Re: 2235 display problem
Beamfinder is working properly. When pressed, the display compresses to a single position on the x-axis, but the amplitude remains. Here is a helpful hint...I pulled (disconnected) the upper and lower plate deflector wires from the CRT and turned the unit on again... without any vertical input connected, the CRT display was exactly the same as before...just a big rectangle-appearing image at all sweep speeds. This tells me that something is amiss in the CRT or associated electronics. Still scratching my head on this one.

Re: Tek 371 test fixture
Hi Bob??Thanks for your reply that you sent to me with pictures I would like to ask you if you could possibly let me know the gauge of the wires there and the possible length of the cord coming from the plug that goes to the Tracer to the test fixture. Once again thank you Neil

A few notes: The fixture pictured is missing the clear safety cover. There are three microswitches in the fixture; two in front that are actuated when the cover is closed, and one at the hinge that is actuated when the cover is open. There is a? 10nf cap connected as shown in the main housing. The resistor shown in the removable section is 1k. There is a schematic in the 371A service manual available at Tek.co, and on the Tek wiki. |

Yes, that may work with the application of some self-adhesive Velcro.

Capacitor sniffing
Old devices often have a characteristic smell, e.g., from the dust that is being cooked inside the device.
Some of this smell unfortunately stems from leaking capacitors. Is there a guide somewhere that allows mapping a specific smell to a specific kind of capacitor? I know we don¡¯t have smell-o-vision in the Internet, but it should still be possible to verbally describe smells. I¡¯m asking because I have an FG501A with some performance problems, as well as a characteristic smell. Soapy, perfumy, I¡¯d say. I don¡¯t ¡°see¡± which capacitors are leaking, so I would love to use the smell to point to potential culprits. (Of course, the performance problems could be unrelated to the smell, and the smell could also come from other components cooking themselves. In any case, it would also be nice to know how toxic that smell is¡) Gr¨¹?e, Carsten |

The only issue I have with Leo's product is that according to his pictures, it doesn't have a veryDepends on the response of the scope you are adjusting. 1GHz at 350ps rise is as far as I go without sampling plugins, so a couple of transient wobbles at ~15GHz at 3% p-p really doesn't matter. So has BNC version is just fine. Crau=ig |
