Hi all,
several decades ago (aged 19), I bought a TEK 567 with the 3S76 and 3T77
and 6R1 plugins. Although it took me 3 weeks of work to make the unit
operable again, the explanations in the documentation were exceptionally
helpful, not to say educative.
The same happened a few years later,when I was able to score a HP 140
with a 1415 TDR plugin. The documentation was of such exceptional
quality, that I not only understood the principle of operation, but also
could restore this instrument to its former glory.
Ask me today about sampling, random or sequential, I think I learned my
lesson from these manuals and App Notes. My personal favourite is
AN-150, that helped me in my work designing part of the Hameg spectrum
analyzers.

Indeed.
The Tek manuals "Theory of operation" sections, in conjunction with the
full and well documented schematics, were a virtual college (or higher
level in some cases) course in instrumentation electronics.
