This 1970's vintage 30Mhz Dual Trace Oscilloscope is still a performer! It was quite popular in it's day, because of it's bandwidth and it's price. Many shops had one on the bench. It was manufactured in Japan and they did a good job in design and component selection. It has 3db limits of 0 to 30Mhz in DC mode, or 10Hz to 30Mhz in AC. It can display the channels independently, or simultaneously and they can be added or subtracted from each other. It can do XY mode, where channel B is the horizontal to be traced against the incoming A signal. It displays incoming signals at 5mv/div to 5v/div in 10 ranges on A and B channels. It has 20 ranges of horizontal sweep, covering .5seconds/div to .2 micro seconds/div.
It is still in good looking condition, still a very good pertinent piece of equipment usable for audio, VLF, AM broadcast band and shortwave through 30 Mhz (usable up to 50Mhz). In the video I give a tour of the scope and test it's functional capabilities.
