Jim,

You have to know the 'scope specs.  The Tek 475 scope is a 200 MHz 
'scope, the 465 is 150 MHz.
The frequency rating of the probes will also provide an upper limit.

The resolution on the time axis is quite a different consideration than 
the frequency rating for the amplitude (and rise time) response of the 
vertical amplifier.  Normally, the 'scope's frequency is stated as the 
response for the vertical amplifier.

73,
