Unless you get stupidly lucky and it just needs a few lockfits replaced as my Philips PM3200X... Then again, I don't know how much more basic a vintage 'scope could get. Single trace, 10MHz, only real features are TV line/frame triggering.

Sounds like the OP would be more than suited with even a 1MHz unit for the time being & also looks as if he's kindly been sorted with just the ticket as an introduction to oscilloscopes... I do warn you though, when you get familiar with using one and realise just how useful they are you'll soon find uses that push the boundaries & will eventually want to upgrade.... I thought mine above was going to see me out but now I need (well, want!) more bandwidth and channels.
