The February Advertisement of the Month comes from the museum archives. It was the promotional image that was never used. The 2246 oscilloscope is a 100 MHz 4 channel oscilloscope introduced in 1987. It was priced at $2,400, or about $6,848 in 2026 dollars.
From the 1987 catalog:
Higher Performance, Lower Price
The performance/price ratio for portable oscilloscopes has been substantially upgraded. No other portable scope can offer the range of productivity enhancing features and performance characteristics at a comparably low price than the Tektronix NEW 2245 and 2246.
The marketing group thought this was a clever enough promotion to least to create this image but it was never used and the posters destroyed. We believe very few of these posters exist and we have a framed copy at the museum.

Advertisements of the Month: Sept 2025 - Present.
