There are several CRT that fit that scope some come with a different HV lead so don't throw the old one away yet before you know if you need to chop off the lead and use the one from the broken CRT. Which I had to do in the case of my 2215. I spliced the leads and used about 5 coats of liquid tape. I used a 154-0861-00 out of a 2235 found on evil-bay for under $40 shipped. Only you can decide if fixing the scope is worth it. Brendan |

Where in the world are you, it would be helpful if such requests included such information as shipping cost are a major factor in the viability of supplying spares. 73 George G6HIG On Saturday, December 8, 2018 1:37 PM, lop pol via Groups.Io <the_infinite_penguin@...> wrote:

Hi!Yes, Qservice sells CRTs, you could contact them about a compatible part. e.g. based on the part number suggested by Brendan. Prices vary. And is it a wise thing to do, regarding the relatively low price on those scopes?Yes, they won't be plentiful forever, thanks to regular events like you just experienced, and the widespread fallacy that newer is better. --Toby |

Thank You for your input, and sorry for my late reply.
I live in sweden. I purchased the scope for just over $100. I have got the money back from the shipping company. I have search the web but could not find any tube with a price witch justifyes a repair. What I have seen is tube cost of around $150 + shipping. Therefore I will wait for another opportunity to buy a cheap TEK-scope. I still have two other analogues scopes, a GWInstek and a Hameg, but it is a 22xx Tektronix I really want. I do not know why, but the 22xx series is for me the way a scope should look. Maybe it i just nostalgia, we used them in school, loooong time ago. |

I have a couple of 2215 scopes to dispose of. One works (or did when I last used it ten years ago) but the focus is a bit off even with the control at the end-stop, just the resistor chain issue I suspect, as I recall it is a bunch of 1M(?) resistors in series that go high with age? The other is a potential parts unit which I was told just has a PSU issue - I was given that one for free. These are free to a good home, or in the case of Sweden, just for the postage. A quick look on a parcel website seems to show DPD could get the pair of them to you from the UK for about 40 Euro, but there may be cheaper ways (some guy in a red suit with a bunch of reindeer is due through soon I believe?) If you are interested let me know and I'll explore the options in more detail. Adrian On 12/16/2018 7:40 AM, eksund1900 via Groups.Io wrote:

Hello Adrian,
I am interested in one of the non-working 2215's as a hobby winter-project. I am a Dutch retired tech, living in Spain, if eksund1900 does not take them all, please consider shipping one to me? If possible contact me off-line for shipping details and costs, Un saludo, Leo P.S. for nostalgic reasons I am also looking for a 475A ... |
