Re: DIY: Repair of HP 8568B Step Attenuators - another question...
Vladan-
I got the cover off without trouble. By testing I note that when the middle (40 dB) switch is triggered, the output turns off completely. As far as I can determine, the plunger is actuated

Re: DIY: Repair of HP 8568B Step Attenuators
Jim,
You will have to pull out the front panel. There are a few flat-head screws along the front frame (top and bottom, maybe even sides - don't remember any more). Once you remove them, the front

Re: DIY: Repair of HP 8568B Step Attenuators - addendum
All-
When all else fails, read the manual! The 8568B service manual says to remove the front panel. That is easy and the attenuator is then right in front of you. I was trying to get at it from the

Re: HP 8970B firmware v2800+ wanted
Hi Christian,
There is very little information available about the firmware revisions for the 8970B. Certainly, if you have a standard unit (1600 MHz high end), you will not want any version of the

Re: DIY: Repair of HP 8568B Step Attenuators
All-
O.k., I have an 8568B with a bad attenuator (40dB and below are dead).
My big question is - how do you get access to the attenuator to take it apart and clean/repair? It seems to be really

Re: Oscilloscopes - analog but with digital capability?
I will admit that there is not a complete and free 2230 service manual
available online but ArtekManuals and others have scanned service
manuals available inexpensively. Maintenance is made easier

Re: Oscilloscopes - analog but with digital capability?
Back in the mid 80's I remember using the Tek 7D20 digitizer plug-in. It only had a 20MHz sampling rate with an over sampling bandwidth of 70MHz. It was OK for sampling in the audio range but not go

Re: Oscilloscopes - analog but with digital capability?
I've looked into the Tek 2230 before and found it's performance and ease of use is nowhere near the Fluke PM3390. It's also very hard to get detailed info of 2230. For Fluke PM3390, you can purchase a

Re: HP 8970B firmware v2800+ wanted
Hi Vlandan,
Thank you for your answer.
Do you think version 8005x is compatible with all 8970B's? (including mine: S/N 2721Axxxx)
Seems strange that this number is a five-digit where mine has a

Re: Oscilloscopes - analog but with digital capability?
Look at the Tek 468 scope. It had a digital backpack, capable of
about 10 Mhz bandwidth. The processor was (IIRC) and 8051 style, with
limited memory, etc.
The basic scope was a 465, a 100 Mhz
