Hi chaps,
I'm getting two different displays for the same waveform. I'm looking
at the output of a slightly dirty 40Mhz oscillator. I've come across
this knob called "holdoff" which when in one position, displays the
wave as a single, sharp, slightly irregular sine wave; but in another
position shows about 4 or 5 distinct, regular sine waves all
superimposed on each other, in phase but with slightly differing
amplitudes. Which is the *real* waveshape that accurately reflects
what the oscillator's actually putting out?
I don't understand what half the knobs and buttons on my scopes are
actually supposed to do. :-/
<sigh....>
