 The '''Sony/Tektronix 336''' is a 50 MHz dual-trace dual-timebase portable digital storage scope with a full-bandwith analog mode. It represents the highest end model of the 300 series of portable scopes.
-The carrying handle doesn't have solid retentions like many other Tek handles, it is friction-based instead through rubber washers clamped by the handle. When using the handle to hold the scope at an angle there is only one relatively stable position where the handlebar rests flat on the supporting surface. But even then it shouldn't be carelessly nudged...
+The carrying handle doesn't have fixed detents like many other Tek handles. Instead, it is friction-based. The friction between handle and case may be adjusted by screws hidden underneath the plastic side caps. With correctly adjusted friction, the handle can be rotated and will stay in any position, allowing positioning the 'scope at a convenient angle.
-There is a removable accessory pouch screwed to the top for probes and cables.

 GPIB is an option (01) and brings extra waveform memory as well. Standard and extended memory are volatile and (presumably) capacitor or battery backed SRAM ("Data retention: At least 3 days after 8 hours of operation").

 X-Y mode with 1 MHz bandwidth. Phase difference is less than 3° to 50 kHz.
+The 336A successor has an increased sampling rate of 20 MS/s, autosetup for time and voltage (i.e. horizontal and vertical), more memory and 8 setup storage locations. It was offered at the same catalog price as the 336.
