  • Tektronix introduced the '7000' series oscilloscopes in 1970, known for their plug-in architecture, performance, and flexibility.
  • Soviet oscilloscopes like the C1-115 and C1-122 from the Lithuanian '555' factory in 1977 show strong resemblance to Tektronix designs.
  • The author acquired a set of manuals for the C1-112 mainframe and plugins, including circuit diagrams and calibration certificates, for 5zł.
  • Future plans include comparing Tektronix and Soviet oscilloscope designs to identify similarities and differences.
