Hi Richard,

A lot of TEK fans on the forum , from their advice I obtained a TEK 745 200Mhz scope and use it practically everyday. Obtained it from a fellow member and whenever it has gone wrong I have been able to repair it with the help for spares from again fellow members.

Looking forward to receiving a Tek 564B Storage Scope with 3A6 Dual Trace Amplifier and 3B3 Time base units tomorrow, this is a non worker which I hope to get back "on its feet".

Not a big fan of HP gear, obviously good but IMHO overrated.

TEK scope design and build quality unbeatable. I am also a big fan of the old Marconi test equipment especially the early spectrum analysers.

Regards
Mike
