Re: Capacitance standardizers
Hi Craig, The reason I am ignorant of the "inductance standardizer" is that I have never wanted to calibrate an S-30. I have just used them as they were and trusted that the 300 uH position on the

Re: Info on Tek 2235 , P6120, assorted questions...
Hello Joseph, I don't have anymore copies of the Tek First 40 Years book available for sale at this time. I find them around here in estate sales occasionally and put them on eBay when I get spares.

Tek 1956 employee handbook
Hi folks I found this on eBay - 1680904344 and it looked kind of fascinating for those on the list who are interested in Tek history and lore from the Golden Age! Currently at $4 with no bids yet.

Re: Tektronix 545B (V)
Yeah - that was my next line of advice. I'd run it the other way though; assume the cap is good, and then calculate the current from the ripple. The 6080's are good for 100mA per section - so does the

Re: Tektronix 545B (V)
Craig Sawyers [mailto:c.sawyers@...], answering Jose Gavila: <snip> I don't think that trouble in those resistors could account for a ripple. IIRC the purpose of the 82K is to prevent

Re: Tek History book
Thanks for the pointers, Dave! If I can find these, they ought to get me bouncing in my seat :-) Actually, there is something out there that's close to an engineering analysis, but it mostly covers

HELP! NEEDED ON 2246
I have a Tektronix 2246 100 MHz Oscilloscope powered this unit up and attempted to set the calibration. It indicates that it is trying to calibrate knob adjustment and to turn all knobs CW. I can't

Re: Tektronix 545B (V)
Hello! Thanks to both of you... but my message was from September, I think, and the oscilloscope was fixed back then ;-) It was a capacitor, as you suggest. Merry Christmas! JOSE

Re: Tektronix 545B (V)
Snips: I'm looking at the schematic of the 545A, and I suspect that the 545B has the same 350V supply. The (silicon) bridge rectifier feeds the 125uF reservoir capacitor through two ten-ohm 1W
