Hi, my name is Peter (who would have guessed?). I was born and live in Austria.  Originally an EE, my current day job is in IT, in an international environment.


===Scopes===
The first Tek instrument I worked with – around 1982 IIRC – was a [[T912]] "vacuum cleaner" which I must say left me "slightly underimpressed" compared with my favourites at the time, the HP 1740 series.

For budget reasons, the first scope I bought for myself, circa 1986, was a rather pedestrian Kenwood 100 MHz 2-ch portable (a la [[465]]).   
<gallery>
It did pay for itself through a consulting engagement (2nd generation products of this effort are still in service),
Tek-7a11-front.jpg  | [[7A11]]  
but I learned only some time later what the difference between a ''passable'' scope like that and a ''good'' scope was, when I compared them side by side in overdrive ...

The first Tek scope in my own possession was the [[7613]] pictured below, which I bought in early 2014.   
Tek-7b53a-front.jpg | [[7B53A]]
Looking for manuals (its power supply needed some TLC), I found TekWiki.   
Tek-7b70-front.jpg | [[7B70]]
The resurrected 7613 did not remain alone for long.
Tek 7b80 front.jpg | [[7B80]]
I worked my way up from ''good'' scopes to ''extraordinary'' ones – see below for the current population of ''Vintage Tek Sanctuary Central Europe''.

One thing led to another ... having been familiar with Mediawiki (I set up a corporate Intranet with that software in 2006 that is still in use), I started getting involved in this site's software side as well, and over the years helped expand its coverage a bit.
