Yes, the newer ones had a little dab of RTV over the tops, I assume

cleaning and then later to keep junk out

Re: sockets.
All the talk of sockets prods me to talk of my one big socket story.
Around 1979 we started using Apple II computers in Display Research, Tek
Labs, as they were more versatile and cheaper than the

Re: 465M Flaky vertical height.
Thanks Stan for the insight. Very interesting! Regarding the 455 BW, I also
recollect the T935A scopes I worked on usually did between 50 and 60MHz. If
they did only 35MHz as spec'd, something

Re: Vintage Tek scopes anyone
Hi,
I live in Germany and I am collecting old Tektronix
stuff. Is there a 568 with sampling plug-ins or
any other sampling plug in or spectrum analyzer
plug-in in this lot. I don't have any

Re: 465M Flaky vertical height.
I think that it was actually the Berg Miniserts that were the most
troublesome of all the sockets. But they were so danged cute and
since they were individual pins, they could be placed in any

I'm late with this, but I found over the years the most effective cleaner for goo-like substances (i.e., label adhesive) is mineral spirits. It rapidly dissolves gummy substances without attacking

Re: Different view of the 465M, etc. --where to find parts
Well, Walter, that's the nice thing about this world. Everybody's
different (especially those who think that hp made the best scopes,
although I did much prefer their 130C over the Tek 503) and

Different view of the 465M, etc. --where to find parts
Everybody seems to have missed the entire point of the 465M, it was
designed specifically for a MTTR of 30 minutes, and the modular
design makes that possible. The MTTR of a regular 465 is measured

Re: 465M Flaky vertical height.
As much as I like sockets, I must agree with Dean. It is sure handy to be
able to remove and replace components easily, but that should be confined to
prototyping. The first Tektronix scope that I

Re: 7B70 gone bad...
John, with no manual, it's difficult. Since intermittents are a big
problem with Tek products having socketed component, the first thing
I'd do is rock every transistor around in its socket.

Re: T900 photo
Don, that is a T912 in the ebay photo, and it is a dual-channel,
single-timebase, bistable storage scope with a bandwidth of 10MHz.
The T921 was the least-expensive, but didn't didn't sell very
