Re: Type 106 Saga (Again)
I think one of the subsequent modifications that Tek put out, which was the replacement of Q247, a 2N3739, to a more robust 2N4240 transistor, helped control some of these 'A Supply' power aberrations

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
Hi Christophe, HO display most likely looks at the pot being in all the CW position but the display of HO doesn't necessarily mean B-ends-A is active or not. They are two loosely connected functions

Re: Help required finding a Tek 466 power rail short
Ok, 9 volts is good.? What do you mean "alters the voltage on pin 2"?? The voltages on pin 2 and pin 3 ought to be exact within a few microvolts.? I am willing to bet that the voltage on pin 1 is

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
Hi Ozan, Let let me see what I can access tomorrow when removing the screw with the proper 1/16" allen key. I've checked the hold-off pots at the analog level (on the MUX input) and the dc voltage

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
Hi Ozan, Too bad I did not see these pictures in advance, they surely make sense now and I shouldn't have tried to pull the knobs at the first place. No, unfortunately, I can't glue the broken know

Re: Help required finding a Tek 466 power rail short
------- +140V is not in current limit based on voltage across R1716. As others commented probably +65V is affecting it. Do you have another scope? If you look at "+" side of C1723 and C1722 you will

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
Hi Christophe, My comments are based on 2467B but I think 2465 is similar enough. You will see that A/B switch is a separate slide switch. There is a plastic arm that controls it. Assuming there is no

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
----- Hi Christophe, My preferred way is not to pull the small knobs at all. Take a look at the photo album: /g/TekScopes/album?id=259435 You can slide off the knobs from shafts, when

Ozan, thanks for this comment as well. Any recommendation for cleaning the timebase switch? Christophe

Re: Help required finding a Tek 466 power rail short
If pin 2 of U1724A is at close to 9V when the nominal +65V line is at 43V then something is amiss with the divider chain R1735, R1736, R1737, or possibly U1724 is defective. You probably need to lift

Re: TDS software
Hi Jared , thank you for your response . I have tried looking for any posts from anyone that has actually done it for a very early TDS744 . Mine seems to be late in the production or has been

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
Hi Siggi, I just re-run exer 01 and it seems that the digital code affected to the hold-off pot is stuck at 6FFF whatever position I make it. The two digits BB and CC nicely change as I turn the

Re: TDS software
It may be possible to use TDS744A firmware on the TDS744. I have a TDS744A processor board here in my stock of spare parts that looks identical to the pictures I can find online of the TDS744. If you

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
----- B-ends-A is also a switch at Row7/Col1, pot is not used for determining B-ends-A. I agree that switch also needs to be looked at. Ozan

Re: 7B80 : P-P AUTO Not Working Correctly
Barry, I have a 7B80 I am looking at while typing this post, if that will help you. If you have not already cleaned the switches and sockets for the active devices, do so. That may make a difference.

Re: Tek 2465 stuck in horizontal sweep
Hey Christophe, I believe that the only problem with the scope is that the front panel is not read correctly. Check the holdoff pot, I believe you'll find that it's set to B-ends-A, e.g. all the way
