== Mechanical ==
The 661 is constructed similarly to late-model [[500-series scopes]].
The chassis is made of sheet aluminum.
Most wiring is on [[Ceramic_Strips|ceramic strips]].
The side panels come off like those of a [[545|545B]] or [[547]].
The plug-ins of a 661 are incompatible with any other Tek scope,
but the construction style is similar.
The 661, like the 500-series scopes, uses Amphenol 26-series connectors
for the electrical interface between plug-in and mainframe.
The sides and rear of the 661 painted identically to late-model
500-series scopes, i.e., Tek-blue wrinkle.
