I am quite interested in what looks like an old A3 format HP Plotter...

Speaking of which, there used to be a company making HP-compatible plotters and selling them by the boat load. Had one to plot films for making PCBs.

I can't for the life of me remember the name of this company. Any help?

Any chance you took some teardown pictures? We seem to be lacking detailed pictures of the CRT boards, the youtube videos don't show them in any detail and focus too much of the scope mainboard.

Yep the knobs are all newer Keysight style knobs. When I bought it I didn't pay attention to the knobs that much. When I got it the only knob that was original was the lower left intensity knob. Those original knobs can get really worn by use, I think it was the rubber coating on them. Since I'm anal I had to get the last knob replaced.  :-DD

That was like 3 years ago and Daniel B. of Keysight who (used) to post here helped me get a new knob. That was when Keysight still sortof let hobbyist schmucks buy stuff like parts. Now they don't give a shit.

The only teardown pics I have at the moment was the ones involving the keypad because the keys were not responding well and I had to do a lot of work to get the carbon pads reconditioned. Works like new now.
