Manufacturer: TEKTRONIX (USA)
Model: 503, S#3801
Vintage: 1963
Purpose: General Purpose
Condition: Working
Comments:
The 503 oscilloscope might be the most well known scope by Tektronix, simply because it was made to be used in schools and for education in general. It is not a fancy one. It is simple but rugged and easy to fix if needed. The earlier models (like this one) have tubes as a first signal amplifier, later ones use nuvistors. It is still useful today to display vector graphics because of its high sensitive XY capabilities. This scope came with the original Tektronix cover, very nice and useful.
