Its OK.use a TEKTRONIX 475B - absolutely the BEST scopes you can get
Very good thread, I have not got thru it all yet, I just got off the phone with Bob Latino about building my dynamo st70 kit for me.
He is a really nice guy and gets back to you very fast.
I sent an email and within an hour I got a phone call from him, I was not expecting that.
Turns out it's not one of his kits but he assured me it was not a problem , that he could have one of his tech's do the job for me.
I explained to him ,I had stripped down a heath kit w4m and buggered the practice round up so I would much rather keep practicing on junk and let them do this one right.
I'm sure if I keep practicing and reading I will be able to get one going.
I decided I was going to learn this, if you own something you should have some knowledge of how to trouble shoot it and repair it, especially with vintage gear.
I bought all the items on the above list last year and have been side tracked, the biggest stumbling block I ran into was a how to on the oscilloscope, so I will be checking out the listed web site on that.
This is a great forum to be a member of, so much knowledge in one place, thanks guys.
I have my amp back now and Bob and his tech did a super job on the build, I could not ask for better more knowledgable people to deal with.Did you finished building it? I got his 120 VTA. Can't go wrong with his kit , I also have his partner pre-amp build by Don sachs . Wonderful combo.
Does anybody have one of those M328 transistor tester clones? I know they can check capacitors, but are they useful for anything else we would need? I'm still a newbie at all this, so I figured it would be fun to assemble the kit and allow me to brush up on my soldering. It was a fun little build, and cheap too. Worthwhile, or a waste of time?
The NiCads took a dump in mine. Beware!this is a very useful scope for Audio repair.

this is a very useful Multimeter, including true RMS, for Audio repair.

All in one: the little Tek 213. It works also on the road, and ground lifted, bec. there are inside NiCd Batteries.
