Re: Digitizer on eBay
Lynn, If you are talking about the 7912, it is good for making extemely fast, single-shot measurements. Very handy for things like nuclear explosions . . . when you need to catch the EMP on your

Re: Digitizer on eBay
I guess that conversation took place before I joined. Could someone tell me - briefly - what the digitizer is good for? And what else would one need to go with it to make it useful? P.S. I recently
