No light bulb mounted on it so that's good... well there IS a lamp on top of it, but I can see its base so it's just sitting atop the TE, not bolted to it I think  :phew:

It's too far away in the background to figure out exactly what it is, completely out of focus. Some kind of old HP spectrum analyzer perhaps ?!  :-//

It's a rack mount HP 180x series oscilloscope, possibly 181AR storage version, with something like 1820C or 1824A timebase. With some scrap metal sitting on top of it.  :-DD

No not me, I don't buy from sites that are not in English as it's the only language I know, yes I know that sounds stupid, but in my days at school, languages was not really an option.

There had to be a good reason why he was asking UK folks about it. The currency and location might be a big clue that this is an ebay UK seller whose listing just also happens to show up on ebay DE.



Oh, and the 'but we didn't do that at school' is the kind of poor excuse that gets us Brits almost as poor a reputation as the 'Merkins get over speaking foreign languages. I didn't learn any German or Italian at school but at least made an attempt to learn some before setting foot in the respective countries, in fact I'd consider it bloody rude to go there without learning at least the very basics.

Watch out for anything from Rushden in ebay. It might be Chinese drop shippers. Lots of warehousing around there used for that sort of stuff.

Found a slightly clearer bit of the video. Definitely a HP 181AR storage scope with 1805A vertical & 1820C timebase, good for 100MHz, I don't have either plug-in.
