Jeff, the guy I bought it from said that mostly he replaced electrolytic capacitors.? I haven't done anything to it.? The reason I decided not to sell it is that I was mistaken about the bad channet.? It works okay I think.
I don't like the scope that much.? I have another one that needs work and it seems as though Tek didn't go the extra mile in engineering; the boards are stacked in an effort to keep the unit small and the hardware isn't standard.
As for using it, well it has some benefits and some drawbacks as one might expect.? It's not that user friendly and one needs to use it often to remember what menu to use for what function.? I find myself staring at the panel to figure out how to perform some mundane procedure.? Like shutting off the display of some function or changing how many traces on the screen.
The bottom line is that I use my 2445 for most work and my HP54542A is easier to handle.

Bob, just wondering what has been done to that scope?? Is it still giving problem in one channel?
Asking because I have 3 2440's, 2 2432's, 1 2432A and a few 2430A,s all waiting on parts to repair and calibrate,
so in a few months I will find out myself what these series scopes can do (or what else is wrong with them?)
Jeff?
