Xprotolab Specs

[Richard O'Neill]

  Yesterday my Xprotolab arrived, last night I coupled it to my DX 
crystal set diode output. I was thrilled with its performance but for 
this application I could use another 10x input gain to better view very 
weak signals. Still, a cute little toy to play with. I'm now pondering 
possible applications.

  Brian, your idea of a 'Wrist-O-Scope' seems doable. 8-)   I wonder how 
it would perform as a mini TV screen? Viewing could be a challenge 
without an attached magnifier. If electronics continue shrinking we'll 
eventually implant the stuff, just like the Borg whom we are beginning 
to resemble.
Resistance is futile - you /will/ be assimilated!
