content: I bought thisLeader LBO-325, 60 MHz Mini Oscilloscopeabout 20 years ago in the USA but have not used it much in the last few years.It is a small analog scope, only 230 mm wide.It was kind of an amazing scope, when it came on the market, built to the highest quality standard of Leader at the time. Even today, the knobs just feel like high quality.The scope is is perfect working condition.Only problem: It has 110V / 60 Hz input.Although, I am pretty sure it can be rewired to 230V, I can not say that with 100% certainty.I have been using it in the lab in Germany with a 230V to 115 V transformer.The user / service manual is easily found online as PDFThis is a perfect scope for a beginnerand so in the price.Asking price is Euro 50 plus shipping cost anywhere in the world.Best probably would be a beginner in Germany for easy and low cost shipping.

content: This "little" scope has a more valuable front panel (in mechanical sense) than modern $10k scope.

content: D'oh! Are you trying to tempt me, HV?I would worry about the CRT tube being shipped so far, although it does seem to be well mounted inside. I'll keep my eyes open for a local one to come along.

content: OK, Here is the temptation:Leader LBO-325, 60 MHz Mini Oscilloscope (LIKE NEW)Same as before ... but:1. The plastic protection foil was still on the housing (I just removed it)2. Was may be used once or twice in its life and was only kept in a dry lab cabinet3. Comes with an original display hood4. Comes with two new original Leader Probes5. Literally is like new !AGAIN Caution: 115V AC !!!(May be switchable to 230V)Asking price is Euro 150 plus shipping cost anywhere in the world.That price is so low, I think it still fits in to the budget of a beginner
