Re: 514 AC Socket
The cable female connector was made by several manufacturers, most I have seen were General Electric. I have never seen one with a grounding contact. You can also search for an older extension cord

Re: 514 AC Socket
Here in the UK (where NEMA connectors of any type aren't really used at all) I've seen Tek scopes that have been retroftted with EP4 power inlets. Coming from a broadcasting background I have plenty

Does anyone know of a source for the cable-end receptacle that mates with the plug shown in this photo https://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/514#/media/File:Tek514-lineSocket.jpg The inside is metal, and I

Re: Grid Bias Adjustment on 475A
Happy New Year to all! Resolve the condition and function of R1375 before you move on. What you describe above sounds suspicious to me. After that, there are some other component to check as well.

Larry, I think this approach makes sense. It will not be the ¡°cheap¡± way to make this happen, but it will likely produce the best results. As I had already stated, I would be up to helping out

Wow Jim, I am in Italy, if you give me your bank details and the amount I have to pay for the crystal and the shipping costs, I will make you an international bank transfer. Thanks -- Cheers Attilio

Hi Jared, Very nice implementation of this Power Supply Tester. Hat off. By the way around April this year a nice 067-1201-99 was sold for USD 148.95 (BIN and eBay) and its TM5000 counterpart

Re: Grid Bias Adjustment on 475A
Happy new year guys! C 1374 is a possible culprit. You can always replace it and give it a try. If not, you could solder a couple of leads to the viper and the 50 volt ends of the pot and bring them

Re: Grid Bias Adjustment on 475A
R1375 is deep under the HV shield, but that's hardly my issue (I've been operating the scope without an HV shield for weeks). The real problem is that the grid bias pot is snuggled up close to what I

Ok, heads up, time to go re-download the files if you already downloaded them. I found one transistor backwards (So test 1 wasn't working right), this has been rectified and the unit is now 100%

Thank you for the project. But, I don't get it? I know there is a TekWiki page for this thing... but, was this ever produced and sold by Tektronix? (It seems like something they might have used in
