Re: 2235 Horizontal Calibration Issue
Check the voltages on the horizontal amp schematic on page 193. If those are okay, then move to whatever is before the horizontal amp and check those voltages. If you have another scope you can check

Re: P6137 scope probe repair
Cool, Jared! Document with pics as you go. I'm sure that you'll learn a great deal and will have good advice for the next person to attempt a probe repair. And if you ever get a chance, I personally

Re: 2235 Horizontal Calibration Issue
Thanks Raymond, That¡¯s exactly it ??a linearity problem???. That¡¯s the term I was looking for and which best describes the issue. Thank you

Re: 2235 Horizontal Calibration Issue
Although I don¡¯t understand 90% of all this, it seems very interesting. Maybe you guys have an idea where I should start looking, besides the voltages mentioned earlier. Worth noting that when I

Re: P6137 scope probe repair
Ok, so repair is back on the table. The seller gave me a full refund and told me to keep the probe. :) I was thinking about how to uncrimp the connection, I think if I cut the cable flush, then dig

Re: NPN-PNP diff pairs; Was 2235 Horizontal Calibration Issue
Hi Ozan, Yes, it's funny how once you notice something, you suddenly see it everywhere. In the case of the 741, that NPN-PNP mashup was done to work around the terrible performance of PNPs. By

Re: 2235 Horizontal Calibration Issue
Hi Tom and keantoken, Thank you for the information. I don't want to hijack this thread, maybe we should start a new one if we have more ideas. I have seen series NPN-PNP pairs before, LM 741 input

Re: 465 55v regulated filter cap type.
I'll second Dave Wise's statements. My rules-of-thumb for replacing tantalums - in order of preference: 1. Film caps where they will fit - same or slightly higher capacitance, and generously higher

Re: 577 Bad CRT?
There could be several causes to the flashing. Sorry if I am repeating some advice you've gotten, as I haven't the patience to read the entire thread. Grid-cathode shorts are not an uncommon problem,

Re: 577 Bad CRT?
Tam I am crossing my fingers that hopefully the CRT is okay but in the case that it isn't I have another broken 577 which I think I can salvage a CRT from but in any case your offer is appreciated.

Re: P6131, T-coils and other probe stuff
Thank you very much, John -- I appreciate it greatly! I had fun this afternoon trying to figure out how the T-coil in the 6131 is wound and connected. It's a quadrifilar winding -- four colors, two

Re: P6131, T-coils and other probe stuff
Tom, I'm happy to send the manual along. I think that the P6131 had some major changes over its production history, particularly a new comp box housing design. They show both box types in the

Re: 2235 Horizontal Calibration Issue
A horizontal amplifier has very different requirements from those for a vertical amplifier. A vertical amplifier is supposed to be reproduce arbitrary waveforms within a large specified bandwidth. It

I am just replacing caps on a TDS420 power supply , more than one actually, they looked fine from the top, no corrosion.When I took them off they were all leaking underneath but had not damaged

Re: 2235 Horizontal Calibration Issue
Hi Ozan, on DIYAudio.com this arrangement is known as a "Rush cascode", because it was used by Christopher Rush in connection with THX. But it was always one potential way to make a differential pair
