I collected the rest last weekend, 1/2 tonne of them!

Who had the Solartron 1220? I have a manual for the 1212, single timebase version.

I had forgotten just how poorly designed the scopes other than the large Tek/Solartron were, can't get to the valve bases to fault find, the Solartron 1400 had the PCBs soldered together. Mostly scrap, not worth the effort of repairing.

Did keep an ancient Iwatsu DSO, uses 2102 memory chips, if anyone wants it ask, does work.
