Your attempt at applying a trade mark to that word is about 45 or 50 years
late, that was the term used to describe a rotary transformer used to

Tektronx.

information is displayed by

Yes it is. The learning part however, does separate the wannabees from the
doers though.
well, reading a stereo scope is not too hard really. even if you
only pick out some obvious aspects, it's still useful.

ntsc one, but i believe the pal ones have similar output) seems to

NTSC the abbreviation for "never the same color"?
