[[Tektronix]] started producing '''[[wikipedia:Oscilloscope|oscilloscopes]]''' with the model [[511]] in [[Introduced in 1947|1947]], at which time the [[wikipedia:Vacuum tube|vacuum tube]] was the primary active device, and remained so into the 1960s. <br />

While [[wikipedia:Transistor|transistors]] were used increasingly in such instruments from the mid-1950s on, this section contains instruments and instrument families primarily based on vacuum tubes (aka valves).
