I used my Tektronix 535A oscilloscope (all 60+ valves of it) to inspect the timing of various signals coming from my EPROM programmer. It's still an amazingly reliable and versatile instrument. How many affordable, or not-so-affordable, modern scopes could combine anything up to four traces, high-frequency differential input, and microwave spectrum analysis up to 12GHz in one box?
