I was looking at some PC based 'scopes. I have this huge Sencore SC61 unit that weighs at least 25 - 30 pounds, 60 MHZ usable to 100 MHZ. I'd like to sell it because I don't think I need to go that high doing tube radio repair/ restoration, and frankly, I don't have the room to use it. Would 20 MHZ be adequate? Hantek makes a PC based 20 MHZ unit for $69 and a 50 MHZ unit for $149. Any thoughts? Thanks! Joe
