Dual trace or dual channel?

There is a difference you know... ;O)

Dual channel - sure. Dual trace, I'm not so sure it's worth the money.

I'm sure I could have you flooded with pictures outside and inside one or a
pair of good old Tektronix dual-trace scopes fairly quickly if I asked for it.

Cheers,
Magnus - with a 7 channel oscilloscope
