I started at Tektronix as a field Application Engineer in 1987 and 28
years later I am still in that job position. I was not required to work
in production, but in field sales we are working directly with engineers
and technicians in their labs measuring signals on their boards, so we
are very clos

Stanford has a class called Mechatronics, or something like that. Teams of
3-5 students build a robot to do a task. The task changes from year to year.

When down sizing, the best question to ask your self is "When was the last
time I needed to use this?" and if the answer was "a long time ago" then
you likely will not need to keep it.
As to what to do with three broken units, Sell them for some small amount
plus shipping. Then take them to the

You don't save these kinds of synthesizers for high frequency
coverage, but for their 10 to 11 digit frequency resolution. If you

option.
At one time two of them worked, but not now. All power up.
It is time to downsize for the move to a retirement living community.
