GHz Oscope

If anyone has a GHz oscope laying around, and you will rent time on it to
me, please email me.

I'm in the South Bay area of CA.

So you gave up trying to use your 100MHz scope? :->

I do hope you have the probes to suit (a 1GHz scope goes not
nessecarily come with suitable probes) and know how to properly probe a
1GHz signal.
Oh, and if you use a 1GHz bandwidth scope to measure a 1GHz signal,
it's going to be 3dB down in amplitude.

I'm sure there are many rental companies around that will rent you such
a scope, there are here in Australia anyway.
