I purchased a used 465 for about $1000 in 1992 and it worked fine for many years until I purchased a new digtal storage 'scope. However, these were introduced in the late 1970's so a lot depends on the condition of that particular unit and a low price could indcate problems with the switches. New analog oscillcopes are about $500 and the low end of the Agilent and Tektronix product lines is now $1000.

I've got some idea of what to look for in one when using it with amateur radio, but am wondering about one I've found several of for under 200 bucks. It's the "Tektronix 465 dual trace oscilloscope". Here's the specifications: http://tinyurl.com/2jxwux Think this will do everything I would want with servicing and analyzing my old Kenwood hybrid (TS-830S) rig? Frank, K2NCC
