2465B leaky voltage
This morning, I was working with my scope, and I touched the CH1 BNC socket - ground side.
BZZZZ.
I thought I was dreaming.
I measured the voltage to AC Ground - 113VAC!!!
So something's leaking

Re: My 2465B has arrived + A5 Board leaky caps cleanup
Alex,
There is a vast amount of information around about the A5 corrosion problem. The corrosion usually causes two 10k precision resistors to change their value. These set the voltage reference for

Re: Tektronix 067-0625-00 Peak to Peak Detector Battery
OK - the correct physical size is 1/3 AA. Although tagged batteries of that size are available, they
all seem to be rechargeable 1.2V.
But, the physically smaller 1/3 N (11.6mm dia, 10.8mm long) at

Re: Tektronix 067-0625-00 Peak to Peak Detector Battery
That is really neat! Apparently available in Australia and NZ. But so far no luck finding in the UK or
Europe.
I'll try out my solution and report back what the result is.

Re: Tektronix 067-0625-00 Peak to Peak Detector Battery
Hello Craig
I've recently had to replace the original 1.35v mercury batteries in my 067-0625-00. I used 1.5v alkaline A1PX-BP1 batteries. Readily available and they are an exact fit - but you do

Re: Type G plugin versions
Wow- my G is s/s 9934, so it's just after the change.? Strange that they didn't change the sheet metal right away.

Re: Tektronix 067-0625-00 Peak to Peak Detector Battery
I have two of these. The batteries are used for is to provide a DC offset "bucking voltage" of 0.3V
via a resistor network and adjustable resistors R8/R9 that sets zero output at 1.2V p-p.

Re: My 2465B has arrived + A5 Board leaky caps cleanup
Alex,
Very nice cleanup job.
I'd just like to jump in here about removing SMD caps with minimal chance of pad damage.
Every technician has his own favorite method of removing SMD capacitors.

No issues to be expected at the frequencies involved. Any good-quality trimmer should do but you may prefer the looks and fit of an original...... As promised, I'll have a look on Tuesday but please,

Re: Type G plugin versions
I was partly wrong. Tek retooled the front panel for BNC, but not until 1967. From 1963 through 1966, they used the UHF front panel with a square-flange BNC jack and plastic trim covering the

Just realized yours is a 468. It's probably the same as the equivalent cap in a 465(B). I'll be in the lab coming Tuesday and have a look, possibly take a few pictures. I can't imagine the
