Hi,
I just purchased a GW INSTEK GOS-6101 100 MHz oscilloscope from ebay (see eBay.com.sg: GW GOS-6101 100 MHz OSCILLOSCOPE (item 310304963347 end time Mar 25, 2011 17:19:51 SGT)) . The price was very good (26 USD) and the item seems to be working. However, when operating, it seems very noisy. The culprit turns out to be the cooling fan at the back of the oscilloscope. The fan is small but generates more noises than that of a computer power supply and as noisy as the fan in my room. Is this normal?
