Recapping Tektronix 2465
I should do the recapping of my Tektronix 2465 (not A / B), I found on this group the list produced by Menahem Yachad of CondorAudio but from Mouser (Italy) there are some parts not available. Since I

Re: 3T77 tunnel diodes (again)
OK, had a chance to play with it. In a word, performance is improved but still not perfect. After reconnecting the 300 ohm fixed resistor and readjusting R44 (the bias for this TD), I can now get a

Re: 485 super weak brightness control
I can't access B sweep without taking the case off so I don't know the exact shape but it should look similar to A sweep. A sweep maxes out at 10ns/div, B sweep can go 2ns/div (then there is a 2x

Re: 485 super weak brightness control
These look fine. Logic selects B sweep is selected in 5/2/1n mode. I was hoping this would be it but no smoking gun yet. Ozan

How to explain how negative feedback lowers noise?
Hi all, I'm trying to explain to people at my company (none of whom are EEs or statisticians) how negative feedback works in a system. That's one thing that I'm trying to get across, and I can't come

Re: 3T77 tunnel diodes (again)
Back to 3T77A tunnel diodes :) It took six full weeks (Feb. 11 order, until today Mar. 22), between the Russian and the US postal services, but I finally got a "Pellet" 1I308J (20 ma Ge TD). It

Re: 485 super weak brightness control
One more question, the A sweep is triangular but the B sweep has a flat top and becoming almost square, that doesn't look right? wrote:

Re: Tek 2225 that wont power up after a knock :-(
OK I replaced Q913 and Q923 and I'm using an external supply of 45V I have isolated W984, W987, W989, W972, and W991 W972 reads 35V W984 reads 95V W987 reads 8.5V W989 reads -8.5 but W991 is showing

Re: FG502 doesn't start at some specific settings
If it works like the FG 502 (making an assumption) that is the heart of the unit everything is derived from the triangle wave. If there is any setting where the triangle wave is not running that is

Re: Type 106
I would definitely keep the original GR connectors, and if you need to, use an SMA adapter. They're made by GR too and it doesn't have any effect that I can see on my ~ 650 ps (so far) avalanche

Re: Type 106
Yea that is why I only changed the normal connector as it only has a wire to it. I did not mess with the fast rise and fall either. Eric

Re: Type 106
For those who haven¡¯t seen this, this is how the GR874 connectors are mounted directly on the Fast Rise and Fast Fall outputs of the Type 106. I definitely DO NOT want to mess with that!

Re: Type 106
Ken, I think you are right. This is definitely an early production unit. Although to me, it looks like it might be a transition unit. The reason being that it does have the screw on the front panel to

Re: 485 super weak brightness control
I can see I haven't read your question correctly. I can see -3.6 when 521 is selected, -3. 7 when B is selected and -5.3 when there is A selected and outside of the 521 range wrote:

Re: Fast probe prices?
Yes it should be good enough at those speeds, after all the 1S1 itself is built with leaded components. The ground connection is as responsible as anything to keep inductance down. Unfortunately I

Re: Type 106
From what I have seen of Tek equipment you have an early production unit. The later case allowed for the four scope calibration units the 106, 191, 184 and 067-0502 to be stacked on top of each other
