Did they actually pull off that deal with GTE for service.
I was there training some of those ****ers.

Could it be they don't want to do anymore service, perhaps it cheaper just
to replace those new off seas plastic cheap ones one under warrantee.
I called them about a Tek 2232 and someone on the other end got all ****ed
off, said call GTE for service ?

Tektronix is trying to manipulate the oscilloscope market. Today I learned
from
my local dealership that they are required by contract to destroy every
scope
which is traded in for a new Tektronix scope, regardless of age or
condition. So
if you decide to trade in that old scope for a Tektronix, know ahead of
time
that it is NOT going to end up in the hands of a ham, or of some kid
learning
and experimenting in electronics on a tight budget like I was thir... er,
twenty
years ago. No, Tektronix needs to raise their profits by destroying every
used
scope they can get their greedy little hands on, regardless of who feels
the
pinch!
