Bio: I am really a novice builder relative to most out there and more as a hobby but I guess you can say a serious hobby. I have built the Ultimate amp starting from a JCM800 with power scaling, extra gain stage, aux power supply, and modified to take any octal power tube based on Kevin's works. This amp is really the latest and greatest for me and galactic grounding from TUT book and am extremely happy with the build. Ultra quiet and sounds awesome the way I like it.

I'm really interested in learning how to use an oscilloscope. Mostly now to be able to signal trace and troubleshoot. There is an old antique shop that sells alot of things here called A1. They have a heathkit 01-102 for about $130. It still has the manual in mint. Is this something I could start with? I would think I also would need a signal generator.

There are so many options which I see are digital oscilloscopes. But I'm see alot of people using analog oscilloscopes for guitar amps. Why analog? Are they more reliable in the long term?
