I think i might have mentioned before on this list, an item that works well for a screen filter is lighting gel material. You can pick the color....use one that is close to the color of the trace. A musical intrument repair shop should possibly have some. The only to be careful of is not too get one that is too opaque. Then you would have to turn up intensity farther than needed to view the trace. I have used gel material on several scopes now and works well. It isnt just for looks either...the reason it is there is to provide a higher contrast trace. vs seeing a white background.
Maybe someone else might know of where you could get a cover.

Subject: [TekScopes] 475A filter, protective cap availability?
Date: Wed, 3 Mar 2004 08:21:34 -0500
Got a nice working 475A, would like to replace the original blue/green CRT
filter with a nice sharp new one. Ar they commonly available?
Also need the protective cap that fits over the face of the scope - what
do these go for, and are there any better sources for them?
Thanks
