Re: HP-608A Repair
I think the oscillator is okay but I will take another look. If it's weak I'd expect no output on some frequencies, which isn't happening.

Re: HP Oldies.
Wow. I didn't know HP bought Boonton. I always liked Boonton
instruments, probably because I was born in Boonton. When did HP buy them?

HP Oldies.
I am looking for a couple of HP oldies. The 260A Q meter and the 250A RX meter. I can't find any on eBay. These two instruments were carried over from Boonton when HP bought them

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
