I have a very similar 'scope - a Conar 250. Sadly the power supply or one of the tubes blew out (no idea) and it hasn't functioned for a while. Managed to get this video before it died though:https://www.youtube.com/wat...

If I may be allowed a moment of Male Gaze, every time I scroll down I see that bazaar link and am reminded that our Editrix is a pretty lady. I shall henceforth refer to her as Becky With The Good Hair (with her permission).

Very cool... What's it connected to? And... It's not... locking on (I forget the term) very well...

Take a right at Albuquerque. Bugs says it's a left, but that's coming from CA.

I was tweaking the knobs as I recorded, mainly just to see what would happen (I'd only just managed to get the thing up and running at this point). It was running off a speaker cable direct from the stereo, through a simple voltage limiter. The limiter probably had no effect on the output whatsoever, but I wanted to make sure I didn't fry the thing right out of the gate.

What's this about seeing boys? What were we talking about, again?

Albuquerque is a long way to go to avoid South Dakota...

I’m in SoBe. Drinky Thing next time you’re up this way! And hopefully I’ll have a new job by then to pay for said drinks.

ok... Nothing cyclic to lock on to... Dang, I can't remember that adjustment... The trigger? I dunno... Possible fun video of some of your favorite songs...

One of my besties goes out there every year for their Shakespeare festival. Apparently there's a thriving gay culture, who knew?

That's what they say about Rhode Island.

Look forward to overcoming my usual misanthropy to get a bite out.

EDIT: okay, not actually a misanthrope...

Is it just me, or does the cowboy in that Boise postcard's "I" look like he's just zipping back up?

I await instructions on how to say Eugene.
