Re: HP8920B Power supply capacitors??
Hi, thanks for a lot of information. I would like to know more about RT1: you say that is a 10 ohm NTC.But, the ID in one of sides is 0033. Do you now how I can get a similar one? Thanks in advance.

Sposed to be 600 ohms, I think. Yep, the needle moves with nothing connected. I bought this thing at the TRW swap meet back in 1992 or 1993. I haven't used it much, but it did help me verify my own

Re: new File called App notes
Me, too. I have a 400E and just checked it after not having used it for some time. On the most sensitive range, -60 dB 0.001 V, the needle moves around a fair amount with open input BNC, and if that

HP 400x AC voltmeter low-noise mods - was: new File called App notes
Sure, it'll fit bc it's nothing more -- at this point, in my mind -- than a simple part-for-part swap. The BNC retrofit is a complete no brainer, complicated only by the need for a ground-isolated BNC

HP 400F low noise mods
I'm interested to hear about the low noise mod you make and if it would fit into a 400E or 400EL since they have BNC input already.

Ah-HA! Yes, THAT is the scumbag. I thought his drek was vomited upon the world in the 1970s, seems it was later, in 1983. At 80 years old, it hardly seems worth choking him now, though it sure is nice

Re: Decline, was Re: [HP-Agilent-Keysight-equipment] new File called App notes
It DOES, though. I feel (and increasingly I think I'm alone in this!) that inefficiency is inherently bad. Having lots of memory available doesn't make code unnecessarily fat...laziness does.

Re: Decline, was Re: [HP-Agilent-Keysight-equipment] new File called App notes
Part of this is, of course, due to the size and cost of available memory.? Back then, software of any kind (usually) had to be compact and elegant just in order to fit into the available space.?
