That TD252 is a relatively *fast* TD, Rise Time 320ps. The Valley Point Terminal Capacitance is typicaly 2.8pF, Max. 6pF. The Capacitance of the STD704 (152-125-00/01) is 18pF max, (Spec taken from "Tek Common Design Parts Catalog May 1988" unfortunately there are no data for their risetime, but i suspect it is about three times slower... because the risetime calculation for germanium td's is tr~ C/(2*Ip) (Formula taken from RCA Tunnel Diode Manual (TD-30), Page 36) So the trigger or other critical timings inside the circuit maybe will not work properly, at least at higher triggerrates... I coud help with one TD252, please mail me under dj0ud at web dot de Jorgen |

Hi Gregor
Thank you for your quick reply. I've also seen this Tunnel Diodes on ebayWell - what are you going to do? I think you'll find that the TD252 is unobtainium. Since buying Stan's 4.7mA tunnel diodes, which don't cost a king's ransom, is better than nothing why not just give it a try? I live in fear of my 1S2 developing a problem - that has 12 tunnel and back diodes in it, with lots of obscure currents, ranging from 1mA to 100mA and just about everything in between. Craig |

Thank you for your quick reply. I've also seen this Tunnel Diodes on ebay but these are NOT "TD252 (152-0214-00)" !! The ones that are sold on ebay are also used in the 1S1 (there are a lot of different tunnel diodes in there!) Does anybody know if you can substitute the TD252s with these "152-0125-00 " diodes, or where to find the original ones?

Re: 7S/7T Sampling System
Craig Sawyers
Have you considered a 7S14 instead of a 7T11/7S11/Sx. The 7S14 is oftenI don't think that necessarily helps - the full cal procedure for the test fixures calls for a 7S12; a pulse generator (S52) is used to supply a clean and fast pulse and the two sampling heads look at the + and - differential signals coming out. The ampifier compensation is then tweaked to minimise aberrations. I guess that a 7S14 could be used with a seperate 100ps pulser, but that would only do for the -00 suffix fixture. The -01 procedure calls for S2's with 4.6GHz bandwidth. I don't have the procedure for the -02. Craig |

There does seem to be some good parts though. If anyone buys it can you let us know if the CRT survived, the shield is battered so it's unlikely but maybe...? Don Black. Darrin Conniff wrote: Hello all (sniffle). |

7934
Craig Sawyers
Just spotted 3801330192 on eBay. This seems to be the fairly rare 7934
storage scope, but it comes with a 7T11/7S11/S4 sampling combo (and 7B80/7A18). I have no idea whether the sampler works. They guy shows a fairly low contrast trace, but there is no information about what mode he had used to record it - I suspect one of the bistable modes, but the seller ought to be asked. Anyway, he wants $400 on buy-it-now and a $275 starting bid. Craig |

I need a function generator.
Phil Townsend
Newbie to your list...Hi all.
Im new the the audio amp building hobby. Ive built 4 or 5 small tube amps. They all worked well. More or less. So I bought a cheep T922 scope. Im learning to use it. (sorta of) But I think I need a function generator... I paid 50 bucks for the scope. What should I buy ...ideas etc. Thank you in advance.

Re: 7S/7T Sampling System

Hi Dan,

Which 067-0587 are you talking about? the -02 is a 1GHz unit but the -01 is slower (500 Mhz I think). I think the -00 is slower still. I ask becaue that will determine how fast the sampling heads need to be. A 7T11A is much rarer and more expensive than a 7T11. Unless you need the 7T11A version (which is what a 7854 scope needs) there is nothing wrong with the 7T11. You will need a sampling head to go in the 7S11 such as an S1/S2/S3/S3A/S4. Note the S1, S3, and S3A only go to 1GHz. Have you considered a 7S14 instead of a 7T11/7S11/Sx. The 7S14 is often overlooked because it is one of the original 7000 plugins. The 7S14 is a 1 GHz Dual Trace Sampling plugin with the sampling heads and a delayed timebase all built in to a very easy to use self contained unit. It is quite nice. They can be had cheaply. It occupies two slots. So on a 4 slot mainframe you can still use a real time amplifier and timebase at the same time. Dennis -----Original Message-----

Another horror story
Denis Cobley
Had a job about 10 years ago which was much worse.
We were sent a 492 & TM5006 mainframe full of plug-in's. It have been in a service car - a station wagon (estate in the UK) and the Tech had run into a tree. The 2 items had become missiles and punched through the tech. The units were full of bits of meat and congealed blood but the company wanted to recover the instruments. I had the most unpleasant job of stripping and cleaning every part of the units and getting them operational. The smell was not good - not something you wanted to be doing just after lunch. Both instruments are back in service and looking for their next victim. There is a lesson here for those who do not secure heavy equipment in cars or vans. I also had one just like the other one - tailgate flew open around a corner and the scope made a break for it! Had a unit sent back to Tek in Beaverton once - run over by a 747 front wheel - ended up about 1" thick - Tek said it was my problem as once it left them I carried the risk. Of course the carrier said it was also not their problem either so we had to carry the can on that one with the customer. Strange things happen in this world. Regards Denis Cobley |
