[Milsurplus] Repair of Tektronix 2335

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

I have a Tek 2335 that has given good service for years and is still 
perfectly adequate for anything that I need it to do.  Two weeks ago it was 
working fine.  I used it to fine tune a vibrator for a TBY 4V supply, and 
proceeded to close up the vibrator.  When I went to run a final test on the repaired 
vibrator, the 'scope had no trace.

I don't have the service manual on it, nor the time to fix it myself.  So I 
did a little searching and came up with a company named Transcat whose 
local office is less that a mile from my house.  Their ads claimed that they 
worked on Tektronix equipment.  So I took the unit to them some time ago, and 
they accepted it.  Several telephone calls later, I get an email from them 
saying that the instrument is obsolete, unrepairable, and if I pay them 
$150.00 I can have it back unrepaired.

Does anyone know of anyone preferably in the Houston area but lacking that 
anywhere in the USA who will actually fix it?
