Description
Offered at BIN is a refurbred & freshly calibrated Tek 2467B scope with options 6 (frequency counter) & 10 (gpib), and 14 days guaranty (1 year is available for 0 more). Instruction book pdf is included. While GPIB option is fairly useless on analog scopes, the counter option is quite useful, and when not used as a counter on the channel used for triggering, it defaults to enhancing the accuracy and resolution of the dual delaying/delayed time base system.Offering more (to get more) is why I enabled the BIN button. In case offering more doesn't work, I will still sell you what you want. Please refrain from offering less than BIN as pay cuts do not incentivise my best effort on your behalf (besides Ebay already cuts my pay by taking an eighth)... If you insist on on offering me less, I will expect you to be satisfied with a lesser model (eg: a no options 2467B at 00, or a 2467 without the B suffix at even less).
The Tek 2467B is the image intensifying version of the 2465B which was the last and best performing (4 channels 400MHz) portable analog scope Tek made (1989-1996), so you can't get any better! It is ideal for looking at low rep rate fast transients and detecting infrequent jitters (if you don't look at such demanding signals you can save by getting my 2465B). It is also the last series Tek made to be repairable. Years from now 2467Bs could still be active while their less repairable, younger (SMT populated, without published schematics) digitizing relatives get tossed out. It cost new 000, but you can now get it for just a tiny fraction, working just fine from me.
I choose to work on 2400s because they were the last repairable scopes Tek made. 2400s are my specialty, so mine shall arrive working correctly, whether you're buying just 1 or several to outfit an entire lab or classroom. Please keep in mind if buying another's 2467B that chances are, regardless of price, almost certain theirs will have problems (I know, I buy them too) regardless of how seller presents it... can't expect those selling for less to have had even their aging Li battery, let alone other failing parts replaced. As reliable as 2400s are, there are many out there with close to 100 thousand hours, enough time to have accumulated multiple problems, which you don't want. 2400s I sell had their issues fixed. This is why mine justifiably cost more than others'. Getting a non-DOA guaranty from another seller misses the point that consuming electricity is not the same as working correctly. Those who say "pulled from a working environment" are hinting it quit (if you miss subtle hints or codes). Those who say "passes self tests" do not understand self test does not check signal path, but rather processor's memory.
First photo shows the fast rising edge of a square wave as 1.07 nanoseconds (curser separation; combined risetime of scope & source) when stretched by sweeping at 500picoseconds/division. This is a far more demanding test than showing a probe compensation signal at 1millisecond/div, more commonly seen. 2nd photo shows a 1MHz signal from my time mark gen both deflected horizontally correctly and being counted correctly by the counter option. 3rd photo shows 1mS tickmarks with 8mS separation being measured with the added accuracy of the counter option in dual time base mode where the lower traces are swept 10X faster than the upper main trace. The intensified zones cause "blooming" in the camera which can't handle the contrast range well, but the screen display is really fine. 4th photo shows the screen lit up by a sine wave signal sized to use the entire screen and show there are no burn marks, a frequent problem with 2467Bs sold by others. 5th photo shows 16579 hours and 76 power cycles logged (seems to have been left on for a week or month at a time). 6th shows rear. 7th shows bottom. 8th photo shows a P6137 probe you can add by offering 0 more. You may be able to find cheaper new probes elsewhere on Ebay such as P6500 (from China), which should work fine with this scope. My time is best spent taking care of scopes rather than sourcing probes for you.
BTW, because 2467Bs, unlike 2465Bs, have a screensaver, it is entirely possible the majority of the hours were spent with the CRT beam cut off, so higher hours on a 2467B may not be as bad as same hours on a 2465B.
Available serial #s are B010819 (shown in photos, made in 1989 with 16579 hours, no SMT) and B053505 (not shown in photos, made in 1994 with 17443 hours, some SMT boards). First buyer gets first choice.

Please make sure Ebay has your current correct ship-to address before you pay, as that is where I must send item. Mistakes are costlier to fix after you pay, and I cannot offer refunds, but only store credit. Please, if in doubt, ask questions before paying.
I ship worldwide. International Airmail does not offer tracking and delivery confirmation, which Ebay requires, so no USPS please. DHL, UPS, FEDEX, and ebay's Global Shipping Program do offer good tracking.
I have nothing to do with the requirement by many of the 50 States to have Ebay collect sales tax for them. I do not collect sales tax for any other State on my own sales. If you are outside California and don't feel like paying a large sales tax, buy something cheap(er) from me first (eg: a probe or a pouch) and a workaround will present itself. Also, the reason I cannot presently offer cash refunds (but just store credit) is because Ebay and its payment platforms differ in their definition of 'full refund" - one expects full return of what you paid, whereas the other considers full return of what I got. Since I never get your sales tax or shipping (Ebay handles them), "full refund" according to one would require I go "into the hole" for you, which I won't. Please buy prudently, aware that there are some irreversible frictional losses in the pay system.
Buy more INCENTIVE: I will give you a 10% DISCOUNT on any other item you buy from me. You may want to buy something else from me first (eg: a probe, or a top pouch) to save 10% on this item (and maybe your state sales tax). Sequence matters.
HURRY INCENTIVE: If you BIN (or more) by 2 July 21, I will add a Tek P6063B switchable probe FREE. You may still want to start with a probe first to save 10% on the scope and wind up with 2 probes.
