I am a fan of simmconn lab's Newscope-8 kit for the 8566B. It is
clear, bright, and very easy to read. The colors are a great
improvement.
The 50W reduction in power consumption is a great benefit.

Do you guys that have upgraded to an LCD found it worth the
400$+shipping? I am torn whether I should go that route and cough up
the cash for this old SA or buy a replacement HV multiplier. There
are a few available for 30-40$ There are more things wrong with the
SA (RF section, input signal showing very low amplitude, like 70-90dB
lower than expected) which I haven't gotten around to try and fix
since I needed a functioning display first.
