We'd have to deal with UK customs paperwork and VAT. I doubt it is worth the pain and effort.

The 9906 + case, which powers on but is otherwise untested, went for
£22. I'm still upset that I didn't make an offer.
I'm willing to pay a little more but the real issue is dealing with post-Brexit tax and customs paperwork.
I just tried to draw a very simple LD1085 stabiliser PCB in KiCad 5 on my private laptop; a 13" MacBook Pro of 2015 vintage. Some difference to the work computer which is a 16" MBP of late 2020 vintage... I apparently need to make some form of upgrade.
Hmmm - Using KiCad right now on my work iMac Mid 2015 iMac. macOS 10.15 (Yes I'm at work today)
Works for me.
I have noticed issues moving projects between Windows and Mac versions of KiCad.
There is a huge performance difference between older Apple laptops and the current ones. H u g e.
Debbie's iPad is faster than Apple laptops from a few years ago.

For tax and customs there are a number of solutions, but it has been my experience that YMMV. If you want details, feel free to PM me but I think prices may be a bit above what you're looking for. FYI: I sold a number of these for 160€ + shipping (options M 55 10 04T). Price can be a bit lower but 22£ is erh...

I'll admit I'm a bit of a dreamer now and then.

Option 10 and the temperature controlled oscillator would be nice to have. Need to think about it.
£22 was really cheap. I was surprised the seller accepted the offer. The auction had 5 more days to run.

Sometimes you just want rid of stuff. If someone were to show up here with only 10 bucks in their pocket they could have both scope carts taking up space in my garage. As it is I'm going to offer them to the Facebook Old Tek group for $25/ea or take both for $40. The only caveat is that I
WON'T ship. Pick up only.

It certainly works. I notice that there's some issue with the 3D libs, as renders only show the PCB; not the components.
Speed, as you notice, is somewhat different, though. At my current component count, 9, that does not matter.
I've got a near UV lamp somewhere, will have to give that a try, nothing for near-IR though.
Find a picture manipulaion software a bit better than paint.
I have Gimp, it's free.
Open the old picture and change its colour space to CMYK.
Turn off all but yellow channel and zoom.
Few columns are pretty clear.
When constructing a new picture remember that you can concentrate pigments by tilting the angle.
It doesn't do harm eighter if you can save raw data, jpg is missing some blue.

That probably isn't the sold price,
ePay hides the actual price for offers, certainly seen this on things I've bought, others in the house can't see what it made, only the start price.

Some of the other lots I collected today, spent a bit of time removing the auction labels this afternoon.
Tek 109 pulse gen, originally used by Tek in the UK site according to the back.

Murphy again... in a good way though for a change.
Just when Factory shows us this adorable, sweet cute little 109 pulser.... here is another on the same theme. Another little Tek portable in the same form factor. A 107 fast square wave generator, in the latest Carlson's Lab video that just landed :
Nice video I found, only 28 minutes, just good stuff I found.

Had a quick look at the Type 107 on Tek wiki, it looks a larger than the Type 109 I have, certainly wouldn't get all those vacuum bulbs & TF in the 109.
I'm getting asked to do none TEA things today, so won't get a chance to look at the 109.

The first thing that boggled my mind is that the face plate says the output is 52 ohms ?! Yes 52 not 50 ! So you need 52ohms coaxial cables and plug that into a 52 ohm load/scope, if that even exists ?! I guess there must exist 52/50 ohms adapters ?! Still, why not make the oput 50ohms to begin with ?! how pervert is it to make a 52 ohms output ?! WHY ?!
Is it " thing " to be 52 ohms in the test and measurements arena maybe, at that time anyway ? What's so special about 52 ohms that you can't do with traditional 50 ohms ? I am genuinely curious, I am sure I will learn something...
Weird : just checked the Tekwiki page about this 107.
https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/107
Strangely, the description pretends it's 50 ohms not 52... and it's not a typo either : they say it multiple times.. even though the face plate of the instrument clearly reads 52 not 50, and the service manual spec page says 52, the schematic says 52 too... it's 52 not 50 !
Worse : Tekwiki goes on to give an explanation of why it's 50 ohms (when it's not), it goes : " It's 50 ohms because the plate load resistor of the output/driver tube is 50 ohms ".
Eh ?! As you can see in the schematic, the plate resistor for the output tube is hardly 50ohms, far from that, it's 100+ times more, it's 5.6K !!

I reckon you could do a sneaky switcharoo on R94 to make it 100ohms to get a proper 50ohms impedance.

I'll be right over, soon as I finish my hotel breakfast eggs and bacon.

For offers ebay seem to just show the starting price on the completed item, not the offer price.

01:40 to go on the 1991 -- My Gixen bid is higher than current bid. Not expecting to win.
Outbid on the 2101. Not tempted to go higher.
