Re: Wikipedia is not an appropriate topic for TekScopes. WAS repair tools: Autotransformers/variacs
Would be nice if more Tektronix related information was on Wikipedia. Thinking I can make a Tekwiki wiki on Wikipedia and maybe add on the Tektronix Wikipedia Wiki also. Looks like the following

Re: Tek 564 on DFW Craigslist for cost + shipping
I am interested in the scope. I have a Fedex account, so if you can drop it off at one of their locations I can take care of the shipping costs from my end. I have a specific use for the scope and it

Tek 564 on DFW Craigslist for cost + shipping
I don't need it, but I figure I'll rescue it later today as I'll be in that neighborhood. He wants $25. You can have it for that plus whatever actual shipping is to you. I'll box it up and weigh it as

Re: Tek 603 - question on transistor heatsinking material
Steve, I guess in all the years I have never seen a semiconductor mounted via a conductive pad when connection to the thermal surface is required or desired. Usually the device is directly mounted to

Re: Looking for 7D02 Personality Modules
Hi Chuck, I have written lots of my own monitor test routines to gather information on the ports, stack contents, set breakpoints, memory organization, etc. These are the clever tricks of the trade

Re: S-52 only works with lowered +15 V power supply
Hi Max, I think the extra 3.9 ohm helps a tiny bit (makes the snap-off current to the TD somewhat stronger) but in my opinion its not the problem. Since at 15.5 V I suspected a wrong state of Q86/Q88

Re: S-52 only works with lowered +15 V power supply
Some progress. Just now (in Italy it's 9.40 p.m.) I carefully measured the parallel R65/R68 with my Fluke 8040A, with a reading of 3.3 ohms. No good. I carefully soldered a 3.9 ohm resistor, the only
