Re: OT Hg bat corrosion
I have restored one of these. The transistor types are not too critical, you could use just about any old Ge small signal transistors of the right polarity if you can find them. Maybe even silicon. I

Re: Is there a good group where I could ask a question about a Tek 1103 External Power Supply repair-the Tektronix group seems dead
They're simple 78xx or 79xx regulators.? Do please ask. Datasheets available (at least on the one I have). Harvey

Re: 5A26 war story
So the collector of Q386 was running a little less negative than in the working unit. That's a diode drop below the gate of Q392 (confirmed), which seemed relevant. It's also a diode drop below the

Re: Which deserves to live, 2445 or 2465?
My question is whether the RU800 would work better in the 2445 than in the 2465. I understand that there is some bandwidth limitation with the RU800, and that might not be a problem when the scope has

Re: Which deserves to live, 2445 or 2465?
I'd fix up the 2465A first. Put U800 on a socket if you have to replace it. It will make putting in an RU800 so much easier if necessary. FWIW I installed the first generation RU800 in my 2465 and it

Re: 5A26 war story
So the displayed voltage of channel 1 was shifting with trace alternation. The rest of this will make more sense with reference to "output amplifiers <2>" schematic. See page 51 in this PDF on

Re: A Tale of Two 7D14s
Now I'm not sure.? I'll have to go look and find out.? Was using a TDS540A, which should go to 500 Mhz.? I can switch to an active probe and see what goes on. Back after a bit. Thanks. Harvey

Re: tek 577 non linear behavior in both vertical and horizontal deflection amplifiers
Rogerio, R110/1/2/37 are stressed at 1/2W. Mouser has MFR200 types in stock, if you do not have 1 or 2W in stock. The 2W Mouser has is cheaper than the 1W types and the additional power capacity will

Re: A Tale of Two 7D14s
Perhaps input frequency is too high for your scope to show the sharp edges but otherwise sine wave is not expected at U329 inputs, it should look like a square wave. Do you see the correct waveform at
