Awhile back, at the expermental music garage sale in Chicago, I bought this cool looking device. It came in this nice metal case. I was planning on just using the case, but what I found inside was interesting and I decided to leave as is for now…..
so here are some pics.

Awhile back, I had recieved an oscilloscope from someone. a Conar model 255 solid state oscilloscope.

It worked ok but I couldnt trust the readings from it or even the voltages it displayed. I could get basic wave forms displayed and thats all I really needed it for. As time went on it started acting up. Certain setings would not display, simple sqaure waves had major overshoot …… I could go on with so many of the issues that started to appear. So today I sat down and did the calibration from the manual. What a pain.
total time spent on it was about an hour and I did the best I could.
I still need need to buy 2x LM733 and a 741 or a better drop in replacement, also a few capacitors and transistors. But those will have to wait till I am employed again.
here are a few pics of the internals
