This Tektronix 577 Curve Tracer, with 177 Standard Test fixture, the A1007 Adaptor and a complete photocopied User Manual is from a research lab, has been gently used, and in excellent condition.  All controls and functions are working as they should and unit is very clean inside and out.  It comes with everything shown in the photos, including power cord, and nothing else. The CRT is bright and sharp, no phosphor burns at all, and the Storage function is working 100%.  I have included pics for a 2N3904 NPN and a 2N3906 PNP transistor, and displayed their curves using the same settings (except polarity).  Also see the photo of the trace for a 16V zener diode, tested with AC applied, and the curves for a 2N5484 N-ch JFET.  (NOTE:  Two of the full-front photos which also had the JFET traces may appear to be missing the middle part of the trace; this is because I was using a slow rep rate on the current step, and the camera captured these two images mid-scan.  There is no problem with the unit.)   The last calibration date is unknown, and though my own practical testing indicates it is measuring voltage and current accurately, unfortunately it is not certified. There are two minor issues that have no effect on the unit's proper operation: (1) two knobs (the Base-Emitter selector switch on the 177 fixture, and the Variable Collector% knob on the mainframe) have cracked and been epoxied back together, but are solid, and (2) the clear plastic cover is missing from the safety cover, so high-voltage measurements require manually depressing the interlock switch, as directed in the user's manual. A perfect unit for a design lab or a home electronics experimenter or custom amplifier builder, working as well as it did the day it was built.  My auction is starting at the incredibly low bid of $350, with no reserve.  I will ship it via Canada Post, well-packed and insured, to the winner upon receipt of PayPal payment.  (I will accommodate other modes of payment and local pickup if you are in the Ottawa, Ontario area--please contact me if you wish to pick up BEFORE making payment.)  Feel free to e-mail me if you want more info or pictures.  Good luck! Inernational eBayers, sorry, but I ship only to Canada and the US 50.  If you don't have a Canadian or US shipping address, please do not bid on this item.  Thanks.
Working 100%, but 177 Test Fixture is missing its clear plastic safety cover, so high voltage tests require manually depressing the interlock switch. Also, two switches' knobs have been repaired with epoxy, but are solid (see photos).
