Oscilloscope Recommendations:Caution

[Neil Morrison]

Nearly all these scopes have a calibrator built right in. Measure the
voltage with a DMM and you can guess the correct value, i.e. if it's close
to half a volt it's probably 1 volt PP. A VTVM with PP scales makes it
easier. You can watch for a manual on eBay too. I would trust the
calibrator.
