Re: HP-608A Repair
Max,
I too had the sticking meter syndrome. It's easy to repair. You remove the meter (two panel screws and two connection nuts) and then take the front bezel off. There is a tiny screw adjustment

Re: HP-608A Repair
I am having attenuator problems also, with a Marconi TF1066/4. The attenuator rack, made of plastic, had broken because the generator had been removed from the case carelessly. I repaired it with

Re: HP-608A Repair
Doug,

Re: 3456A Voltmeter
The nice big old lab/bench type DMMs will usually be a good deal in terms of performance v. price, since most people are looking for more modern, smaller types. Unless you plan to become a volt-nut,

Steve,
Thanks for the comments. I was sure it was not worth a whole lot so I

Re: HP-608A Repair
HP 608D's are good units, just big. If you are going to use it and space is not a problem, by all means fix it if you do not have to spend too much.
