Re: Replacing Electrolytics in a 465/465B
A possibly clean one-shot solution for replacing these pesky filter caps is on my mind. I was given a non operational Tek 465 just before i retired. The +55VDC rail is sitting at 41.6VDC, it is the

Hi, I have a 7L12 and a 7L14 and I made my self the same question. With two prescalers and two counters is possible to make a circuit and write in the readout system. Anyway I?m searching for a TR502
