I've avoided owning a scope, but the recent discussion about troubleshooting 
low power from an Omni D has me rethinking.  Most of the gear I own now old, 
have managed to diagnose problems without owning a scope.  In one case, the 
problem with an old hollow-state receiver was found by poking around with a 
wooden dowel to expose a poor solder joint.  My main concern is spending more 
money on a scope than my shack is worth, or alternately spending more time 
fixing a used scope than is warranted.  
Would be curious about thoghts from others who repair their own gear about what 
minimum-required scope would be.
