I just received an oscilloscope I bought off eBay. I'm trying to test
it but can't seem to get any vertical deflection. I setup a little LED
flasher with a 16F88 and put it in INTRC+ClkOut. When I measure the
clock frequency with my multimeter I get 62kHz. But I can't get the
scope to show any deflection. I was expecting to get a square wave
with a peak voltage of 5v.

I don't have the manual. It's a Tektronix 2336 100mhz. Any ideas?

Since all the other posts haven't seemed to get you anywhere, find someone
in your local community who knows how to use a scope and ask for their help.
Suggested sources: vo-tech, commmunity college, ham radio operators, TV
shop. Check the yellow pages. Google ARRL to find local Hams.
Post the city you live in and there may even be someone on this newgroup who
could help you.
Someone will at least be able to tell you if you bought a defective piece of
equipment.
