Yes, I have a scale that goes to 5kg and a squirt bottle of diluted wood glue for putting laser printed labels on packages. Lots of things can go in flat rate USPS envelopes stuffed to resemble a

Re: OT: Old ICs for sale
A bidding war hasn't happened to any of my listings for years, but yeah, it's so much fun to watch!? These days, it's usually only rare items that end up in bidding wars, but certain categories see

Re: OT: Old ICs for sale

Awesome attention to detail, Toby! You rock! Thanks for the link, as I was able to download it to my iPad for safe keeping. I hope this helps William, too! Phil, N6OMM

Re: OT: Old ICs for sale
That I agree with.? ?Not dumping into landfill "adds value".? Hey, I saved an RM504 from a list member here and finally found a home for it, so I understand that point! Dan

Re: OT: Old ICs for sale
Selling items is better than watching TV, and if they get used, it's better than dumping them in landfill (or at least putting that off for a while longer). -Dave To: [email protected] Sent: Monday,

Re: Help needed with no trace no beamfinder on 465 (not b)
After Keith's report that he had already exchanged Q1418, I had a look into a 465 in my possession. As it turns out, possibly Q1418 can be removed without removing the vertical board, maybe sideways

Re: let's bring this back to life Re: Tektronix 453 high voltage problem
I'm so glad to hear about your rescue, William! I also obtained a 453 rescued from a potentially terrible fate. Phil's 453 manual has been digitised here:

Re: Help needed with no trace no beamfinder on 465 (not b)
Thanks Phil! At least I found how I blew F1419... when I remounted Q1418 its collecter screw lug was bent at an angle such that it contacted the case...

Re: OT: Old ICs for sale

Re: let's bring this back to life Re: Tektronix 453 high voltage problem
I have a late serial number 453, that seems to have a combination of boards, seemingly like yours. To your advantage, I submitted my manual for scanning, so you might want to get ahold of Toby, a

Hi Keith, I¡¯ve chased my tail like this so many times, my back as permanently twisted. I have to sleep on my side, now! Next week will bring some clarity, and perspective, I¡¯m sure... see you

Re: let's bring this back to life Re: Tektronix 453 high voltage problem
Are you sure this is not the typical leaky HV transformer winding problem that seems to affect practically all the 453 series scopes and other similar models simply due to the transformer HV winding

Well... you know how sometimes you feel like you just maybe shouldn't have gotten up this morning? I'm having one of those days... I evidently wired the substitute 2N3055 wrong and blew my the line

Ok, more info. I have no repair history, I got it for scrap price from an e-waste guy who used to sell at a,small flea market. It had a nice manual with it, but for a very different scope. I have

Hmmm... Isn't Q1418 connected to P1400? If so, it's easy to replace _physically_... photo: /g/TekScopes/photo/49286/10?p=Name,,,20,1,0,0 As stated previously, I have a 464 that also
