Next to my bench, I have a couple of TDS 784As, a TDS 694C, an 11801C, and
an 11802 that JL kindly donated when I went out on my own, lo these fifteen
years ago. Also several SD-14s and SD-24s, plus at least one of all the
other heads except the SD-32. 

I use them all regularly. 

My favorite is the 694C—3GHz, 10GSa/s simultaneously on all four channels.
It’s 50 ohms only, but I also have the matching 4GHz FET probes. 

A 12-bit scope might be useful if the ENOB is anything like that, but I
have doubts, especially in a 250 MHz bandwidth.
