Re: SC502 - N-Channel FET: Q933 and Q958 N-Channel FET
Clark, Thanks for the offer! I will get back to you on that after I exhaust other possibilities. Barry

Re: SC502 - N-Channel FET: Q933 and Q958 N-Channel FET
If I am reading this correctly its just a matter of replacing the 2 130s with 2 FET. Does anyone know if a modern replacement for the FETs will work in this application? If so what is the part

Re: about those vintage ceramic terminal strips...
I will 2nd Randy's question regarding having issues of soldering on Ceramic Terminal strips. If anyone has knowledge on the best way and/or equipment (does it need a very large soldering iron to

Re: about those vintage ceramic terminal strips...
Some (most?) of the manuals for equipment that contains those strips have a section that shows the proper way to solder those. Barry - N4BUQ

Re: about those vintage ceramic terminal strips...
Randy, Just a side note. I don¡¯t know if you are aware of a soldering issue involved with those terminal strips. The silver plating is very fragile and use of standard solder will leach the

Re: SC502 Trace Problem
Harvey, Thanks for your quick response! 4This morning I decided to remove the CRT. Just after it cleared the chassis I noticed that the Upper / lower deflector plates were not connected. At the

Re: SC502 - N-Channel FET: Q933 and Q958 N-Channel FET
Barry, I have several of these transistors. They are essentially NOS in an open box. That is how Tek kept them in the engineering stock room. I do not have a convenient way to test them. I can send

Re: What caused this on electrolytics in 422?
Seem like the mold theory on certain plastics is a good idea. I also see it on some plastic sleve insulation that Tek put over connection points and test points. All the caps effected has a plastic

Re: SC502 Trace Problem
Half of the vertical amplifier is effectively dead.? The causes could be anything from a broken wire to a dead transistor. 1. examine the wires to the CRT, they should both be connected (can

Re: Very dirty Scope cleaning/ restoration
Thank for the suggestion Dave. Although the connectors have been pulled out, the cables are so ¡°dried¡± and ¡°hardend¡± that it is possible to figure out how they were once connected. Most of

SC502 - N-Channel FET: Q933 and Q958 N-Channel FET
Greetings, The schematic show these parts to be "FET N-Channel" 151-1005-00. However this SC502 was found with 130 ohm 1/4 watt resistors in those location. Those resistors were found to be burnt and

SC502 Trace Problem
Greetings! I have been working on an SC502 that I suspect has been out of service for some time. I got all the power supplies working, about 10 faulty components. Then I found a bad trimmer pot that

about those vintage ceramic terminal strips...
Hello there, I just used some NOS Tek ceramic terminals to build up a project. These are the ones found in the 500 and 560 series scopes. I was surprised at how much heat was required to install

Re: 7704A - Readout Stretches Vertically
I forgot : - If the scan signal at the pin 7 of the character generators are "normal" in frequency and amplitude, the problem could be located in the way the output of the chars generators is

Re: 7704A - Readout Stretches Vertically
Hi Barry, I don't have a 7704 but the readout board seems very similar to the one I have in my 7603(s). From my understanding, the characters are drawn twice by the chars generators during one period
