Take a peek at the Tektronix web site and then see whether you can find the
backward reference to the Sony 'scope, which is what this model really is.
Sony has a good likelihood of having the doc somewhere, though it may not be
accessible. Try a Google search as well. Last but not least, try the
newsgroup sci.electronics.equipment. Somebody there probably has the stuff
you need, though you may have to get out your wallet to get it.
The bandwidth is adequate for the most rudimentary of applications, but, for
example, if you need to examine DRAM timing, you may be at a disadvantage.

Subject: Tektronix 422
Having always wanted an oscilloscope (but being very
cheap), today I picked
up a Tektronix 422 portable
oscilloscope with ac/dc internal/external power supply
at a thrift store for
$12. Just the instrument itself.
So, first I want to see if it functions at all. I don't have the power
cord,
and it takes an odd six-pin cord. The
internal batteries are, of course, discharged. Anyone
have a power cord, or
source for one, or at least the
plug?
If it powers up, I would like to get it apart. I got the power supply off
with no
problem. Anyone have a basic
assembly diagram?
If it then seems worth while, I would like the manuals and probes.
Suggestions?
I know it is only 15 MHz, but that should be plenty for computers running no
faster
that 4 MHz, correct?
All help appreciated.
Louis
