Re: NVRAM back-up battery change on a 2715..... avoiding disasters
Dears, I got a 2715 with battery down. Do you have an idea where I can recover the elusive "271X Flatness Tests" software? Are you so kindly to send me it? Thank you very much in advance for any help

Re: 7704A PS - Rapid Tick Mode
Thanks, Tom. This scope has had a bad case of that curse. One tantalum went up in flames and two more smoked pretty significantly. This one just shorted with no glorious demise. There are still

Re: 7704A PS - Rapid Tick Mode
Barry, A few things that could cause the fast ticking are: one/both transistors from the 0067 IC to the driver transformer bad, the 9V zener to the 0067 open, the two 1mfd filters from the small

Re: 7704A PS - Rapid Tick Mode
When there is an overload, the PS shuts down and tries again a bit later. Each tick is the sound made by the magnetics as current starts to flow then shuts off. No master oscillator drives the tick

Re: Tek 453 display
There are dozens of Dremel tool accessories, and other manufacturers have made accessories which can be used with a Dremel tool. I own 25 grinding accessories for my Dremel tool, mostly aluminum oxide

Re: Tek 453 display
I may.... or others may... have to remove the HV assembly... and hopefully put it back. If you get a chance... If it came out... why wouldn't it go back? How did you 'grind" the 'posts' ... with a

Re: 7L13 full-screen amplitude troubleshooting
Forgot to mention that the output of the 1st mixer seems reasonable as far as I can tell. I saw three frequencies at the output of the first mixer: - -43 dBm @ 2.14178 GHz - -40.8 dBm @ 2.1579
