[Test-Equipment] Ekco noise source: the conclusion

[Lecroy]

Thanks for your replies.
Finally I open this source and I found a standart fluoresecnt tube 6W 21cm
length inside.
In some shops there are pocket lights with the same tube: I will buy one and
take the power supply.

Typical ENR value for such source seems to be around 15dB, I will check with
the new power supply.
