Argh, my main scope is a Tek 2213... though I still use my hp1980
sometimes.

I have a photocopy of the operator's manual. At some point I was
also looking for the service manual and I found a message in the
archives of some high-frequency hobbyist mailing list (which
I can't find now, but I have a hard copy).
They referred the person who was asking about this to
Deane Kidd, W7TYR, ex-TeK employee, and who runs a business
supplying manuals for older TeK scopes. The contact info:
Deane Kidd, 27270 S.W. Ladd Hill Rd., Sherwood, OR 97140,
(503) 625-7363 .
