Re: 2445 Power supply Fail
You need to remove the whole PSU block. Then there are comb connectors between the A2 and A3 PCB's, with plastic clips to release. And finally, I always snip the defective component's leads, right at

Re: 492 master reference oxco adjustment possible? or useless?
Does your 492B have the OCXO reference option? If so, then you just need to remove the large screw that covers the trimmer and adjust it (carefully) with an alignment tool. If not, the only available

492 master reference oxco adjustment possible? or useless?
Is it possible to adj the master oscillator in a 492B? I cant find anything in the manual (so far). If i can get a GPSDO, I could adjust the 492 after many years - but it may only matter in count mode

Re: Tek 453 Trigger Fault
The 453 is extremely repairable. It has no proprietary ICs, for one thing. Replacement Nuvistors are surprisingly available, and even if that weren't the case, they can be replaced by JFETs without

Re: Tek 453 Trigger Fault
The first thing you should ask your friend is what the serial number is for his 453. w140.com has the operator and service manuals- there's one set of manuals for serial numbers up to 20000, and

Re: counter problem
That sounds a lot like an error code, which is documented in a very small and obscure portion of the manual. There's a similar type (guessing here for the DC5030A) of error message on the DM5010

A while ago, I found, at a ham swap, a TM500 DC5030A counter., SN B011601, visually good condition, but, on being powered shows what, for me, is an odd fault. With or no input, digits on te right side

Re: Tek 453 Trigger Fault
The 453/454 scopes are very repairable and don't let nuvistors scare you off. Think of them as transistors that get hot. They are also very reliable and easily replacable if one does go bad. Other
