CHECK OUT THE WIKI The purpose of the wiki is mainly to allow you to find information on instruments, either from either
- The model number
- The function(s) listed below. Some instruments have multiple functions - for example, the 4195A is a VNA, spectrum analyzer and an impedance analyzer. Therefore the 4195A is listed in multiple categories

Re: HP1743A scope
- The probe power sockets on the Tek 454 were Sealectro brand. - The HP 1740A is from a later era than the Tek 453/454. The contemporary Tek generation was the much lighter 465 family. - The HP 174X
