Of dozens of spam messages I filter through each day,
I did receive a welcomed piece from the folks at:
http://www.saelig.com
One item in their advertisement that caught my eye was
this oscilloscope:

I've written to the company to see if I can acquire an
instruction manual. What I'm hoping to discover is that one
may address many if not all of the 'scope's control features
through what is cited as a USB1.1 interconnect feature. I'm
hoping this includes a means by which the user captures screen
images not unlike those I often publish:

At first glance, this bargain basement instrument is almost a
clone of my Tektronix TDS210 which sold new for about 4x the
special price of $299 for the clone. Even used TDS210's sell
for twice the price of the clone.
I'll try to make an assessment of this instrument's capabilities
and report to the List before the special price offer is over
(October 31). If it's 3/4 the 'scope I think it is, I'm going
to recommend that several of my students at RACU pick one of
these up. I may add one to my bench as well.
If anyone on the List decides to jump in on this deal, I'd
appreciate some cooperative communication to educate me on
the finer details of this product. Thanks!
Watch this space.
