Hi Joe,
I have an 8562A project as well that I haven't had time for yet.
Hopefully in 2013.
Interesting :-)!
Mine was bought at eBay UK cheap, as it was non working. When I got it and fixed the power supply, I was able to barely see (without light in the room!) that it had more than 43.000 hours on it. It generated several errors: ERR 304 ROL UNLK, ERR 324 FREQ ACC and ERR 301 YTO UNLK. I was able to fix all of them (I will detail that on another post) and it seems to work, but then there is the extremely dimm display. And that is the condition it is now.
Regards,
JOSE
