Re: Grid Bias Adjustment on 475A
The diagrm I have for 475A has the Q1332 base grounded. I am not sure about the readings you have mentioned. I have not gone through the whole manual but just looking at the schematic only. Also, do

Re: Tek 2465b two probes showing slightly different voltages and phases
Yes, it works better in US units -- "1ns per foot". "3.3ns per meter" just doesn't quite have the same mnemonic quality. --Tom -- Prof. Thomas H. Lee Allen Ctr., Rm. 205 350 Jane Stanford Way Stanford

Re: Tek 2465b two probes showing slightly different voltages and phases
Wow, that brought back a memory - I attended her talk in person when I was a cadet at the USAF Academy, and that 11.8" has always stuck with me and been quite useful. That would have been about 1977.

To answer a few other questions: I used a blank module kit to build this project, I lucked into one when buying a 'mainframe with modules fitted' at Yahoo Auctions so put it to good use. But I don't

Hi, Wow, I didn't expect such a big response. :D haha As for production of PCB's, I did use PCBWay as they are a sponsor of my Youtube channel, however, they are a slightly more 'premium' Chinese

Re: Fun with the type S plugin
Thanks everyone for your comments. It certainly uses some early Ge pnp transistors in less critical areas. The lowest 2N number in it is a 2N270 which is an emitter follower for the shift voltage

Some minor fitting and stuff says that either the TM500 shell will work (best), or the TM5000 shell (likely less available).? I think that the 5000 series scope extrusions are the same width and have

Jared, Where did you get the extruded aluminum panels for the top and bottom of the unit? Were those reused from another module, or is there some way to get new parts? -- Jeff Dutky

Grid Bias Adjustment on 475A
I've been trying to run through the calibration process for the 475A that had a blown Z-axis amp, and I've run into trouble right off the bat. I was unable to get a visible spot on screen at the +15 V

Why would using Chinese made boards require a different physical design? The author, Jared Cabot, used PCBWay, surely fab'd in China, and provided Gerber files for each of the four PWBs. Since several
