@BG: The old digital scopes were a nightmare to use (tens of buttons in one large matrix, lot of menus, submenus and sub-sub menus,...), before the makers learn, than it would be way more practical to keep the basic controls in the "old analog" style (so one rotating knob to time base, other to vertical range, another for trace shifts,...)...

A number of digital multimeters, some Simpson 8455 telephone circuit testers (a 45V resistance meter and a 0V to 100V potential meter in one unit), an Elenco MO1252 analog scope, an Owon PDS6062S digital scope and a Dranetz 626 mains analyzer.  This is by no means an exhaustive list.

Way too many..........

Latest is a Brymen TBM251 I got Friday......

Also assorted digital multimeters, a UT81B scopemeter and I bought a $3 cheapie that is destined to test the output side of a neon transformer......probably once only.

You can acually do that without destroying the meter :

What length of arc the NST cn strike and draw ? It would be on the order of 1kv/1mm in air for striking

Now connect to it a chain of 1 meg resistors (so that they can hold the output voltage) and measure mA in them
