there's a fair number of older HP VNAs (875x and similar) in the kilobuck range on eBay - I guess if you don't mind the large mass, and the CRT is in decent shape AND you have a way to get .s2p files out, that would be another way to go.

I think the modern USB pods in that same price range are probably a better deal overall.
