JYE DSO 138 DIY KIT 13803K (SMD Components pre-soldered)

This little kit was a lot of fun to build, and good practice for soldering tiny parts. Had to resolder one connection when it was finished to get it to work. It is a good idea to test all parts before putting together, but I found no problems with the parts! Color codes on the resistors are somewhat difficult to read because of size and washed out colors. Ohm-meter check the resistors for sure. Scope is low bandwidth, but useful for audio testing. I wish that a case was included, but I see several sources on-line.

This thing is awesome! Put it together in about 3 hours including testing each resistor. Worked right away. Tested it with my DDS signal generator. This thing is very accurate. It's not the same as my analog Tektronix scope but I don't have to count the gradients for frequency and voltage which makes it handy for quick measurements. It also doesn't go to 100Mhz but is plenty for tube and SS amp audio work which is what I do. Also can run on batteries so is great for being part of a mobile lab. What a fun gadget.

I bought this for me and my kids to experiment with together. I have three kids ages 10 -14 and they really enjoyed putting together this kit and soldering parts on. This was the first time my kids and I have done something like this. Colorful very easy to read, and understand instructions made this simple to learn and do.

OK

Still soldering it together (the well reviewed soldering iron I purchased turned out to be junk) but it was a very well put together kit! Easy instructions and all the parts were there as required.
