[Elecraft] Recomendations on Oscilloscopes

[Neal Campbell K3NC]

One great place to look is www.govliquidation.com.

Its an auction site for the liquidation of government assets. I  
bought a 465B in great shape for 65 bucks. Its a little more involved  
than e-Bay (but only a little). The involvement is that you have to  
arrange for a pickup and shipment of whatever you buy. I think I paid  
50 bucks to have someone go to the site, box it and send it via  
fedex. Its not a big deal as there are lists of companies that do  
this for every site selling goods, you just have to email and get the  
best price on boxing and shipping.

I have bought a couple of things off the site and am very pleased  
with it. Take a look!
