Re: 8568B YTO unlocked
Tobias,
As G?ran said, 8568 and 8566 are different design. I have no knowledge of 8568 so I can only speak for 8566.
In 8566, if the frequency span is less than 5mhz, YTO is phase locked during the

I tried an external reference without luck. I guess it is time to dig into the problem.

Re: 3586B Selective Voltmeter Help trouble shooting
One thing to note, is when the keyboard springs fail,
the button feels dead, but can get stuck in a depressed

Re: 8566B PL1 Unlock, PL2 Unlock and Ref Unlock
Thanks, I'll try the external ref.
I have a 3586b sitting next to it and that has the 10Mhz Oven in it. Maybe I can just run that in?
I haven't checked the 3586B output and the input into

Re: 8566B PL1 Unlock, PL2 Unlock and Ref Unlock
First try the external reference again, to be sure whether the internal one is OK or not. In my experience, the (Ovenaire brand as I recall) OCXOs used in the 8566s have been quite unreliable (ovens

3586B Selective Voltmeter Help trouble shooting
I bought an HP3596B off EBay.
I have a service manual on order.
First thing I did was remove the leaky battery and thoroughly clean the PS board.

Re: 8568B YTO unlocked
Yes, I found it very impressive. The phase lock loop design(20/30, M/N and YTO loops combo) is shared by 8340/41, 8566, 8672 and possibly other sweepers and SAs too. Learned a lot by studying the

Re: 8568B YTO unlocked
Tobias,
Look at page 9-49 in the 8568 service manual (Vol. 4). The section is called "RF Section Analog Troubleshooting".
The problem you describe does not seem to me like it's YTO related. It

Re: 8568B YTO unlocked
Hi,
the HP8566 and HP8568 spectrum analyzers are two different designs. Both
are well described in
the HP Journals of that time. Quite impressive if you ask me...

Re: YIG pinout
Hi Dave
As far as I have learned, most HP YIGs are pretty similar.
Have a look at the picture here
