Re: Calibrate the time base, or horizontal amplifier?
Harvey, One of the main calibration issues that requires "exotic" signals Is the frequency calibration of the amplifiers. Having these be off can nuke the bandwidth of the scope. 465B 3db down 75-80

Re: Calibrate the time base, or horizontal amplifier?
Not sure that they ever made one for the 5000 series, but an input standardizer would give you direct access to the frame, which would be fine if you had a known AC amplitude to calibrate the frame.

Re: Tek 531A overhaul
Nicolas, Yes, you will need to unsolder the leads of the parts. Only one end is necessary while bending the part up. That way you can easily tell where it goes back. The hardware to remove the cans
