For the last 10 years I have been using the website listed below to follow all things solar. Even though this site was designed for ham radio operators such as myself, the content is outstanding.

Re: Review of 3 Coronado 90's

Yes Mark and Alexandra, I agree with both of you. That is the problem with buying a Ha scope - the variability of the performance of the scope.
