Re: "J" Plugin
I think the plotter you are thinking of is the 4662. I have three of those and my best one is on display at Building 50 on the Tektronix Campus in their "mini-museum" history display. I also have a

Re: "J" Plugin
FWIW I produced our wedding invitiations on a 4051, plotting them out on a Tek x-y plotter - I forget the type number of this unit. However, that too was pretty exotic stuff for 1978! If I close my

Re: 4S1/2!?!?!?

Re: 4S1/2!?!?!?
Hi Michael, Those are vertical amplifiers for the 661 sampling scope. The time bases for the 661 had numbers like 5T1, 5T1A, and 5T3. In fact, those three were the only timebases ever made for the

Dean, Very excellent idea about the two hole 7K plugin portable scope. The more I think about it, the better I like it! I remember a lunar lander game for the 4081 workstation which I played while on

Re: 4S1/2!?!?!?
The 4S1 and 4S2 plugins are used with the 661 scope mainframe along with a 5T1 or 5T2 time base. I believe this was one of Teks first attempts at sampling technology. I think I have a scope or two and

4S1/2!?!?!?
I just came across some 4S1s and 4S2s!!! Dual-channel sampler plugs w/o timebases. What on earth were these used in? Anyone have docs? I'd like to know what sampling diodes are used in it if nothing

Re: "J" Plugin
Playing with the 4051 was fun. I remember the standard game was "Lunar Lander". Then the 4052 and 4054 came out and Lunar Lander became worthless because they were so much faster that all you could do

Stan, I that book that you look down at, 'Winning with People', there was a mention of a guy by name Bob Anderson, who was hired from Hughes in 1959 (page 214, right hand column). He started at CRT

Re: "J" Plugin

Re: WTD: Manual for C1002 Camera
Well, if I don't have the manual, it's not of much use to me. I would take $30 for it plus a few bucks for shipping. Assuming you in the CONUS. As for the difference between the two, I have no idea.

585 oscilloscope
Hi all, I have been having a bit of fun recently restoring a 585 scope - a late model which had been modified into a de-facto 585A. This instrument is nearly 40 years old and must have really wowed

Hello Don, I enjoyed reading what you had to say. It was interesting but sickening at the same time, too. That business of marketing worrying about 'cannibalizing sale of existing line' makes me barf.
