Thanks everyone, and AndrewJ in particular. Next time I head over to my Dad's place to try to set up the scope in a couple of days, I'll take along a 12V / 2A power pack and a bunch of leads (the ones we had hand wouldn't fit the scope base jack),. I'll try swapping cable ends etc to see if that helps too. And of course, we'll get back onto the scope shop that sold him the scope, and get them to deliver a working power supply.
Thanks again - really appreciate the help! I hope my next post is a positive one - maybe even with a couple of photos?
