Re: Tube test adaptor for Tektroinx 575 was: Re: [TekScopes] FS: miscellaneous Tektronix manuals
Yep, a colleague several decades ago told me if you ever work with audio tubes, try D.C. for the heater instead of A.C., you'll like it.? I never forgot that, although I have not worked with tubes

3L10 similarity to 1L10
How electrically similar is the 3L10 to the 1L10? Components are numbered similarly. But clearly the circuits are different, at least at the output, since 560-series plug-ins must directly drive the

Re: 7T11 horizontal memory
Aha! Your news is indeed good :-) I put the 7T11 in to a slot next to my 7S11 and I now have a horizontal sweep in the rea ltime ranges. It was U512 when I killed it, but I swapped it with U572 to

Re: 7T11 horizontal memory
