There's a guy on eBay that advertises "Tek 'Scope Rebuilding"--whatever that 
means. His service is on "sale" this month for $99.95. But he only does the old 
500-series 'scopes. I would think the total cost of his service would be 
probibitive--shipping to and from, $99.95 labor, plus maybe (if you're lucky) a 
half dozen tubes and a few caps--another $100. The whole thing could hit $300 
very fast and those old 500-series 'scopes can be had for $20. So it doesn't 
make much sense to me.

going to assume that at least one of them works.

        the scope I have, works if you use the X-Y inputs, but not the front
        panel.  there's not even a dot (best I recall - it's been a while)
        
        What ever it is, it's common to both channels.
