WooHoo! 465B


 

I just picked up a 465B off Craigslist. Came with 10x probe.

the ad:
"Unit was working, then stored for 3 or 4 years. When I turned it on recently, it died. There's a beam, but no sweep. It worked well before that. I was hoping someone would want to fix it and put it to good use. Free."


Nice guy...engineer...just did not want to deal with it.
He mentioned electrical burning smell when turning on.

I got it home and spent 10 minutes with it...opened it up and turned it on. Burning smell coming from PS section I think. Whole screen glows off and on, no trace to speak of.
It is in excellent shape otherwise, calibration stickers all over it.

I am thinking PS filter caps to start, then tantalum and electrolytic search after that.
