Re: Type 130 L-C Meter
Thank you Bob. I am fortunate in that my 130, unlike about all my other Tek gear, is very clean. Possibly came out of a clean room, who knows. No evidence of tobacco tar or even much dust. Will also

Re: A sick 465B
After replacing the CRT with an apparently new part (the anode lead was unbent and had no soot on it, and was strapped to the neck with a latched rubber belt) I now have absolutely no traces on the

Re: Type 130 L-C Meter
Dave, Stephen and Albert, My unit is serial 90XX (forgot already), and as was noted, has a 6DJ8 for V70, although the chassis panel lists the 6BQ7 as well. Not sure if I am going to the dungeon

Re: Tek TDS-3000 V3.41 Firmware
To follow up on my previous message, I just noticed that when I copied the V3.41 files from my computer to a memory stick, for carrying to my old laptop in the shop, each file was swelled by 20 to 30

Re: Type 130 L-C Meter
Hi Dave, The docs at VintageTek are great. The gentleman who wrote the three-part article did a remarkable job of documenting his restoration of his 130. He even restored the manual (he did more than

Re: Type 130 L-C Meter
Thank you Tom, will take a closer look at the resistors in that circuit, and will then report back. Dave (yeah, go by Dave, never much cared for Jerome)

Tek 2715 75 to 50 ohms conversion
Hi, I want to change my Tek 2715 75 ohms input to 50 ohms. From what I read in the service manual, its just the input connector that has a 25 ohms resistor, internals of the 2715 is all 50 ohms. Has

Re: Tek 468 GPIB board
Thanks Harvey for your reply. Yes, the 468 does not support remote operation. However it does support a remote WF request from the GPIB controller. Replacing the CPU with a more modern

Re: Tek 468 GPIB board
Some things to consider on this scope: 1) it is send only, IIRC, and was never designed for remote operation. 2) you set it up with the front panel controls, I don't think that any of the scope

Re: Tek 468 GPIB board
Hi, David. I'm mostly interested in the DIGITAL internals of the 468: how does the 8085 CPU accomplish its tasks. Making the GPIB work is part of that. As I mentioned, John (Twilight-Logic) created

Re: RTM/TM 506 Fan replacement
