Tek Type 130 L-C Meter - confirming the meter capacitor 'error'...?
I read Alan Hampel's article on restoration of the above. He asserts that "Surprisingly, electrolytics C99 (5?F) and C100 (25?F), factory originals, were installed backwards! Not surprisingly,

Hi, I read many of your posts on the 465m blowing HVPS fuse...I actually acquired a 465m looking almost brand new with the saga of the fuse blowing.. I just have one question, what is the voltage

Thanks for the advice. Re. the nick in the HV lead, I have not used dielectric grease before, does it set or would I need some particular variant for the voltages involved? Also, would a better

Jon, Just to prevent a possible misunderstanding: I wasn¡¯t talking about the ultor but the white two-part connector somewhere near the middle of the HV lead, where the (usually) red lead enters

Re: 7904 pre-260000 PSU crackling
Raymond the 21-24 KV CRT Ultor is polyethylene as is,the molded Alden connector. Indeed any nicks or splitting of the cable will cause arcs or corona to the nearby grounds og the ch?ssis , doghouse

Re: 7904 pre-260000 PSU crackling
I guess something to realize is that an air gap from the HV lead core to the outside of the insulation isn't enough to prevent arcing or even flash over; The dielectric strength of air is far less

Re: 7904 pre-260000 PSU crackling
Hello, I had a similar crackling and hissing problem with my 7904 years ago. It turned out to be the voltage multiplier U1615, internal arcing. The only visible indication of something being wrong was
