those same analyzers are about $50 on ebay now
Yes. $50 for the analyzer, which is too high a price without the pods,
then you spend 3 years and ultimately another $300 finding the pods.
I got mine on eBay. It wasn't quite as easy as Steve implied, nor as
hard as Scott implied. For about $200 or so, I got a pair of logic
analyzers, a 1630g and a 1630d. Each has a full set of pods, but an
incomplete set of grabber-adapters, so between them I have more than
one complete set of pods and adapters. Plus, I can decide whether I want
the better asynch stuff on the 1630d, or the higher number of inputs on
the 1630g :-). (Or I could put one of them back out on eBay and recoup
some of my $$. That would contribute to the problem Scott is talking
about, though.) It took me perhaps a month of watching auctions (and
getting outbid) before I got what I needed.
Scott is correct that there is a lot of stuff on eBay that isn't worth
much, because the hard-to-find bits have been removed.
Oh, and I have a lead set here that doesn't fit the 1630 series. Anyone
need a set of Gould grabber adapter clips :-)?
