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. | |||
