Re: Advice on how to use an SA for test point troubleshooting
Tony In years past I made probes from two resistors and a length of coax. The probe was made of a series 5100 ohm resistor that connected to the center of the coax cable. A 51 ohm resistor was placed

Re: HP 212A pulse generator - asbestos inside!
Asbestos can be removed quite safely if you soak it with water before disturbing it. It will become a soft gooey mess which can be bagged and disposed of in an approved disposal facility.
