Re: OT: LED lamp bulbs at ridiculously low prices at (some) Costco stores
Integrating spheres, even on ebay, go for silly money but there is a way......... I wanted to get the spectrum of an NVIS compatible illuminated switch and actually got pretty reasonable correlation

Re: OT: LED lamp bulbs at ridiculously low prices at (some) Costco stores
Hi Ed, ? I've actually made an integrating sphere. ?Actually, it's an integrating box, because I couldn't get a round shape quickly and easily, but I suppose I could have picked up an old globe at a

Re: Dead 7603
The 7603 uses a linear power supply, not a switcher. So no ticking. Craig

Re: OT: LED lamp bulbs at ridiculously low prices at (some) Costco stores
Dan, I think you can find the sensor pieces to make a reasonably-priced setup with good spectral matching, but the tricky part is the integration of the total bulb output, on a "hobby" budget.

Of course, this is one of those subjects, like religion, sex, drugs, rock-and-roll and politics that I hesitate to respond to here as there are some fanatics about incandescent light bulbs in our

Re: Novice question - 475, what mode is this?
Okay, but I did not think the posts about the Tek 475 had anything to do with Bob's computer, so I would have never guessed this.

Hi Jeff, Two separate members of this group requested one manual each.... I'm sure they can see this note as they also saw my original post. I am trying my best to pay the generosity I have received

Re: Dead 7603
You've got a dead 7603 with no lights. Definitely look at the low voltages first. Check the 0.15A (150mA) fuse, F855, just because its 'filament' is so delicate it can easily become disconnected from

Re: Dead 7603
Does it make a ticking sound - like 1/sec? You may need to put your ear close to the cover to hear it. If so, it's something in the PSU - rectifier board, LV board, inverter - likely a shorted

Re: Dead 7603
That diagnosis gives no information regarding the location of any HV fault. If the -3kV is not present, the fault could either be the HV transformer, something in the string of components associated

Re: Tek 465 no display
You probably meant .3 * 18, or 54 W? It's not entirely fair to think of 18 V in both cases since the voltage drop Vce will increase dramatically when the line is short circuited. In the 465 the

Re: Dead 7603
That model, if the graticule lights work you got juice to the Xfmr. Other lights are a different story. If you get absolutely nothing, turn it on and see if the blades of the power plug read infinity

Hi, my name is Jim and I'm a Tek-aholic. ("Hi, Jim.") Long time lurker (about a year and a half), first time poster. My latest Tek project is a completely dead 7603 that I bought on the 'Bay. I did

OT: LED lamp bulbs at ridiculously low prices at (some) Costco stores
This is OT, but I just have to say I happened to stop by the Fremont Costco today, and stumbled upon some amazing deals on certain types of LED bulbs, like six-packs of PAR-xx/xxW equivalent spots for

Re: Tek 465 no display
One thing that wasn't said on this thread ( unless I missed it) is that these scopes can be LETHAL !!! If you get "stung" by CRT high voltage (-1450) if it doesn't kill you, you'll be one hurtin

Re: Tek 465 no display
True, and I've made some of them. However, as I remember it, the voltage across the sense resistors should be the VBE drop of the trigger transistor. I'm also going on general theory without looking

Re: Novice question - 475, what mode is this?
Should help, but that jitter might be settings. If B sweep has an auto trigger, turn it off. Also switch it to DC coupling and turn off any low or high filters. Adjust the trigger level slowly and at
