Re: Tek probe question: Comparator 015-0310-01 & Pulse Head 015-0311-01 for CG 551 AP
Look up CG551AP on Tekwiki, 'programmable calibration generator'. It refers to the two heads and has a link to a manual, less schematics. Roger

Tek probe question: Comparator 015-0310-01 & Pulse Head 015-0311-01 for CG 551 AP
Not certain what these probes are: Tektronix Comparator 015-0310-01 & Pulse Head 015-0311-01 for CG 551 AP ? Have not yet located .pdf's yet. Came in a box with other purchased items. What is the CG

Re: TM504 and plugins
Hi Stan, Always allow a safety margin. I would specify 50V caps in this case as long as there is room. There are many reasons why you need to error on the side of caution. Several of the most

Re: 561A and 3A1 Vertical
More unambiguous: the blocking oscillator frequency was 200 kHz, giving 5 us slots for each channel. The multivibrator repetition frequency was 100 kHz.

Re: 561A and 3A1 Vertical
I tried a BC557B for Q260 (checked for Vceo >> 40 V). Does the job, both in ALT mode and in CHOP mode. The chop frequency was 100 kHz now as I could see when I set the 3B3 for 5 us/div and triggered

Re: TM504 and plugins
Thanks for the topic, I have a 7CT1N that's not working right! I have not got to dug into it yet to find the problem. After reading this, I checked those cap and resistors. Two 100uf 25V caps! Need to

Re: 561A and 3A1 Vertical
In ALT mode both base and emitter of Q260 are tied to -12.2 V through resistors. For Q 260 to enter in conduction it is required a voltage swing (on emitter) of 0.2/0.3 V (germanium) minimum. Using a

Re: 561A and 3A1 Vertical
(BTW you mean the sync signal, not the blanking signal.) In the 2B67 the Sync levels at pin 4 are +110 V and +125 V. Suppose you used a 2B67 in the left slot and a 3B1 in the right slot while pins 4

OK, an H-K short would not do what you have, pins 1, 2, 3 and 4 are at nearly the same potential so that isn't likely to be it. The next grid is at a quite different potential but with the CRT

There was no problem, except tektronix installed 25V caps on a 35V line. It is recommended they be changed... In 1985. So I changed them in 2018. From Tekwiki http://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/7CT1N "C30

If nothing else I found out a few things. First of all for some reason they use the shield of the coax cable for the blanking signal. The reason for that is a mystery. Why they reverse the connection
