Re: Cleaning nickel-plated adapters and input connectors? Magic formula?
Hi to the Dutch and maybe other European Tekkies, In the Netherlands you can buy Staalfix (Mr Muscle, a Johnson Product). Near perfect results (is is some cleaning liquid in combination with a ultra

TM500/5000 Extender Cable Wire Gauges
Hi to All, It is all in the 067-0645-02 Extender Cable Document which can be found on the Ebaman site. 17/20 AWG and 28/34 AWG are the Wire Gauges. In case you don't want to subscribe I can send you

Re: Manual or schematic available for the High Amplitude PulseGenerator?
a I pulled up this picture, and thought "Wow - that looks like mine", then I looked at the front panel sticker and thought "Wow - it IS mine". Then I looked at the album from which the image came, and

Re: Manual or schematic available for the High Amplitude PulseGenerator?
Actually it says 100V now. The front panel was re-designed. Also includes a VARIABLE PRETRIGGER lead time now.

Re: Tektronix 2465 capacitors etc. - Going deeper!
Looking through the schematics, it seems there's not much the 87v supply runs - mostly listed to capacitors/resistors here and there, but I found that it also supplies and runs the infamous U800. Now

Re: Tektronix 2465 capacitors etc. - Going deeper!
Ok, I think it's time to dig deeper! Thank you Tom for your suggestions. Since I wasn't having any luck with the board, I replaced all of the 2N5551 transistors for the 87 volt supply. The old ones

Re: Cleaning corrosion from Leaking Batteries
Check ingredients of that product. I believe it contains several percent of hydrofluoric acid, which is usually used to etch glass, and at that percentagy could ruin your day. Miroslav Pokorni

Re: Cleaning corrosion from Leaking Batteries
I have a needle dispenser bottle of vinegar on the bench (as well as alcohol and water). I use the vinegar to neutralize the hydroxide used in the NiCad battery. I use cotton swabs to mop up the

Re: Cleaning corrosion from Leaking Batteries
NiCd batteries use NaOH, sodium hydroxide. A very strong base. Tom

Re: Cleaning corrosion from Leaking Batteries
IIRC NiCd uses a NaOH (sodium hydroxide) electrolyte which is definitely basic.

Re: Cleaning corrosion from Leaking Batteries
Opps I forgot to mention that NiCd discharges should be acid (vs. alkaline batteries that will discharge basic) .. Therefore I would 'think' that CLR would not be your first choice (it might be for

Dennis, Being a Chem-E doesn't really equip me any better on addressing home remedies than any others we are about to hear from. I have learned over the years that empirical data and observation

Re: Oh No, I need the T912 CRT pin out?
Thanks. In my small panic I did not think of the ohm meter, I have the cable that should bring me to +/- 1 pin and I can see the ohm meter should allow me do figure the rest Thanks John _____ From:

Re: Cleaning corrosion from Leaking Batteries
That should not mater because after you use the CLR, you should follow up with a good wash with a mild soap (dawn) and hot water. Then rinse with distilled water or 91 % alcohol. Blow it off then a

Re: Oh No, I need the T912 CRT pin out?
You should be able to see where the filament leads are. On most Tek CRT tubes that would be pin 1 and 14. Confirm with the cathode to pin 2 and the 1st grid to pin 3. Please verify this by looking at

Cleaning corrosion from Leaking Batteries
I'm looking for a solution to cleaning up and restoring to usable condition printed circuit boards and their electronic components that were subjected to the electrolyte from a leaking NiCd battery.

Oh No, I need the T912 CRT pin out?
I have a T912 that had heavy use and was not working that I was given. I fixed a number of transistors and got a trace working but still had some intermittent problems. For practice, I decided to give

Re: Manual or schematic available for the High Amplitude PulseGenerator?
Interesting. Does it say "WARNING 80V on Center Conductor" above the SMA like it does on the GR874 ones? Does it look like there was a larger hole for a GR874 where the SMA is? Dennis
