I've got a Sears 982015 digital multimeter with a square wave generator function on it. I want to use the function to calibrate an oscilloscope but I don't know the frequency nor amplitude of the signal it produces. Does anyone out there have the manual or other data on this meter? HElp please. Thanks.

You must not care about the accuracy of your 'scope.
If you need to calibrate it, do it right and invest in the proper hardware to do a decent calibration. Failing that, professional cal for older 'scopes is not terribly expensive. As one example, I've been quoted about $73 for the Tektronix 7904 mainframe.
Happy tweaking.
