Re: Tek 576 Curve Tracer repair
The knobs crack, because the inner metal part is just pressed into the plastic, while of course it has to be a little bit too large, or it won't stay in. So on the long term, the knobs will crack.

Re: Compatibility of TM500 Plug-Ins & TM5000 mainframes - SG503
@Harvey
Measured voltage across 0.33ohm R624 = ~0.35V. So ~1A. Seems normal.
One thing I learned reading through the circuit description is that 5V supply is referenced from the -22V rail. Would

@Hakan,
thanks for the info, yeah but it seemed to confuse Eric on the part number(the 465 having a rectangular CRT unlike the 5 inch round CRT I would like to buy)

I had JLCPCB make some small parts out of black nylon for one of my plugins. They did very good work.

Re: Tek 2236 scope repair
Have you already checked/replaced C940 and R949? I assumed yes but not sure.
What is the voltage across R949 (0.51 ohms)? Measure on a DMM, not scope, then calculate the current. Does it agree fairly

Re: 3D print 184/284/191 etc rear foot
Adam,
Thanks for posting this and for the stl file. The Tek part number is 348-0075-00. It seems like the rear feet (guards), are always broken.
I initially printed a prototype on my home printer

Obviously you didn't understand the info.
To clearify...
1: The purpose of the other listed instruments was to help you find another donor which use the same CRT.
2: The purpose of the different

Re: Tek 2236 scope repair
I meant that I get 1.9V on the bottom of C943 with 42 volts (and with the potentiometer turned a little).
It looks like the regulation is working, but it still doesn't start up properly. To start it

Re: Tek 2236 scope repair
Here are my measurements:
Input voltage: 39.57V
Q944: C = 10V, B = -0.3V, E = -1V
Q939: C = -0.3V, B = 33.41, E = 33.91
C943 negative: -1.9V
Q938: C = 5.58V, B = 33.28V E = 33.90V
C942: 33.83V

I will check the stock again tonight I do belive I have one of the T0520-31.
I will let you know this evening.

Re: 465B - square wave trace shows horozontal line across top of pulses, but not bottom
Forgot to mention the apparent brightness of the trace in the picture could be a camera artifact, being more sensitive than the eye. You'll have to judge the actual brightness.

The recent comments made me look at the picture. Yes, that intensity looks really cranked up too high, obvious from the blooming. The retrace blanking isn't perfect, so some will show through when
