Maybe should be called an oscillometer not an oscilloscope, as there's no screen (scope).

- aix1 3y agoI guess one could argue it's "bring your own screen" rather than "no screen". Also "scope" (ancient Greek σκοπέω) has a pretty broad meaning of "to look, look at, behold; examine, inspect"[1] (gyroscope, stethoscope, horoscope etc).
