[Boatanchors] Fw: [Test-Equipment] parting out TEK 545B scope

[Ian]

I used to have "my own" 545A and a shared 555 in the early 60s when I worked
at a prime AEC contractor.  Money was really no concern and we got whatever
instrumentation we needed.  

Of course we also had several Tek 519 traveling wave scopes so we could view
sub nanosecond risetimes of single high voltrage pulses easily.  Of course
we couldn't see the pulses directly and had to use 10,000 Polaroid film with
the camera shutter open at the right time.  We were just getting the early
sampling scopes when I left for another employer.

I still have a soft spot for the 545 which was a very easy scope to use.

Ian, K6SDE

But the biggest was the 555 with the powersupply on the bottom of the cart!
