The self-made marble keyboard [ ./ ]   [ ../ ]

Call for help: If you are (or know) someone near Hamburg, Germany, with a recently calibrated signal generator and oscilloscope and willing to do me a favour, please contact my by mail. I would love to perform a "full calibration" on a HP 54502A scope I have bought on ebay. Thankyou.

Pieps!
