Re: Neon pilot lights 1450-0566
Thanks Greg, The Lumex one almost certainly could be made to fit in the 141T. I've managed to get the back off mine and fitted an NE-2, but if I ever need it I'll bear that one in mind. Dan

Re: Part Needed
An add-on board will not be needed. For a Minicircuits MAR-3+ type of MMIC amplifier, remove R2, short C3, move the old C3 to where R2 was, and install a 270 ohm resistor between +15.7 volts where R2

Re: How do you clean buttons on HP uWave gear?
Thanks, great to have a link. A feeler gauge will get you a few pieces though, so in the scheme of things it's still a cheap repair. If you know a machinist he will usually have some shim stock also.

Re: Part Needed
Thanks for the response. I'm a purist when it comes to using the original HP part, so I want to try find it if it still available. I was unable to cross-reference the 5088-7036 to any

Regrettably, I have never been able to successfully search the archives on the 'new' yahoogroups, tried it and found nothing. How hard is it to get into these switches, or does it depend completely on

Hi Dave! This has been discussed here in the past, so you might want to look in the archives. The simple answer is that they need cleaning. There¡¯s a thin metal strip in them that gets deflected

How do you clean buttons on HP uWave gear?
I'm FINALLY getting around to hauling the stuff out of boxes - 15 years of storage, ugh. I have an 8350A sweeper mainframe with 83595A 26.5GHz plug-in. When turned on, an error message E0004 briefly

No. But usually they will pull straight out the back in my experience and you can slip in an NE-2. Jeff
