FS: manual for Tektronix 515/515A; the 503 manual is spoken for
Hello-- I'm offering FS one each manual for a Tek 515/515A oscilloscope (no serial no.). The manual is in VG condition (front cover missing a section near its model-number window) and is unannotated.

Re: Analog computing, X-Y display, was Re: [TekScopes] Wanted: Tek 503
Or find a Tektronix 536 oscilloscope and put identical plug-ins in the vertical and horizontal channels. Get a T plug-in with it so you have a time base if needed. Byron WA6ATN

Re: 7623A + 7A26 + 7B53
Let's see. I've heard tales of things wrapped in a layer of bubble wrap, and then thrown off a UPS truck to land on the faceplate. By so much, you're lucky. Then you've got spare parts at worst.

Re: Analog computing, X-Y display, was Re: [TekScopes] Wanted: Tek 503
I've found X-Y mode on a digital scope (TDS460A at least) to be extremely unsatisfying. It seems to be far from the sweet spot of what DSO's can do.

Re: Analog computing, X-Y display, was Re: [TekScopes] Wanted: Tek 503
I'd recommend just using almost any analog scope that has X-Y capability for display. For low frequencies including audio, the response of the V and H should be virtually identical - you can easily

Re: Analog computing, X-Y display, was Re: [TekScopes] Wanted: Tek 503
Thanks for the extra info. I certainly wish I could peer over your shoulder, I'd probably learn a lot. A very cheap X-Y option right now is a 1720 vectorscope, if that has the bandwidth you need; it's

Analog computing, X-Y display, was Re: [TekScopes] Wanted: Tek 503
I'm curious about your analog computer. Are you documenting/blogging/video'ing this anywhere? What is the goal? I'm also working on circuits to drive X-Y displays, but at a very basic level since I'm

Re: Cheap differential probe ?
Dennis' suggestion of using add and invert mode on the oscilloscope works well depending on how much sensitivity you need. If you have a 7000 mainframe, then a 7A13 combined with standard x1 probes

Re: Cheap differential probe ?
Massdrop had one a week ago for $140. I was actually quite surprised to see such a specialized piece of equipment show up for sale there. If it's not available now, be patient, it'll come up again.
