I had to repair my scope awhile back and I took some shots for reference, this is the cpu board:- http://www.pbjtech.com/downloads/TDS210-CPU.jpg

Can't really answer that, but if you had asked me how useless I find it, well....

I have v1.17 - anyone know what the differences are? Bug frixes, enhancements? I haven't opened mine - anyone looked inside? I would guess that the code is in a nice fat ROM or flash ... but there may be PLD updates or even circuit changes, so just changing the code might result in a frankenscope... Does Tektronix offer an upgrade kit? The TDS210 service manual is available online (I found it with a bit of googling) - it may have notes about hardware differences of various versions.

I have V1.09 ... :) I do not believe this was user-upgradable :(

I've googled and dead-ended on this one, maybe someone in this group can 
help.

I have an original TDS210 digital scope with the original V1.0 firmware 
and the Communications module is V1.02. I have used other TDS210's with 
newer firmware and I want to upgrade my V1.0. I want to do this myself 
so does anybody know what is required to upgrade the firmware for this 
unit?

TIA
