Here's a thought for you. If you don't get QST
then you should sign up and get it. Every month
they have a tutorial on basic electronics using
your basic meter, function generator, scope etc to
make measurements. I would assume from your
comments that you don't have much experience using
test equipment so these tutorials are a good way
for you to learn and have some fun doing it too.

Yes, this is good advice.
Actually I have been getting QST since I passed my Ham exam a few month ago
but had not really started reading it seriously (now that I am semi snowed
in it will be a great read).
But you are right, the hints and kinks section and in particular the
apparently rather new "Hands-on radio" section are quite useful.
Maybe I was concentrating too much on the scope, but if I just patiently
read QST for a while I will probably get all the info I ever wanted.
