Dear Colleagues,
I need some help and or tips on how to remove frozen Allen set-screws like the ones found on equipment knobs.
The typical scenario happens when trying to remove a stubborn set screw. The Allen wrench "slips" and rounds the insertion pattern slightly. Has anyone heard of a slightly oversized set of Allen wrenches (on the order of .001" - .002") or is this the wrong approach? If they exist, who supplies them?
Any comments and/or suggestions are welcome.
Regards,
Mike DiGirolamo, W4XN Charlottesville, VA 22901

Re: 5245 counter service manual
Greetings from a lurker and test equipment junkie :-)
The USM-207 is not the same as a 5245. I have had both and I expect the circuitry probably isn't even the same. Although I didn't check the manuals when I had the equipment.
The -207 I had did come with the 500 MHz converter, and I think there may have been others available, but I never found out for sure.
Back to lurking.

Re: 5245 counter service manual
-----------------------------------
Dave,
The only version of the HP 5245L that I've found on the LOGSA site is called the CP-772A/U (and maybe also the CP-772/U), which appears to be an H96-5245L.
On the LOGSA site, they have only the parts-list manual for the unit. There are two other TMs for it that are NOT on line, there. Their TM numbers are listed in the parts-list manual, which is TM 11-6625-1682-24P.
The downloadable parts manual, unlike many of the other LOGSA parts-list manuals, DOES have detailed board/component-layout and exploded view diagrams, with lists of part numbers. But for component values, you either have to decipher them from the part numbers or have a copy of the Federal Logistics (Fedlog) database.
According the the Fedlog database, the 5245M is called the CP-1049P/U. But I couldn't find any manuals for it, on LOGSA, searching titles for CP-1049 and also searching by its NSN/NIIN numbers for the two 5245M versions listed.
Good luck!
Regards,
Tom Gootee

Is USM-207 the correct designator? From a quick comparison there seem to be some quite significant differences between the 5245L and the USM207-so much so I doubt the USM 207 manual may be much use for a 5245L.

Hi
I have a copy of the service manual(5245L) plus manual changes until June 1979. I can scan the pages or schematics you need.

Re: 5245 counter service manual
Hi Dave and all the List, Is USM-207 the correct designator? I think it is not... When I was trying to repair my 5245M I fount a WEB page with links to the USM-207 manuals and, not, it is not same beast. It could be similar in design but definitely very different externally.

Re: 5245 counter service manual

I posted an album with photos that I hope will make my question clear. Please view and help me if you can. Any comments about this unit and general assistance with HP documentation would be welcome. I know the data is good in the HP manuals but it's like I have to learn to read all over again. Maybe I've studied too many Tektronix manuals.:)
Thanks in advance for any help and comments.

HP 8557A Spectrum Analyzer
Good morning Group,
I recently purchased a 8557A that looks to be in good condition but I don't have a display so I haven't been able to check it out. Neither have I been able to find a service manual but I do have a manual for the 8558A which at least is similar. My Question is, there seems to be a missing lead from the compression fitting labled LO OUT located on the top surface about in the center of the unit. Can someone help me to determine where this lead terminates. A photo of the top view of the unit would be great if you could e-mail a copy to me. Also what is the connector at the top left rear from the front view. It looks like some sort of interlock or a contact point from within the cabinet. I have a HP 180d scope frame on the way. Will the 180d have the necessary options required for the basic operation of this unit?
Anyone with experience with this unit could be a very big help to me and I would appreciate it very much

I have just acquired an old HP 3440A nixie tube rack mount DC voltmeter. Although I have the service manual for the 3440A, the rack mounted version is physically different from the one in the manual
in a few ways. For one - there are no inputs on the front panel, just
on the rear. There are 2 different BNC type jacks that I have never
seen before. The ground is isolated from the chassis so there are
actually 2 internal connectors along with the usual outer ground connector. Both jacks have these 2 internal contacts but both jacks are different styles. I've tried to look these up (google images etc)
and have no idea what "type" they are so that I can get some kind of adaptor to use a BNC terminated probe or even banana terminated
test leads.
