Please pardon me for butting in here...
I'm a novice looking for something better than my ancient Radio Shack
soldering pencil.  After looking around, I'm coming to the conclusion
that a Hakko 936 is a decent soldering station at a decent pricxe.

Hello. I have recently acquired a Philips PM 3232 Oscilloscope. It did not
come with the necessary transformer to provide the 24VDC needed to run, but
upon openign a small compartment on the bottom, I think it may also accept
AC 110V mains input too. I am not sure where I could ...

I stopped by harbor Freight Tools last wk and bought a Cen-Tech DMm for
$3.99, which is even cheaper than the ones I got thru the mail.  And
that's with a 9V battery.  I like the separate on/off switch, because
you don't have to crank the rotary switch halfway around to turn it off.

I am looking for some equipment that is _very_ sensitive and is capable of
measuring _very_ small changes in electrical fields and magnetic fields? The
device must be able to record the measurements real time.
What should I be looking for?

For an experiment, a colleague in the Toronto area urgently needs
access to an oscilloscope with realtime multiplication (e.g.
Tektronics TDS-1012, 2012, 2014 or any model with a FFT option
which would have the multiplier function in its mathematics

this is the first time i send a message on this news group, buy the way i'd
like to know :
if it's possible to remote controlling XP, buy sending intentional EMI using
computer comunication protocol.

Does any body have a cct diagram of a PIC Microchip programmer capable
of programming 16c57's. There was one published in ETI magazine I
think about 1995. designed by Robin Abbott.
Alternativley, does anybody have for sale or knows where I can

Does anyone knows something about this?????
Can you give me some schematics or a webpage??? where can i found some more
information????
Thanks

Thought someone might be interested in this, the tube or hi-voltage cap
might be useful for a project?  Should go for cheap, will ship
individual components.

Dear techies,
I have (hopefully) repaired a junked Gould 400 DSO and wondered if
anyone has an electronic copy of the manual?
Also...the 'scope has an RS423 I/O connector on the rear, does this mean

...or the complete Service Manual for it.
The Voltage Section functions no more and the design
is a bit wired for me, not a really straightforward design for
a voltage generation.

Hi.  I need to interface two devices, both offering a RS-232 port.  The
general idea is to read the output (weight) from an electronic scale
using it's RS-232 port, compose a string (containing control codes and
the message to be printed) and send the string to an industrial ink-jet
