Ifni save me...

I put in a offer... the guy "countered" by reducing listing to a price that split the difference. Bastard has played this game before...  :-DD

But... it came in under a c-note all told; so I just hope his positive feedback reflects well-packed merch.

Oh, and Vince...       "Agilent - Yuckyputz!" my scaly dwagon arse!

I'm leaning towards the display itself, does anyone know where such displays may be obtained from these days?

Old calculators  >:D

Or old people who have spare components. I have a box of similar displays (some even from Commodore calculators). Can you post a picture of the display component and I'll check if I have one.

Here are 4 photos, 2 each of my Commodore F4902 and SR4912 displays, although they are connected differently, I think that they are the same display module, measuring 60mm x 18mm on their small PCB.

I could swap over the displays and test out that theory later.

Hmm, so everyone's buying scopes now hey?

Do I have to go buy another to keep up with the cool kids? :-DD

Wow, congratulations Dragon !  :-+  :D

At that price it's basically free, amazing how the seller was dumb enough to price it this low, never mind accept an offer on it ?!  :o
So that means I was wrong... Ebay is not 100% filled with "professionals" trying to  screw you. Even on Ebay, even in 2022...you can still find crazy good deals !
Hmmm.... that means I must now start checking Ebay every day rather than just my local leboncoin.fr website.... OK OK....


Good deal on that one indeed. Had a quick look on Ebay US and these Agilent MSOs cost hundreds even in bad shape with broken bits and ugly yellowed plastics.

Yours looks like it's brand new, nothing missing or broken or yellowed... looks quite nice, I admit !  :-+
Plus the good thing is, the knobs are so ugly that 3D printed ones would actually look BETTER than the originals ! :-DD
So you would be forgiven for 3DP-ing a new set of knobs ! ...

Has a cool floppy drive as well !  8)

Can't wait for the unboxing and tear down....  will it come with a module at the back, which one, and if none... are your older HP modules compatible with this more modern incarnation of the scope.

Need to find a cable and grabbers for the LA now...

I notice on all the pics I see of these Agilent face-lifted HP scopes, that the CRT looks like it uses a different phosphor ? They always look a lighter shade of green I find, or it's just me ?!  :-//


There is a trend here.... who's next going to buy on of these old MSO's ?!
