Re: FG502 with no working FREQUENCY control
Jeff,
Trimmer caps often have 3 pins for mechanical stability. Two pins are
usually connected to the stator blades. Sometimes you see them commoned on
the pcb traces, sometimes not.

Re: 2465. CR1110
It looks like you could substitute an MBR40H50CT or MBR40H60CT, if you can find them (higher peak and working reverse voltage specs, 50 V and 60 V respectively). I see the MBR40H50CT-E3 for sale on

Re: 2445 - Nothing on the CRT
Hi,
I wish I had found this post earlier, I have the same problem on a 2465 with A9-Q1981 getting extremely hot and no display. Disconnected pin 7 of U1830 and the -15v returned, was at 9v and no

Re: Tek 2445 High Voltage Board replacement
Hi,
Did you solve your no display problem?
I have the exact same problem with my 2465, in that removing the red wire pin 7 to U1830 Q1981 no longer gets extremely hot and the -15v returns.

Trying to find a current replacement for this, has any got a suggestion? Found reference to MBR40H45CT-E3/45 but this is no longer available.

Re: FG502 with no working FREQUENCY control
Mark,
Thanks for the support, I will probably need it.
I have taken some measurements of the front panel controls (AMPLITUDE and OFFSET pots) and the AMPLITUDE pot is all over the place, not linear

Re: Type 106 Saga (Again)
Unless I was distracted, I¡¯ve always followed the setups in the manual as far as measurements.
A TO-3 will barely even fit in there¡. Is that what you used? Maybe a TO-220, I don¡¯t know.

465/475 to 485 front cover swap
Hello,
I do have an original front cover for scope models 465/475 in perfect condition, and would like to swap it by one for model 485.
I can send pictures upon request.
Note: I am not interested

It's not just that control setting but its effect upon the three main power supplies that is what is so remarkable and is why I had emphasized following the set up in the manual for

Re: Type 106 Saga (Again)
David,
The TO-220 you mentioned are indeed more robust. But due to a significant difference in the form factor, I can only assume that mounting them correctly may not be that easy or pretty, but

Well¡. It seems I spoke too soon.
While checking the calibration, the unit started to fail again. But this time R233 and D233 are fine.

I think service manual hints to pushing the knob to see the set screws too.
I bought some 3D printed ones and their finish was too rough. I ended up not using them. I don't know if it is the same

I was able to remove the time base knob and there were two screws hidden by the moving plastic part mounted on springs: you need to gently push and then you can access the two screws. It

Yes, the four C numbers are the ones I meant. Being across such a low resistance, I would reject anything over 3,3 ohms which is 10% the resistance. Having high ESR could make the output
