Went through the first two videos that Cougar posted the links to a couple of times and was then able to get the attached traces at two different time rates (see, already using the lingo). Seeing how to do it in the videos really helps! The leads are attached to the output trans output leads with the speaker attached as well. Shorting plug is in the input rca of the amp. This isn't quite what I expected to see. I thought it would be a nice sine wave with the some junk on it from ac. What am I seeing here? Looks like some superimposed sine waves plus some spikes. Could the spikes be the ripple? Maybe the 3rd video tells how to interpret what you get on the scope.
