Re: HP34702A Ohms converter issues
That's suspicious, and if A and B volts of Q15 are different, the feedback is not working. (have not looked at rest of schematic though). Does the manual say what I ref should be, and is it? (can

Re: HP34702A Ohms converter issues
They're all pushbutton switches, and I have (at least twice) cleaned the contacts with Deoxit.? It helped with some flaky behavior on the voltage ranges but did nothing for Ohms.? The upper 4 ohms

Re: HP34702A Ohms converter issues
Have you tried checking the volts at output of U3 and the pots R59 R64 and the rotary switch contact next to R59? Was it dirty at all? If so, is there conductive dirt on rotary switch? Are R53 R52

Re: HP8714ET Impedance
Yes 75 ohm N connectors are dimensioned differently than 50 ohm connectors. The difference is the center pin diameter. NEVER try and mate a 50 ohm to a 75 ohm as the 50 ohm pin is larger than the 75

Re: HP34702A Ohms converter issues
Hello Greg, it's nice to see you back with a new problem ;-D Just a quick check, just to make sure the problem is not being caused by some leakage in the mainframe (the 34740): When switched to DC

Re: Help to fix power supply (A80) of an old HP 3586A
Hi Paul, thank you.? It's not clear what you do... what transistors do you mean? A80 board, which is the most part affected? by the NiCd leakage, has only one transistor and three opamps. If for

HP34702A Ohms converter issues
As promised, the followup to my HP3490A repair.? I found this 34702A/34740A at a hamfest for $12 and thought it deserved a home.? Upon hooking it up, the DCV and ACV seemed to measure pretty

Been watching the thread and no time to respond till now. Those evil overcharged nicads. Darn thing is they have sent me some great deals on "dead" 3586s. So you are getting good advice from the

N 75/50 ohm pads
Does anyone have a couple of 75/50 ohm N pads gathering dust? I picked up a semi-antique 8754a with a 8502b test set and I'm unearthing various bits of RF gear (SA, 8640b etc) I've accumulated for a

Re: Help to fix power supply (A80) of an old HP 3586A
The thing that scares me about this now is that trimpot.? I have doubts that it has survived.? Might be good to replace that DIP socket on general principal too.? The other components are likely

Re: HP-IB not working on 85680B and unknown option again
Yes, Orin, you are correct. After taking a second (and third)? look, I see that I misread the 'B' for an '8'. Maybe I need some better glases...

Re: Help to fix power supply (A80) of an old HP 3586A
OK, thank you. You all are right, I obviously exaggerated with the vinegar. I washed a second time as Ed recommends and now it is improved a little bit. What is remained is the tarnish on the weldings

FWIW, the option sticker reads '85680B'. The RF sections of 8568Bs were all marked this way as far as I know.

You could write it, but you'd have to do that. That's what you want. what:string says that the first argument we call it what here, is a string. It could also be 'this is a string', for constant
