Another vote for the Tek 465B; I first came across 465's in the early 70's when they were the bee's knees but it wasn't till 20 years later that I was able to afford a secondhand one!

The only repairs I have done is replace the rear feet/cable tidies which disintegrated a few years ago, fortunately there is a guy on ebay in the US that supplies very good replacements. Some say they are a pig to service, but at least it's possible, and spares are available, unlike the digital scope I also have which if it fails will probably be irrepairable.
