Hi,


What are blind panels? Where do you get them?

I published two photos from the those 3 silicon chips inside. One driver, two similar power amps. Will try to get bigger magnification, localize the failure...

Nice work reclaiming those ceramic strips. What a simple solution. I imagine that it would be best to clean the ceramic very well prior to gluing.

?Been flying back and forth to Florida twice a week trying to get my mother in-law placed in an assisted living facility ( Alzheimer's). I have a couple of consulting clients as well that I spend two days a week with here in MN ergo the need to fly back and forth .? I think I will likely be back in the office here in MN now for at least two weeks. To add insult to injury I appear to be having ISP problems as I am sporadically missing whole "blocks" of email. I got back yesterday and will start digging out today ..there seems to be about 700 emails to sort through so the volume is beyond anything I can reasonably sort through with a smart phone on road. :-P

Speaking of Artek, has anyone heard from Dave lately? His last post was on the 7th. I'm trying to spend my money with him and as yet I've not heard back.

I agree.?

For the next step, I would simply pull connectors P900/P901, then bridge the sense feedback with the respective supply, and measure the supply rails again. This requires only five connections and P900/P901 are in close proximity, so the connections are easy.? This is a linear power supply, not a switched mode supply, so operation with no load does not harm anything.

I would also pull P971/P962.

Doing so disconnects the power supply from its loads and allows isolation of the trouble to a specific circuit / board by re-connecting one board after one.?

Just keep going, David - one step at a time. We will bring this beauty back to life.

Cheers,

Magnus

If you have some bad strips, I have quite a lot of new ones and ones I have
salvaged with a solder sucker. You can find them in my Parts Shop.

Hi David,

As I'm still learning good technique for reworking ceramic terminal strips
I'm hyper-concerned about wrecking the scopes I work on. The one I'm
restoring now has been worked over quite a bit by a trouble-shooter who
lifted wires and components here, there, and everywhere chasing down
problems. My inclination is to, like with convetional terminals, wick out
the nasty old solder and make a new, shiny soldering job, the idea being to
restore the orignal beautiful work done by Tek. I'm finding that approach to
be ephemeral at best. So now I wick off only excess solder and then reflow
with a bit of the silver bearing stuff. I get mixed results, still too much
leaching of the silver plating in the strip notches. Someone said it's nigh
impossible to avoid that so I guess the terminals, bright an idea it was by
Tek, is really a one shot proposition.

Stan has Tek solder spools for sale on his website so now my solder hunt is
done.

I have a spool of the Radio Shack 62/36/2 that I bought years ago and
while it is thin, there is certainly enough to do a reasonable number
of connections if you do not overdo it. The thin size is because it
is intended for surface mount parts that use silver metalization.

The only real electronics store here in the St. Louis area
() has an old bin full of the Kester
62/36/2 solder tubes but their inventory management is not good enough
for them to be listed online. For the price, I think it was about the
same value as the Radio Shack silver solder. They are certainly less
expensive online even with shipping.

This seems reasonable although it is no clean flux instead of
activated rosin:

Roll-/380118400075?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item5880d27c4b>
&hash=item5880d27c4b

That 4% low temperature silver solder (not the lead free stuff) from
Parts Express would no doubt be better but sure is expensive. Better
to use the 2%, extra flux if necessary, and use a good lower
temperature soldering iron.

Well, gentlemen, you made me do it. I rose to the challenge and dropped
by the local RS. No 62/36/2 on its hook. The computer said they had

asked what the specs were. 0.015 dia., came the reply. Worthless! Too
small for soldering ceramic terminal strip notches. You'd put half a
spool into one notch if you cleaned it out and refilled it. $3.00 a tie
point is a bit too much. Not much better, the stuff I got from MCM,
Kester made 0.020 dia. for about half what RS sells theirs for but no
bargain because I had to pay shippijng. So the hunt goes on for 0.031

Confirmed. While Xmas shopping yesterday at the Sherman Oaks Mall in

Some of the new uv LEDs exhibit very little visible light and would be less likely to cause unwanted visible response (due to excitation wavelengths) on a camera. Of course, certain plastics used over a CRT face could also block this same uv.
I'm working with some 365 nm LEDs right now that could give one a "sun" tan! Of course, these newer-model ones are surface mount. I wonder if ceramic bars could be improvised for use as a heat-sinking mount?

That's what I was thinking; that they may have run the heaters off DC to prevent hum and it would be easier to supply 150mA heaters than 300mA in the tube era. Now it would be simple to use a three terminal regulator IC to provide 6.3 volts.

Don Black.

David,

More below:

Because I was unsure of where to take readings on the caps as they
appear to have four pins, I took scope ripple readings from P890
connector on the A10 rectifier board. I hope this was OK. With probe set
on X1 and AC setting, I measured a max ripple of about 0.5 Volts P/P on
P890-1/5/2/ P890-4 was quite flat, I couldn't hardly measure any ripple.

Your ripple measurements sound OK, so your filter caps are most-likely good. Just remember many of the supplies are not up to normal output voltages, so their output currents are lower than normal, and therefore, ripple on the filter caps will be lower than during normal operating conditions (good or bad caps). The outer pins are the - pins and the center-most pin is the + pin.

On pins 6 and 7 of the 130 volt section, I wasn't able to measure the
ripple on the 250uF cap because I couldn't get my scope's two channels
to be in sync.

I should have also said to use Chop mode. I think you must have been using Alt (alternate) mode. Also, I should have said that once the +50V supply is working, you can measure ripple on C806 via single-ended (referenced to ground) using one probe only, like the other caps. You'd want to be using a 10X probe, espescially if your using DC coupling.

I did manage to take some voltage readings from the 130
volt section though. Voltages on Q850, VR851, and Q852 were all minus
about 30volts instead of plus 50 volts.

That's probably OK, since the +50V supply is dead, and you're basically measuring the negative side of the bridge rectifier and cap (C806).

The proper fuse in this line has
been replaced at some time in the past with a different style in-line
type fuse holder and hooked up to the original fuse "prong type
holders", so it looks like there might have been a problem with this
section in the past. Do you think that these minus readings indicate
that the AC hasn't been rectified properly and that there might be a
problem with the diodes?

David.

Back to the +50V supply: It's a little risky, but I'd suggest to remove Q876, monitor the +50V output with your DVM, and power-up the scope. If you're lucky, the +50V supply will come up to normal. Q876 is the current sense differential amp. Its job is to cut back the output voltage if the current through R875 (1 ohm), and thus the +50V supply's output, gets too high. This could happen because of for example a shorted cap somewhere else in the scope. I'm thinking the "B" trasistor has a C-B short, but that's just a guess.

Maybe you want to get someone else's opinion before you do what's suggested above.

You could also remove and check both transistors in Q876 with a diode-check function on a DMM. The scope could remain off.

Also, it might would help if you could mark-up a hard copy of the schematic with all of your voltage readings so far, scan it in, and post it somewhere for us to see. I'd suggest to use a red pen (red for bad). Mainly just the +50V supply section is needed.
