Re: Tek 585A - for your entertainment!
Connecting the ground of the oscilloscope to the power line is not a good idea.? There are other ways to measure line voltage.? You can use an isolation transformer on the line, although that might

Re: SG504 fault
Hi Kerry, A digital scope will have severe aliasing when you hit any frequency from the SG504 that is a subharmonic of the DSO's sampling frequency. That would account for severe noise and a drop in

Re: SG504 fault
