look . he goes to school ,works a job want to learn something to try to get forward.

i emailed him and he asked if the scope was analog. So he wasn't even 'demanding'.

Anyway. He'll get a nice 54600 series Agilent scope 60MHz two channel 100Ms/s and two probes ( not agilents but decent probes )  a power supply and bag of thru hole components i have laying around.

Makes me some room in my lab.

Thanks man, I appreciate it :(

Only amateurs use scopes. Real engineers put their finger on the wire to feel the waveform.

I remember wanting a DMM soooooo bad.  I got my first job at 11 and saved for about 2 years to get my Kelvin model 200 meter (I believe that's what it was called).  Felt so good!  I used that meter for more than a decade.  I wish you luck.  Things have changed and there is a lot more equipment out there than there used to be, but with the (real) unemployment rate here nearing 14%, people seem to be holding on to things and asking a pretty penny when they do sell them.

Keep an eye on craigslist and ebay, and in the mean time, save every penny you can.
