Re: An actually rare Tektronix item


Chuck Harris
 

Thanks.

I was hoping someone could say, "I used one when
I was at tek", or "I bought mine at the country
store"...

I guessed from the dimensions and hardware that
it was probably a 585, or similar... the 585
would have one of the biggest transformers of
the common 500 series.

I also guessed that it was simply the bottom of
the 585, as that is where all the power supply
stuff was located.

Seems smaller than a 500 series scope, though.

I actually have the TEK documentation on this unit as I have one on my bench.

I did share as much as I could on the wiki, but was not able to upload the schematics. I acquired mine through an ex-TEK employee whom brought it home from the company store decades ago.

Stan Griffiths and I determined it to roughly be a PSU rack from the Type 585 Oscilloscope.

Very nice piece for gear really.

Hope it helps.

Cheers,

David
