Buying a used or legacy oscilloscope usually comes down to one thing: keeping a bench standardised. If your test procedures, probes or software are built around a particular brand, swapping to whatever's cheapest on the new-equipment market isn't really an option. That's the gap this category fills.
Unlike a lot of our test-equipment stock, this category isn't a single legacy brand wearing several hats — it's a genuine cross-section of oscilloscope manufacturers, current and legacy alike. Legacy Agilent scopes make up the bulk of the volume, but Tektronix, Keysight Technologies, Teledyne LeCroy, Fluke and Rohde & Schwarz all sit alongside them.
That mix matters if you're replacing a scope on a bench that's standardised on a particular brand's probe connectors and software, or if you're simply after the best-priced unit that meets the bandwidth and channel-count spec. We are not Agilent, Tektronix, Keysight, Teledyne LeCroy, Fluke and Rohde & Schwarz, and not an authorised Agilent, Tektronix, Keysight, Teledyne LeCroy, Fluke and Rohde & Schwarz distributor — we source and supply genuine Agilent, Tektronix, Keysight, Teledyne LeCroy, Fluke and Rohde & Schwarz stock through the open market and established distribution channels, with datasheets and certificates of conformity available on request.
