Comparing things to the Sams folder is a bad way to check your scope for accuracy. Sams often have mistakes, many of the circuits in the TV (which isn't working properly) have wide tolerances, and your 465 probably has 10 times the bandwidth as the one Sams used (meaning high frequency signals, and fast pulses will appear larger on your scope).

Yes, the calibrator is 1V and with the probe in 1x and .5V/Div I get a perfect square wave. I then put the probe in 10x and 50m/Div and get another perfect square wave.
See my other post where the 125VAC shows up as 325V on the scope.
