Re: Tek transformer 120-0866-02
I guess there isn't a PM on this board. You can send an email to clist at handler dot com. But take the 'd' out of handler. Maybe that will keep the skimmers at bay.

Stan Griffiths - Re: [TekScopes] I wonder if there is much interest in vacuum tube oscilloscopes such as the 500 series
Hate to repeat myself but I'm worried far less about the book, which is

Re: Old Tektronix Books
Good sleuthing. If you want a laugh take a look at the price on The Cathode Ray Tube by Peter Keller. If I hadn’t retired years ago I could sell the three books and retire in style. Apparently.

Re: I wonder if there is much interest in vacuum tube oscilloscopes such as the 500 series

Re: CG551AP - has anyone seen this problem before?
Progress!
Replaced F114 fuse on the power board, and now I get errors 51, 52, 85, 87
Looking at the nominal 1V DC output it is 2.7kHz 1Vpp sine wave centred on
+1V.
I've seen this before!
