Re: 2465 blower
Don't forget that PC fans are good and bad. If you want something good buy Noctua, or, in a pinch, BeQuiet. <durechenew@...> wrote:

That's done to improve focus tracking (making focus less dependent on beam current i.e. screen brightness). Raymond

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
The links are fine. I just wouldn't add the quotes because they are of no help, at least not to me, neither in Firefox nor in Chrome. Either highlight the whole url, including the trailing digits, and

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Hi Dave, Spoiler alert! Don't look any further if you want to think about it a bit more, but here's the giveaway: Brown and red stripes for the wire connected to pin 12 of the CRT, etc. Strictly

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Uploaded a couple of new pictures, though I see that the one Raymond uploaded does also show VR1434/C1434. Just didn't realize yesterday those were the pin 12 drivers. This one shows the same diagram

Re: 2465 blower
Thank you, Raymond and Siggi, for taking the time to answer to this post. Unfortunately the motor of the blower is beyond repair (back side bushing is completely broken), therefore the whole stuff

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Just to clarify, because it seems I might have mislead Stephen to think I was suggesting something needed to be done: I was mystified as to how the "mesh" was being driven at all because I missed that

Raymond, Yes, I read that. But I thought maybe it could eventually be modified. Which I was not gonna even try to do, even if it was possible. I¡¯ll just try to make it work the way it is. After all,

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Not sure if you were joking. I was dead serious and Tek assumed people working on the 'scope weren't color blind. Have a look at the colors on the other wires going to the CRT. Raymond

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
You can't do without any voltage on pin 12. See Satbeginner's message. A bias voltage of about 150V is needed or all electrons will just land on the grid and die/charge it. IOW: If the image is fine

Time to give away another secret: The wire actually is white, with a brown and a red stripe. Guess why? Raymond

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
And the wire is the red striped one in Stephens picture that runs in front of the R1431 resistor over to the bundle, and then up to the CRT. I see now what they did, and I was distracted by the
