go right to the catalog! Skip the INTRO, Go RIGHT to the CATALOG!

*These are all the scopes we have in stock from all vendors. They are organized by manufacturer. All are used, overhauled units, returned as closely as we can to factory new condition. We have original factory cal fixtures for the larger Tek frames.

* NAVIGATION: To make your life easier, and help you find exactly what you want, we have broken the on-line equipment catalogs into smaller sections. Just CLICK on the item you are looking for at the left, to see the matching catalog. Large graphical catalogs are a bit SLOW, so please give them a bit of time to load. The top header of each catalog is largely the same, so don't think you are stuck in one place!

You can order anything here just by picking up the phone, and calling (250) 769-1834 during normal office hours, 8:30AM to 4:30PM PST OR, Email your order to Susan CLICKHERE.

* E-Mail Susan if you want a quote for shipping to other destinations, or for something heavy. Sorry, we can't safely send most individual small parts in a regular letter envelope, they get destroyed by the automated handling equipment. Sometimes we can ship very rugged parts in a small padded envelope by letter post. Ask Susan.

*There is a packing charge for large or heavy equipment, see the FAQ for details.

*If we have your valid data on file, you can just click on the ORDER email link to place an order and indicate your approval to bill, and we will do the rest. We keep your active information for ONE YEAR for your convenience.

*If this is the first time you have dealt with us, you can phone +1 (250) 769-1834 to supply the billing info, or send it by the email link, as you prefer. We accept VISA/MC, international money order, Paypal (to Susan@Okanagan.net), and bank wire transfer. Please note that there are transaction fees with Paypal and wire transfer payments, the wire transfer fee is frankly horrifying.

We accept VISA/MC or international money order

* CONDITION: To answer your questions, YES, we completely check and inspect all used equipment, and do not offer any we feel is substandard. That gear is normally scrapped, broken down for parts, or may get offered as-is in the HOT DEALS section, with the unit's condition clearly identified. If there are any marks or detracting features, we clearly state them in the listing. Before shipment, we burn in the equipment for 24 hrs. again and re-check to be sure it is good prior to shipment.

* The CATALOG will appear below shortly!
Don't forget these illustrated sections take a few seconds to load, but they are worth the wait!

Philips
PHILIPS/FLUKE SCOPES
Philips


CLICK HERE to order a Philips/Fluke Scope!

All of these scopes are USED, Overhauled and calibrated, and may have minor cosmetic scuffs and marks.

This series of late production scopes from Philips/Fluke are all based on the same core technology and control layout. Analog scopes have a secondary LCD display to show all control settings, and level/speed are selected with slew switches. The Auto-set switch gives one touch set up of all functions from triggering to level and sweep, an incredible time saver for many people. All scopes in this family include full TV triggering, as well as all regular internal/external modes, and scopes can have 1 or 2 full timebases to permit delayed, mixed and alternate timebase operation, a real help with waveforms that have both fast and slow characteristics.

The famous COMBISCOPES have full function analog AND digital operation, giving the best possible presentation for each application, and still featuring Auto-Set.

Philips scopes use a different 10x probe detection sceme than Tek scopes, and only the original Philips probes are correctly detected for the on screen and LCD displays. Any probe that can be compensated correctly will work, but display data will be as if the scope had 1X probes connected. We have a small quantity of the original Philips/Fluke probes sets available with a scope purchase ONLY, see data below.
Add genuine Philips 100Mhz 10X indicating probe kits (NEW!) to any Philips scope for $90 each. Available with scope purchase only.

Tektronix 2235
100MHz Portable Oscilloscope

Dual trace scope with full X/Y capability and flexible vertical modes. Supports alternate A/B sweep with delay, see a generic example HERE. Vertical sensitivity down to 2mV/division, plus has channel inversion and bandwidth limiting. Has TV line and field triggering. This is the successor to the 465/B from Tektronix, and is a big improvement in terms of weight (1/3 the weight of a 465!) and eay to carry, plus dual sweep capability. A great scope to operate. Silent, no Fan.

Exceptionally nice condition inside and out.

Late, production, fully inspected, cleaned, overhauled and cal'd, plus additional 24 Hr. burn in and re-test before shipment. Lots of CRT intensity reserve, for long service life. Has low inrush, slow start switching power supply. Add a pair of NEW P6100 1X/10X 100Mhz probes for $69.

BONUS: Includes full factory manuals and Tek cross-ref on CD!

TektronixTM500 Mainframes and Scope Plug-ins
TM515 frame with dual scopes
SC500 series scopes are a miracle of mechanical packaging, offering the performance of Tek's best portables in tiny TM500 series modules. They make it possible to configure a very compact free-standing lab set up without the need for an additonal scope. Note, calibration of these scopes requires use of special TM500 cable extenders, and is not always simple to do in the field. There is also a single width single trace SC501, for low frequency monitor use, but we do not normally stock that unit.
SC502/3/4 Oscilloscopes
TM500 Plug-in Scopes can provide up to 80Mhz of bandwidth, dual channel (SC504), with most usuable beyond 100Mhz. They have the same capabilities as full blown Tek scopes, including full external triggering and XY operation, all in a tiny package. There are 3 double width scopes:

SC502, 15Mhz, Dual Trace, 1mV/div.
$425


SC503, 10Mhz, Dual Trace Storage, 1mV/div.
$495


SC504, 80Mhz, Dual Trace, 5mV/div.
$895


There is also a single width single trace SC501, for low frequency monitor use.
