Just realized you can't even see the actual soldering station so you probably meant the rack of test equipment :)

It's "general lab stuff" -- old oscilloscope (which I think the trigger is messed up on? I need to investigate), a few power supplies, and a signal generator. I'd like a nice multimeter and a logic analyzer too but I haven't had reason to ask for them yet. Maybe soon, though, if things keep up this way.

One of the other research groups I work with works at the university's "electromagnetic compatibility" lab which is about half a warehouse out in the middle of nowhere and goddamn do they have some fancy stuff out there.
