- For all you folks looking for Tektronix oscilloscope manuals, old CRTs,
- etc., there is a retired Tek engineer who has quite a stock of old Tek
- manuals and such:
-
- Deane Kidd
- 27270 Ladd Hill Road
- Sherwood, Oregon 97140
- (503) 625-7363
-
- Deane worked at Tek for 40 years, and was the guy in charge of telling
- the rest of us we hadn't done it right yet. He is taking care of the old
- stuff because he thinks that is part of doing it right (you can decide for
- yourself what current Tek corporate policy is). He is probably as much to
- thank as anyone for the old - but still usable - Tek equipment that you
- folks are trying to scrounge parts and manuals for. If not for him, the
- stuff would have fallen apart a long time ago.
-
- Deane sells this old stuff as a labor of love, and he isn't getting rich
- doing it. If you think his prices are too high, or that he doesn't act
- like a "real businessman", you don't have to do business with him. If
- you are a connoisseur of classic instrumentation, be glad to have an
- opportunity to deal with one of the men that made it happen.
