Sadly doesn't work anymore as it was dropped and damaged. Found it at an ewaste site with the idea to build an ITX pc inside with a little DIY digital oscilloscope replacing the screen connected to the audio out so you can see the wave form as you listen to music or play games

I’ve got half a dozen of similar Tek scopes myself, along with a number of much older scopes from the 60s and a handful of others as well - they’re very pretty. Easy to work on, too, long as you stay careful around HV parts. You definitely should keep it around and consider restoring it as opposed to putting a PC inside of it, cool as that may sound. But either way, I’m glad it found a better home than a dumpster!
