Just purchased a 7854 off the Bay of E yesterday. Obviously, haven't
received it yet. Pictures from the auction do not show it powered up,
but the description says used but signs ofcosmetic wear, but according
to the seller it is operational.
Not ever having had a scope of such complexity before, anything I need
to look out for when powering it up?
Doesn't come with a keyboard, so I'll be looking for one of those.
Preferably one that isn't more thanI paid for the scope. ;-)
Comes with a 7D15 counter/timer and what looks like a 7B71 time base
(hard to tell exactly, picture is kinda fuzzy).

The usual applies. When first powering it up, disconnect the PSU and
run it with loads. At first don't turn on the HV section. Once the LV
seems to work, get the HV working (everything should still be running
on loads)
