Re: Free to a good home
Robin,
This may sound gross but I have a near mint 7704A that I bought for less than the value of the 7T11 sampling timebase that came with it. Since it is the only one of my 7000 frames that splits

Re: Restoring a 468
IIRC the 468 ROM's came in three revisions, -00, -01 & -02, where
-00 and -01 were Mostek. The -02 had the same digital content as
the -01 but were CY7C264 EPROM's. The Mostek's are unreliable and

Re: Tektronix 2467B good buy?
Dear Menahem, Sergey, Harvey, Chuck and others,
thanks for your advice, I did end up buying it as a refurb seems within my ability. Fortunately I do have a desolder station and can replace the chip

Dave - my continued and grateful thanks for the hard work in scanning these unique documents. They are

Re: Unknown Tek Scope
This may need a special USB 'Y' power cable to get enough current to operate. I had to buy them for some external hard drives, and a DVD burner.

Based on requests we have scanned the 151- transistors and it is now on tekwiki.org. It is 762 pages.
We have been asked about OCRing the document. That would make it searchable but the experiments

Re: Cable lacing
Probably the same as the stuff used to tie old electric motor windings. I think it's just called "lacing cord" and there are a few different varieties. Some are heat shrinkable. I have a spool here

Restoring a 468
I'm tossing around the thought of restoring a 468. It has Mostek MK36694J-5 and MK36693J-5 ROMs. Are these something that in order to do a proper restore need to be replaced? I had originally planned

Re: Good loupes
I think they might be good. They have a clear part that is big like safety glasses, so maybe you can fit your prescription lenses
in a frame under them.

Re: Tektronix 2467B good buy?
9374L. I've been thinking of buying LC684DXL but it is not a very big
improvement for occasional use. I don't like DSOs and prefer my trusty
beloved 2467B unless I absolutely need some DSO-specific

Re: Good loupes
I think marking distance is the same as focal distance.
And I heartily agree with John. The old OptiVisor does not get near to a good pair of binocular loupes.

Re: Good loupes
Unless your glasses correct precisely, the loupes will be roughly
equivalent to your vision in three zones. One where your farsighted
eye can focus, one where your nearsighted eye can focus, and one

Re: Good loupes
My eyes have differing vision. One is nearsighted, the other is farsighted. Are those loupes usable under those circumstances?

Re: 465M goes dead and then magically comes back to life.

Re: Good loupes
Don't know. It focuses at about 8 inches in front of me. Wearing them takes getting used to, but it lets you work at a "normal" distance. I guess it's a YMMV situation, but I am quite pleased with my

What is the term marking distance? 420mm. Is that the distance from the front of the lenses they focus at?
