Analogue Oscilloscopes

[JEZGUZ]

The question is are they worth anything or shall I just weigh them in? One is a Tectronix 454 and it's a big lump, the other is smaller and I can't remember the name off hand. No use to me as I don't dabble in the black arts of electronics.

Give it to me, I've been after one!

I was going to say that they're probably worth a little bit of money - mainly to hobbyists or old fashioned people like my Dad . He'd probably be interested in it.

Teks are collectors' pieces now. You'd sell it easily. The other, it depends on what it is.

Every so often I get a hankering for an old scope, and they can be had relatively inexpensively (even cheaper on gumtree - probably £100 to £150).
But then reality kicks in.

Even in the rare instances that it might be useful the fact that they're often limited to a low MHz means they have limited uses for Arduino type kit.

the 454 is a nice scope, good to 150MHz. someone will cherish it.

Send em my way if you like.
Use them for audio. Nice to see the waveforms when your creating sounds

 

[mtt.tr]

Id buy the 454

 

[Carl Wilson]

Sell them to someone that will use them. Don't scrap them.
