I have the opportunity to buy a high-end Tek TDS7404 scope, 4 channel, 4GHz, the works. Did I mention Very Cheap?
Only one issue: the self test generates an error: 'Acquisition error # 321".
I have not been able to find a service manual. No idea what the error means, and I am weary to buy it without knowing what is wrong with it.
Anybody knows this scope or has access to service info?

One important thing - for use of normal oscilloscope probes (10MOhm input) you should need to have a special TCA-BNC TekConnect adapters, otherwise is oscilloscope for low frequency work pretty useless!

Yes I found out it only has 50 ohms inputs, so I decided not to get it.
Thanks for the heads up, though!
