The 536 contains identical vertical and horizontal amplifiers. This allows an equal bandwidth of 11MHz in both directions. It also has a special CRT with equal bandwidths in both directions. Aside from the amplifiers, the only other circuitry in the entire scope is the power supplies and calibrator.
