So what are the other 3 pieces of gear?

I already have a 54600B (older, no zoomies) and I love the interface and measurement functions of this era of HP scopes. So, one of the reasons I went for the 54642D was the familiarity and love for the interface. And I've heard so many good things about it "analogue-ness" that it seemed the obvious pick! The 16ch digital was the killer feature for me however. No decoding, but that's OK. I'll get a USB logic analyzer for that eventually, if I need it.
As for the other gear.... Well, I picked up a "not working" LeCroy WaveJet 314, according to the seller it failed a self-cal on Ch 3, but appeared to work perfectly well regardless. Going to fix it, and if I don't love it, I'll re-sell it (most likely). Could be nice to have a 4ch beater scope. Shipping cost more than the scope. Go figure.
Then I picked up a vintage HP 6825A Bipolar supply / amp, I made a restoration thread in the Repair forum for that one.
Aaaand I'm waiting for a Racal-Dana 1992 to arrive...
And I might have gotten a GPSDO, still in transit.
help.

Got that neat guy from a colleague, saying "Better you take it before I'm gonna dispose it"
It's in pretty good nick, and working.

This week saw 2 new additions to my bench. Purchased a Maynuo 9812 DC load and a Siglent SPD3303X-E both from eBay. Got one of those 20% off up to $100 coupons so finally snagged a load. Ended up paying $380 shipped which seems pretty damned decent. Decided I wanted another repair project so was looking through the "as is/for parts" listings and spotted the Siglent listed at $168.18 and immediately made an offer. I accepted their counter-offer. After thinking a bit about the description I wondered if it might be a matter of the wrong input voltage being selected. Went back had another look at the pics and sure enough, the switches were set for 220. It arrived today. I switched it to 120 and whaddaya know, absolutely nothing wrong with it. Thing is brand freakin new in original box and I got to be the lucky fella to power it up for the first time for $139.40 shipped. Didn't really need another power supply and I'm a bit disappointed to be robbed of yet another repair, but for the price I can't help being pleased :)
