Calibrated, refurbed TEKTRONIX 2465A 350MHz 4chan portable analog OSCILLOSCOPE:
$690.00
If you pay my asking price, I will send you calibrated, refurbed, Tek 2465A scope, with instructions I'll email you as a pdf once I have your email ( does not give it to me and won't let you give it to me until after you buy something/anything from me). Tek used to charge over $6000 for these in 1986-'88 (equivalent to $40000 in 2023, so you are getting it for a very tiny fraction, still in good condition. Comes with 14 days right of exchange/store credit. My BIN price is equal to my flat rate fee to fix and cal a 2400 scope, so you can think of this scope being "free" and you just paying me to go over it.
I enabled the "make offer" button not to invite pay cuts (which don't incentivize my best efforts on your behalf), but rather to enable you to pay more to get more, such as:
a) add frequency counter option for $163 more;
b) add TV sync option 5 for $126 more (composite video signals have equal amplitude V & H sync at vastly differing rep rates which tend to confuse normal trigger circuits that mostly care about amplitude; also this option lets you trigger on a specific line # of an odd or even field; option mostly helps those looking at video signals);
c) add a P6063B or P6136 probe for $100 more;
d) extend guaranty from 14 to 180 days for $150 more;
I have not recently used a make offer button on for offering more than BIN, but if it no longer works for >BIN, I will still sell you what you want. When offering more please specify what you want added. Also, please refrain from offering me less as already cuts my pay by keeping about 14% of what you send me, and cheaper 2465As are available from others (with the added risk of not working).
2465A is predecessor of 2465B and successor of 2465. 2465 did not have auto-scaling which is present on 2465A. 2465B added some auto-measures which 2465A does not have. 2465A is a well designed 4 channel 350MHz bandwidth portable analog package from the repairable era (newer TDSs, Agilents, Keysights, Rigols, Owons,.. are not really repairable to component level). It is more reliable and better performing than 475, 475A, 485, and 2465 that you might find (and compare to) on . One advantage an A may have over a B is greater simplicity ( = greater reliability) especially in the area of a more dependable processor board (thanks to avoidance of SMDs).
Most scope probes you may already have should work with this scope. Examples of suitable probes are Tek: P6101, P6105, P6106, P6109, P6062, P6063, P6131, P6133, P6136, P6137 (these are widely available among items; some even from my listings).
Have/had several 2465As so photo may not be of the one you'll get, but all look and work equally nicely. First photo shows leading edge of a 1MHz square wave whose risetime (and that of the scope)reads about 1.04nS, consistent with the capability of a 350MHz scope. This is a far more stringent test than others showing a scope can display trace zero signal lines or 1KHz signals. 2nd photo shows what TV option 5 (available for $126 more)shows what it can do: let you stably trigger on your choice of odd or even tv field & line # (in this case: odd & 19). All have blue face filters at my asking price. Some may lack 1 of the 2 logo labels (screentop or handle) and Tek no longer sells these cosmetic items.
I choose to work on 2400s because they were the last repairable scopes Tek made.2400s are myspecialty, so mine shall arrive working correctly, whether you're buying just 1 or several to outfit an entire lab or classroom. Please keep in mind if buying another's 2465A, that chances are, regardless of price,almost certaintheirsmay have problems.I sell them because I fix them, others sell them because they need fixing. It simply isn't reasonable to expect a scope will have lasted 35 years without accumulating some issues (eg: dead Li battery backing NVRAM; yes I replaced it) that a seller may or may not be aware of. Also, most sellers have no idea how many hours theirs accumulated. The clock maxes out 99999, which perhaps you won't run into, but you could run into 60000 hours, which is a lot more than you should want, and best way to avoid that is to buy from me rather than random other sellers. The ones I am selling have less than 20000 hours when you pay my asking price.
Please be sure has your current correct address before you pay. I am required to ship to address has for you. Mistakes are costlier to fix after you pay as there are some irreversible "frictional" losses in the payment system which make "store credit" the only practical "refund".
as a large e-commerce facilitator, is required to collect sales tax for 45 of the 50 States (may spread to more). I have nothing to do with that and I don't collect sales tax on my own out-of-California sales. If you don't want to pay a large tax (and you are not in CA), then first buy something cheap(er) from me, like a probe or pouch, and a workaround will present itself.
You get a 14 day right of return (exchange or store credit) provided youdon't breach tamper seals, return everything in same shape as received, pack it as well as I, and pay for all shipping.
BUY more INCENTIVE: I will offer you a 10% DISCOUNT on subsequent items bought from me. Sequence matters... If you need accessories or probes, buying an accessory from me first can save you 10% on the scope as a 2nd purchase (may also save you the tax on the scope, in other words
