I owned one of these. The PC boards are all plated with gold.

I used to ppen it up and show the gold in it to all my friends. You can even see it in the pictures. This was one of the last scopes where Tek did this. It was made before gold skyrocketed in the early 70's. Someone with a sharp eye is going to buy this and scrap it for the gold. -----Original Message-----

There does seem to be some good parts though. If anyone buys it can you let us know if the CRT survived, the shield is battered so it's unlikely but maybe...? Don Black. Darrin Conniff wrote: Hello all (sniffle). |

'did CRT survive', my, is that a long shot. I have seen some optimists, and

I once was given a Tek 212 portable oscilloscope that was dropped from a power pole and was in many pieces. The amazing thing was that the CRT was un-damaged. I managed to get it all back together, got some replacement knobs and probe tips, and after a brief miniature "4th of July" on one of the boards - replaced some burned up resistors and the para-phase vertical IC, cleaned up the charring on the boards real good and when powered it up with an external reg 12volt supply, built just for the unit; it works really nice. Then there's the time when I was working on one of those dreaded Tele-equipment S51B's and while I had the CRT in my hand and it bit me and went down on the cement floor - I couldn't put that one back together. They were great, when they worked, for what they were, but major pain to service, and the post accelerator was not meant to be handled bare handed.
