You're amazing. You don't even know what equipment, qualifications
or needs he has, yet you're right there with THE answer. Lets take
an example. I have a 20 year old Hitachi scope as you know, the
voltage cal is way off (~20%) in a couple of ranges. Are you
suggesting that I should drag it across town, spend $200 and be
without it for 2 weeks just to get it adjusted by some obstinate,
E-1 grade line tech, instead of using a brand new DMM w .03%
accuracy to tweak it myself? I'm quite sure that my Micronta is up
to the task to be honest.


You are to be disappointed. The scale dial on that scope is likely
fitted with resistors, and one of them has shifted, which shifts all
the dividers on the dial below it.

Given that the symptom is not as you describe, then I figure you are
probably wrong, again. If so, I imagine I can fix it.

It is not a calibration issue. It is a repair issue.

You just know it all don't you?

So shove it up your ass, you E-1 grade dip****.

Just had to get that anal jab in there, huh?

Your micronta? Bwuahahahahahah!

Since 3% accuracy is considered good in the scope world, I think it would do
fine.
