Re: 7D15 internal trigger not working
Steve, Check the 151-0402-00 transistors. These are the same number as the 151-0367-00 3571TP. These are likely leaky. I had a triggering problem with mine and these transistors were bad from C to E.

TDS 684 Scope
Hi, I have several Tektronix scopes. My newest one is a TDS 684A, and I have posted about it before. I found it in a surplus place, and I had been wanting to pick it up for a long time. When I brought

Re: 7L5 dot frequency reset bug - any clues or a fix?
Dan, did you ever get round to trying your proposed fix of increasing the C841/R841 time constant? I can confirm that the 7934 mainframe also has the issue. See two photos

Re: Changing out GR874 connectors +Printact relays
Interesting comment. Which type of female Type N connector would you use on a type 106 where it¡¯s mounted/soldered directly on the high-rise board? I¡¯m looking at all the best options available.

Re: SC502 looking for a replacement of dual 6-pin FET in input stage DON'T TRY THIS
2N3958 Followup: Looking at the 2N3958 datasheet, I see that the 2N3957 and 2N3956 are better matched versions of the same dual JFET. I find a few of them, at increased prices on ebay, but none in

I checked, and the 2N3958 is in stock at Mouser for ~$13 each. There are lots of offers on ebay between $3 and $10 each, almost all from Asia, and better offers if you care to buy 3 or 5 at a time.

I see some comments about changing existing GR874's in Tek gear for BNCs with some loss of performance. I think a better and certainly easier mechanical change is to female type N connectors, which

Re: 7D15 internal trigger not working
The -5V power supply board can be removed from the main PCB, and then re-installed perpendicular to it, to allow access to components underneath. (There should be three spare sockets on the A8 board

I can't comment on the 7603 backplane...I don't have one handy. But I can recommend the Hakko FR-301 desoldering gun for delicate multipin component removal. Early 70's coin op mainboards have very

Ok better observations A sweep is actually spot on time wise B sweep in the positions 10uS to 0.2uS is showing it 10x wrong So 100nS is shown as 1uS In positions 0.1uS to 10nS it displays correct

This should be correct for your scope. P834/P835 affect the hold-off timing at fast sweep rates: approximately 1.2 us when set to "7800/7900", and 2.2 us when set to "other". The choice of delayed or
