[Test-Equipment] Fw: Tektronix 465 question

Think the 'scope has been used, but it appears to be in very good physical
condition and the tube still seems to have quite a bit of life left in it.
Have a 7633 that has a tube that isn't as happy.  Haven't had a chance to
check supply voltages carefully, yet.  But strange that both channels have
the same problem and excessive amplitude.

Thanks for the good suggestion.

If the trace is also a bit dim, it could be low CRT anode HV.
