Since I'm still in college, I really don't have much to spend but would really like to pick up a secondhand CRT Analogue Osciliscope. I don't have anything remotely close to the sort currently, and I think my lab would greatly benefit from one especially since I'm beginning to get involved more with intricate circuitry, especially with audio and logic.If you're looking at tossing one, feel free to send it my way. I'd gladly pay shipping and I'm open to negotiations. I'm on a budget but am open to negotiations.Also, I am located in the Continental US.Thank you so much for reading.

I haven't seen any one eBay despite having been looking for quite a while, and as far as I can gather, Fluke no longer make any parts for this model.If you have any ideas, it would be great if you could let me knowCheers,Hugh

And if you want to get a cheap, parts meter from eBay, it's most likely the LCD that's damaged.I've been looking a display for the old Fluke scopes forever and they just don't exist in the wild on their own.Good luck.

Would be nice to have someone offer me a price I can't refuse and back a truck up to my pole barn and load it all in. A lot of this equipment is still in good working order and I would like to see it find a good home.Would consider trading everything for a good used High quality wide band Spectrum Analyzer.Much of it was in use up until earlier this summer, when I decided to replace what I really needed with newer versions from the used market place. Many of the pieces are still mounted in a rack, as you will see in the pictures.I have placed pictures of all the equipment on my server where you can go download and look at the pictures. The files names kind of tell you what the equipment is. If you have any questions about any piece, drop me a line and I will tell you what I know about the piece.Of everything shown I am still using the Stoddart IM-88 and IM-36B. Would consider selling them if the price was right. Both are in like new condition and cost over $3000 each back in the 50's. I have a 110 volt power supply that runs them as well. Covering from 14 KHz to 400 MHz they really come in handy on the test bench.Most of the equipment is probably cost prohibitive to pack and ship. Pickup here near Albion Michigan would be one option. If you are interested in an individual piece, let me know and we can talk about what it would take to get it out of here.Here is the link to all the pictures on my server:http://www.mrrace.com/TestEquipPictures/Have fun looking and let me know if you need further information,Direct email is: george@mrrace.comGeorge

content: I have that same unit at home. It's a really good system with lots of cheap tips out there.Just a heads up if you are not familiar with those, it still needs a tip holder hand piece, some tips, and ideally a nice hand piece stand with sponge holder before you can solder anything. That is just the power supply. That can add up if you don't find deals on those things too.Another thing to consider is one of those heat resistant rubber tip changing pad things if your hand piece doesn't come with one.

content: HiJust a request if anybody has failed oscilloscope input boards for digital oscilloscopes, specifically from Acquisition through to acquisition/sample memory, including trigger.These ideally need to be LCD based scope parts as the design in many ways is fundamentally different after the analog channel.I've been doing research, and now would like to probe a couple of well designed layouts, but a failed DSO can still cost over $100.The whole board could be completely failed, every component could be useless, but as long as it can be understood (ie what is missing is limited, or if removed intact, is marked as being a given IC purpose) I'd be interested in acquiring it, obviously I'm not looking for anything that is worth anything.This is really to understand minor insights and methods for tuning solutions, rather than figure out overall design and flow, or component selection, as this is largely understood. It forms an accelerator between the open designs, research material, tech releases and the higher end solutions.Thanks

I'll dig them up and take some photos, and find the specifications. I've never used them.I also have a 532nm (green) 100mW laser module that supports PWM or analog dimming, with safety goggles... After doing a laser safety course, I have realized that my workshop is not adequately set up for working with lasers, I do not wish to risk my eyesight.

It's got a floppy drive for getting screencaps off the instrument. There are no options (only available option was GPIB). Everything checks out ok, I've used it for years. I've got printed copies of the service and user manuals I'll include.It's a really late Tek instrument. Most of the inside is empty, there's only one small 6x8 inch board inside the case which has all the acquisition, display stuff etc. The only reason isn't slim is because it has a CRT. In fact, I've been thinking for a while about modding it with a LCD and making is much smaller (cutting down the case).If there's want I'll post pictures - this is just a feeler. Please let's keep discussions about price via private message. I'm happy to ship in the lower 48 US states via insured FedEx express (included in price). Let's talk if you're interested in shipping elsewhere in the world.
