Who needs triggered and calibrated sweep or vertical calibration either :)
I used to have one of these..and kept an octupus type curve tracer hooked to it. Just to quick check diodes and transistors.
This scope even poorly performed at that too. Too much phase shift between vertical and horiz amp. but continued to use it till the transformer smoked.
Maybe would give someone $10 for one, but that is about it. Sort of have to admire the tv techs from that time if thats all had to work with for a scope. Even in high school electronics had a triggered sweep scope...as matter of fact telequipment. Not sure what model it was..single trace with a nice crisp bright green trace. That was a tube one but not sure which model. Seemed like didnt have any problems with though. Never had a chance to take one apart though.

It pays to research...must be someone new to the hobby. This is
probably the highest bid I've ever seen on a older service grade
EICO 460 scope (C$230!) and no guarantee it even works. Could have
any number of nice Tek models for this price. Anyway, the seller
must be happy...
Cheers,
Tony
