Re: Batteries in 7S14 plug-in
I wouldn't consider zinc-air batteries a good choice for this purpose. Zinc-air batteries have a relatively long shelf life unopened but once opened (activated), they discharge rather quickly, even

Re: Tek 465B woes
Hi Kevin,
Raymond is absolutely correct, I did use the wrong schematic. The cap I suspect is bad is C-4439.
And I agree with his comment about what to try.
If you really can't find a cap easily, let

Batteries in 7S14 plug-in
I wish I could direct this question to the engineer who designed the

Mercury batteries in the sampling gate back-bias (BT1 and

Re: 7623A PI stuck
Connect a BNC Tee to the lowest, most central connector. 2 fingers around

Re: Tek 465B woes
Hi Kevin,
1. I think that Tom made a mistake here. C1512 is the correct ref. for a 465. In a 465B, it's C4439.
In my 465B manual, it's at the top of the Power Supply schematics (page 12), right

Re: Tek 465B woes
I don't have the scope in front of me at the moment. This image has a

Re: Tek 465B woes
What's the serial # of your scope?
Easiest way is to remove one leg from the circuit and make a direct measurement of it, both capacitance if your DMM does it, and also ohm it out. An ESR meter

Thanks Tom and Raymond for the advice. Two questions from a novice

I would leave the +55 V alone for the moment. A small deviation is unimportant and any adjustment might necessitate a recalibration of the 'scope.

AM503B battery dead - calibration lost?
Hi everyone.
My AM503B shows error 355 for some days now - NVRAM error.
Checked the battery and it is dead (shouldn't it show "LO" before that?).
Does this mean the calibration is

If all else fails, I've managed to remove a stuck plug-in by upending the scope and removing the bottom panel. It's then possible to dismantle some of the runner assembly and with some gentle bending

That is a really good idea. Let's pray that this one lasts until

There is an adjustment, R1538, that sets the +55 level. If you
