CHECK OUT THE WIKI The purpose of the wiki is mainly to allow you to find information on instruments, either from either
- The model number
- The function(s) listed below. Some instruments have multiple functions - for example, the 4195A is a VNA, spectrum analyzer and an impedance analyzer. Therefore the 4195A is listed in multiple categories

Re: HP 8568B Instr Check Light?
Also check for loosy rear cable bus connector. In my unit there is some play in the centronics connector and that not let boot the instrument.

Re: HP 8643A and Capacitors
You might try resoldering the power connectors on the IO board, filter board and main supply board. Otherwise, bad cable, crimp?
You might find that it fixes itself when you put it all back together.

Re: HP 8643A and Capacitors
My 8643A started doing a "recalibrate" every time I turned it on. Once the 8643A completes that "recalibrate" its RF output and frequency are OK, although I have not tested every aspect of modulation,
