Every time I go down one of those rabbit holes it's always "but for $100 more..." and before you know it I'm looking at Siglents or old HP stuff that won't fit on my bench.
I really wanted ~$130 worth, and knew there are user hacks to fix some cut corners in the FY6800, but it seems crazy to pay that much for them. Argh.

8 followers · 5 posts · Server mastodon.radioI’ve come to the realization that working with electronics is as good as the test equipment you have to verify it 😅
On that note: does anyone have good recommendations for a simple LCR meter that’s affordable for the average ham? My multi meter can only do R and maybe large C but no L.

I need assistance on this one. I was gifted a bunch of electronics surplus today. One of the things in the collection was this analog meter. My question: What would you use this meter to measure ? It has a very odd scale to me. #electronics #testequipment #hamradio

Most of my modern gear I connect to via ethernet (maybe USB). Trying to gauge how popular GPIB still is in the hobbyist/home space. Please feel free to boost to help get more responses.

Do you use GPIB in your personal home -lab?
