TEKTRONIX 2465B 400MHz 4Chan analog OSCILLOSCOPE, refurbed/cal'd

Description: My asking price includes 30 days guaranty (longer is available, read..). Offered here are serial B019914 with 9506 hours, serial B062725 with 9130 hours, serial B064490 with 8112 hours, serial B010533 with 12750 hours, B011649 with 7704 hours, and B014650 with 8895 hours. First buyer gets first choice. If you need one with lower hours, please see my other listings or contact me for availability and price. The Tek 2465B is a well designed 4 channel analog 400MHz bandwidth portable package, made from mid-1988 to mid-1996 that would be useful for decades to come. It was so loved by users that when Tek quit making them a used one would cost the same or more as Tek's new price. Iwatsu and LeCroy even came out with a "replacement" called the SS7840H and LA314H. Costs only a tiny 10% fraction of its $9,000 new price, yet for the foreseeable future, well maintained 2465Bs (last scopes Tek made to be component level repairable) by me, will still be serving their owners well, while many newer, less repairable scopes won't. Will be shipped to you freshly calibrated, with instructions book pdf (I'll need your email to send it; ebay doesn't give it to me), power cord, and blue face filter (only at my asking price)... READY TO USE !. Since the listing is for multiple 2465Bs, the photos might not be of the specimen you'll get, but rest assured any 2465B I send out will be in excellent cosmetic & electrical shape. Most of my 2465B scopes do not have the GPIB option (hinted by 3 screentop LEDs in 1st photo; a digital interface is quite useless on analog scopes). Please be sure to indicate to me if you plan to use it in a 230V country, or if you absolutely need the GPIB option. First photo shows leading edge of a 1MHz square wave whose risetime (and that of the scope) reads about 0.98nS (would be 0.88nS if source risetime was instantaneous), consistent with the capability of a 400MHz 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 response of scope to "autoscale+measure frequency" of a 1KHz signal from a time mark generator. 3rd photo shows result of asking scope to "autoscale & measure volts" of a 2Vpp signal. Note it tells you it goes positive from ground and that it spends more time on than off since the average is slighly more than 1V. 4th photo shows response to 2 equal amplitude signals one at 40MHz, the other 400MHz. Yes, the 400MHz looks smaller, but by definition, on a 400MHz scope, 400MHz can be 30% smaller. 5th shows dual time base mode in action with faster sweep running 10X faster than main sweep and time difference correctly measured between 2 intensified zones. 6th photo shows scope on top of calibration sources needed to cal/verify such a scope; sellers who don't have such equipment are going out on a limb when they claim their scope functions correctly. 7th shows a 400MHz P6134C or P6137 probe you may want to buy from me first to then save 10% (and maybe the tax) on the scope. It is not included but just shown as a suitable candidate reference. I choose to work on 2400s because they were the last repairable (to component level) scopes Tek made. 2400s are my specialty, so mine shall arrive working correctly, whether you're buying just 1 or several to outfit an entire lab or classroom. Others sell them because they need fixing, whether their sellers know it or not, I sell them after I've fixed them... and that is reflected in my higher prices (can't expect those selling for less to have had the 30 year old Li battery/NVRAM or any other failing parts replaced). Please make sure Ebay has your current correct ship-to address before paying, as that is where I am required to ship. Mistakes are costly to fix after paying as I cannot offer cash refunds, so please go over details before paying. If you are outside the 48 mainland states, USPS Prio Mail is the most cost effective choice. If you are outside USA, shipping by public Airmail is not available since it does not satisfy Ebay tracking and delivery confirmation requirements. We can use DHL, FEDEX, or UPS (Fedex usually gives me lowest rates) and Ebay's calculator is often greatly wrong by as much as a factor of 4 not in your favor... Can ask me for a quote (and please include address) or ask me to have it travel on your account with any of the 3 by selecting "local pickup" option, or by asking for "revised invoice". Also, keep in mind if you are outside US, Ebay will not help you lower import tax by reducing declared customs value, whereas I will if you need and empower me to, and some foreign Ebay sites (eg: ebay.fr) may add more tax and fees and shipping than you would pay if you'd deal with me on US Ebay (ebay.com). Some foreign Ebay sites may not even show some or any of my items. Please do not offer me less than my asking price (you can buy from others for less). I don't like pay cuts and Ebay already keeps 14% of what you send. Offering less does not incentivize my best effort on your behalf, and understand that if you offer less, you will get less (say a 2465A). I'd prefer you offer more to get more... such as... you can offer $100 more to get 6 MONTHS GUARANTY (my parts & labor, your shipping) though I realize for some of you far away, round trips to secure service could get expensive, which is why I leave the choice up to you. By the way, if you are offered a 3rd party guaranty extension at checkout, you should ignore it - I have no idea how they operate or if they are qualified to work on 2465Bs. You can also offer $240 for a new/unused P6134C 400MHz probe. If Ebay stops you from offering more, I will still sell you what you want. Can also add TV Sync option 5 for $150 more. Ebay as a large e-commerce site, now has to collect sales tax for many of the 50 States. I have no control over that, and I do not charge sales tax on my own out-of-California sales (I am small). If you are outside California and do not feel like paying a large tax, buy something cheap(er) from me first (eg: a probe) and a workaround will present itself. Also, I cannot offer cash refunds (but only store credit) because of differing definitions of "full refund" between Ebay and its payment platforms. One considers full refund to be all you paid; the other considers full refund to be return of all I got. The difference is the fees, shipping, and sales tax that I never see, and I can't "go into the hole" for you to return more than what I got. Also money coming into a small business gets spent almost as soon as it lands in. Please buy prudently/ask questions first. DISCOUNT on subsequent items: I will offer you a 10% DISCOUNT on next purchase(s). If you want the 10% discount on this item, buy any cheaper item from me first (eg: a probe as shown in last photo, or a top pouch, or even a spare fuse). This should also save you the sales tax on the scope if you're outside my state (California). Once you buy the cheaper item first, let me know which scope you want and I'll enable the discount for you. 2465B beyond your budget ? - I also have 2465As - see my other listings. or ask. A 2465A is what you may get instead if you offer less than my asking price. LOCAL PICKUP INCENTIVE: if you come to me to pick up the scope, I will add a Tek scope cart FREE (carts are impractical to ship). HURRY INCENTIVES: If you buy it today, I'll add a 400MHz Tek probe.
