Re: Tek 2236 scope repair
Did you check or replace Q944? It's possible for it to be damaged during output transistor failure. If Q944's B-C junction blows open, it's possible for Q939 to supply enough base drive through R944

Re: Yet another 465B restoration question
The 107437 is a Tektronix Guernsey numbering - unrelated the Bxxxxxx number from Beaverton - I imagine there's a correspondence but I doubt it was documented.
You best bet is to compare the board

Re: Tek 2236 scope repair
I replaced the transistors with a more matched pair (hFe for both transistors was 73 at a Vbe of 550 mV).
The circuit still does not start up reliably. There is another mode of oscillation at a few

Re: Tek575 Serial No: 100082 Guernsey Ltd HV Transformer ?
Just got the pictures from the seller, it is the old type/brown one.
So not sure where to go from here and if it even make sense to start restoring it or sell it for parts (again)..

Re: FS: Tek 453, and a few other items, near Madison, WI, USA
Local pickup would be ideal. I'm told there is more Tek stuff, but I haven't seen it yet. The owner now knows there's interest, so there's likely to be more info soon.

Re: Removal of Pull-tabs on older TM500 series plug-ins
I'd very carefully drill it out.? You might find that they glued the tab on the shaft.? I haven't tried to remove this kind of tab, but that's what I likely do.

Yes, it appears they glued this particular one. Even when I put my entire body weight on the pin, it wouldn't budge.
Any recommendations in this scenario?
