Welcome to oscilloscope workshop ‘School of Measurement’ in Nokia, Oulu: 27.3.2025
This is a workshop event: all participants would be doing measurements according to planned exercise instructions in groups of 2 – 3 persons. Each individual exercise takes approximately 1 h 15 min.
Rohde & Schwarz personnel would be facilitating the event and helping participants during measurement exercises.
