I have a 453 here that worls like a champ to this day. Setup the same with 6
nuvistors. Those were some pretty darn tough old scopes if they had been taken
decent care of. The only fault I really had was the calibration jack is on the
side and not on the front making it hard to put a probe on while setting in
front of the scope. I cant remember if the 454 has that or not. Manuals and
probes are available on ebay, and I think a PDF manual over at Bama. Heck, I
bought a lot of 6 Tek probes with extra tips, etc, etc in a bag for $6. The 453
generally sells for about $50-$100 on ebay as it's only 50 MHz but is a good
one.
Best,
Will
