#1 Tektronix TDS224 4 Chan 100MHz 1G sample/sec/chan

Post by jack »

Another gem...

A very lightly used Tektronix TDS 224, 4 channel, 1G sample per sec per chan, true 100MHz... 4 as-new P6112 100MHz Tektronix probes (one still sealed in bag). Instructions, GPIB I/O module... Iovely little scope in near mint condition.

Had this from new when I attended a Tektronix course years ago, but have not used it much as I mainly use a Tektronix 2465A..

Bargain at £275 including pretty carrying bag... Photos to follow.
These are selling (completed items) on eBay at over £375 ....

Reasonable offers also considered.

If the contrast is good and subject to some photos, I would be interested. I still have the 2 channel one I bought new about 25 years ago ! And others of course.

Thanks

Dave

Ah, that Dave Crawley sure is a lurker :wink: Not posted here for ages, but bounces back up when there is a bargain to be had. :D Not knocking it at all. Just making an observation. Draw your own conclusion, and also see my response in the 1200 at 78rpm thread. Jack could do a better ethical sale than this one I would hope.

It wasn't sold to Dave - it went to a well known and highly respected long time member of the group :)

As it turns out, it is a non-issue anyway and for sure it is not a problem unless you apply some ethics to the matter. Of course, Ethics is subjective. Compared with me, YMMV.

OK Greg, I get it. I'm out of here. Nick made a suggestion elsewhere for people to come here. I see now that was insincere, a shame but hey that's forums for you !!

Er, absolutely no, you've got me completely wrong on this. I read Nick's invite elsewhere and applaud it. I can't speak for Nick but I doubt anything he wrote elsewhere was ever insincere. My objection has been to the manner of your return. Your trading sensibilities did not allow you to consider primarily just making a positive contribution, but rather, whatever you can make from a situation. If I couple that with your appalling management of the WD forum for the short time you disastrously (almost to the point of destruction) owned it, you can understand why I'm not being very conducive towards you. You could have approached your return here in such a much more positive and contributory manner, being a long time trader and also a designer of quality kit, but you blew it. Kind of 'Bull in a China shop' effect you had when you owned WD. It's a shame. RD in contrast took the option to rejoin. His introductory approach was to offer a tweak for speakers that gave no benefit to himself whatsoever. Regardless of the value of his post, surely his contributory attitude was appropriately more complimentary than yours.

It's a kind of 'Look and Learn' thing. Some of us got it in junior school; some never did.

Can I just point out that if Dave had bought Nicks (Jack) scope that would have been a positive contribution. A long time member had a item to sell, he sold it. Thats a good outcome irrespective of who buys it.

Not sure I did. Of course as always all are welcome, but I would have regarded it as impolite to suggest on one forum that people posted to another.

Yep, you simply stated your no rules principle and that RD's membership of AT had never been terminated. You made no invitation for him to rejoin. The fact that he has is simply a consequence.

I'm interested to hear why Dave thinks he has been libeled.(according to his posts on another forum)

That is a serious accusation if it can be substantiated. :(

Maybe you should ask him, rather than just keeping the topic going.
