Re: 7T11 sampling timebase - how does it behave?
Hello Albert, Bingo! The idea was to show the S-52's signal into the S-4 so having the S-52 in the same mainframe with the other stuff made that simple. Yes and not really: Yes, the 7S11 in the

Re: Tek 464 - Confirmation on Z-Axis frequency response performance
I have two 468's they do exactly the same thing at the fastest sweeps. Takes over 2 divisions before I have a trace.

Re: Tek 577 sells for $256 on eBay
If you're interested primarily in tubes, you should check out the uTracer which is a very clever implementation using pulsed power supplies and a computer for the analysis/display. Google uTracer and

Re: Tek 577 sells for $256 on eBay

Re: 7T11 sampling timebase - how does it behave?
I'd say the 36-40 pSec tr displayed result is in the right ballpark. If the tr of the pulse and the the sampler are both 25 pSec, then the net would be about 35. If they are both 30 pSec, then it
