Hi Bill,
	The Tek 7000 series are good, plentiful, and reasonable, using readily 
available plug-ins.  And they're a bit smaller than the older 400 
series.  A "cheapie" (usually) Tek is the T932A, 35mc, small, 2-channel, 
no plugins needed. I have one in the upstairs shack, with a 7000 in the 
shop.  Get good probes for whatever you end up with.
	You'll find lotsa uses for one when you get to play with it.
73,

Al, W8UT
