[TenTec] OT: Scopes

[kc9cdt at aol.com]

Buy from a reputable dealer not at the hamfest IF you want more 
assurance.
Actually when you get at least a working (check it out as much as you 
can there) scope at a hamfest....being perectly calibrated in most 
cases is not critical for our work.
That assumes you talking boat anchors, like I work on.

Please excuse me  if I missed it... but I don't recall anyone explaining
to the unwashed...

	What can one do to avoid getting a lemon or broken
	or poorly calibrated,  or whatever broken,  oscilloscope
	at the local hamfest ?

This item is beyond my current expertise, but it may not be
forever beyond my grasp.    How do I avoid getting stung  (other
than to buy something new?)    What do I look for if I don't have
my favorite Elmer on hand ?

Thanks.
