I must watch that Video later as I haven't seen it before.
I doubt if it's fast enough for characterising Transmission lines unless it was at pretty low Frequencies.
The Earth connection is indeed an Electrolytic Twist Tab although it's part of the body not a Clamp and there are three. Tektronix thought it was good enough to connect it to the Chassis.
I don't think the Americans did anything different with Manufacturing, it's just that Tek ran them very conservatively. From what I've seen of American Radios they're just as bad as ours when it comes to sweating the Resistors.
542? It's not in BAMA or Tekwiki.
