Without going on e-bay, how much can I get for an NLS
model 215 scope with
dead batteries?
Usually a working 215 (maybe dead batts) goes for $100-125....
I have missed a couple of them at that price.
Aside from the newer LCD scope/meter combos, the NLS instruments
are hard to beat for field work, IMHO.
Should I bring it to VCF?
Case? Probes? Inst manual? Battery charger? Yeah, bring it...
the Hell w/eBay. I'd like to check it out.

NLS Scope most common fault: they use a lot of 4066 CMOS switches
to perform various functions... these seem to be particularly
vulnerable for some reason.
If anyone finds a 'dead' NLS mini-scope for cheap, buy it and then
check out the 4066s... it's almost always the problem.
