Hi Peter,
I have fixed quite a few 455's with intermittants and the 465M is very similar
in construction. I have found both of the mother board connectors that the
vertical and horizontal modules plug into to be intermittant. I would remove
both modules, clean the board contact area with something like alcohol, and then
apply a light coating of De-Oxit on the board contact area.

This one has bothered me for a while. Sometimes the height will be about 50%
of normal on either channel. Very intermittent. If I put the unit in chop
and run the other channels position to very high or low on the screen, the
offending channel will 'pop' back to correct size. At one point I could tap
around the funny heatsinked hybrid in the vertical section and get it to
fail. Removed IC and cleaned the contacts with Qtip and Deoxit and it worked
for a while but then came back. Has classic symptoms of bad connection but I
can't seem to get it to fail often enough yet. Any shortcuts?
Note this scope appears to be quite different from 465 regular-flavor (at
least vert section).
Thanks
Peter Florance
