EEVBlog guy, he posts a video online giving his lucky finds away - and giving him what he was truely wanting, friendship and connection to his kin back on the surface: something he wasn't expecting to find in any dumpster - at least, not today.

Copied from internet, to add something (not necessarily useful) to the debate.
"It is frequently assumed that Great Scott! is a minced oath of some sort, Scott replacing God. The 2010 edition of the Oxford Dictionary of English labels the expression as "dated" and simply identifies it as an "arbitrary euphemism for Great God!"."

I can't believe Dave's dumpster. I wish there was one of these magic dumpsters at my work. His must have a wormhole in the bottom of it that is tied directly to the major T&M manufacturers with a mega one that goes to Keysight.

I have never owned a Keysight scope and would really like to have one.

Brumby · « **Reply #197 on:** March 10, 2019, 04:38:32 am »

True.

That is understandable, however. I mean ... if you read how to get a free scope, you'd just jump in, wouldn't you? Especially if it's easy, free and you can see others doing it.

It's like watching lemmings.

bitseeker · « **Reply #198 on:** March 10, 2019, 04:43:41 am »

Me, specifically? Well, obviously not so blindly.

Given the number of entries in the correct thread from people with too few posts to qualify, jumping in before even completely reading the instructions seems to be a popular mode of execution.
