Re: DC508A Display

Re: 7854 Repair & Restoration
I picked up a set of PX625 mercury cells that should work to replace the one bad battery that my 7S14 has. I'm definitely interested in changing out the cells for a more permanent fix in the future,

Re: DC508A Display
Thank you David & Philippe - I'll try swapping out the 7447, I've got plenty lying around. Unfortunately it is not socketed, and it's partially buried under the RF section. Philippe - that's a great

I miss having Deane's take on real world electronics. Well I miss Deane full stop. I shudder to think what he thought of ROHS - he (like me and I would think many others) used is mouth as a third hand

Re: 5440 low-voltage power supply
No readout either? I thought you just missed the trace. If no readout either, David is right of course and my grid bias adjustment won't help. Raymond
