Yes, that's correct. It uses the inferior Tek CRT - the DM63 uses one by English Electric which is a lot better.
Not that I'm an expert on storage CRTs - far from it. I'm just quoting what I've read in several other reliable/trusted sources, and it sticks in my mind because it's unusual for Tek to be the inferior player in any game
That said, we do have a 7000-series 'scope at work with analogue storage, and that really is lovely. If the size of a small house!
Still, the storage stuff can be safely ignored for now. It's not a facility that I use all that often personally. Perhaps the most useful option is the variable persistence mode when sweep speeds are slow, or when you're using it in X-Y mode for IF lineups and similar...
