On the TDS 210 and 220, the bitmap is also terrible, but you can download the data tables which is 2,500 data points wide and plot it yourself. I wrote a program under VB 6.0 that does that (over the serial interface). It is available on my web site: http://www.ko4bb.com Didier KO4BB Sent from my BlackBerry Wireless thingy while I do other things... -----Original Message----- From: "J.

Plotters use HP-GL. HP and Tektronix have been competitors for decades. HP won and Tek was sold out to corporate pirates. Tek had Plot 10, but it was incompatible with just about everything else. AFAIK, only Tek gear ran Plot 10. On my Tek TDS the resolution of the bitmap is terrible. I'll take a 465 and digital camera any day, and twice on Sundays.
