  A little tip: It fails its self test in a very intimidating way if you
execute it without a test harness attached to three of the four DUT
connections.   Most people at surplus places don't know that.   'Nuff said. ;)

Mine's a cheap Chinese DT-9935 - $140.   Free shipping from most Ebay vendors.

I do like HP gear, but the 4276A is a bit steep for me :)

I got it broken for even less than that and fixed it. =)   I love doing
that...learn a lot in the process too!

(not to gloat, of course...just sharing the fun..)
