Re: Video triggering of 'scopes in general
Some 7B53As have video sync. I have two. Don't really use that feature but they work fine anyway. Might check those manuals as well. Also, Is that feature good for anything else? Bob

Re: 7854: Excessive stored trace brightness.
Do you have a dual time base, a 7B87, or a 7B80/7B85 (or equivalent) which you could use to check if the A intensified by B display is correct? I wonder if your readout troubles are related. The

Re: 7854: Excessive stored trace brightness.
Yup. Blanking looks good to me... I'll double check the pot, and make certain its smooth. It looks like I have some reading to do in the manual....(this is certainly going to be umm.. interesting)

Thanks. I did pull out the HV probe and measured the HV TP on the z-axis board- -2985V. This is with two plugins loaded. I will try your other suggestions later, gotta run right now for other

Re: Help with R7903 needed, some success...
The regulated voltages at P1896 all look fine. Note that the pin 2 voltage at 129.5 is right where it should be after you adjusted R1293 for what I assume is +55 at TP1625. The unregulated voltages

Thanks David. Here are my current readings after adjusting R1293/TP1625 and R1513/-50V: At P1896: Pin 2 (+130V): 129.5 Pin 3 (+50V): 50.0 Pin 4 (+15V): 15.07 Pin 5 (+5V): 5.02 Pin 6 (-15V): -14.98 Pin

Re: 7854: Excessive stored trace brightness.
I would not count on the potentiometer being good. With age the wiper in that type tends to become open and intermittent which can be repaired by cleaning it. I need to clean those potentiometers on

7854: Excessive stored trace brightness.
Hello all, I'm kind of getting around to poking at my 7854 scope. The stored trace brightness is excessive, and the adjustment won't go down any further. I'm reasonably certain the pot is good, since

Re: Help with R7903 needed, some success...
Still working on this R7903 repair, still at this point concentrated on the PS. The PS is no longer in tic mode- yea! The service manual says to adjust TP1625 for +55 volts plus-or-minus 25 volts.

Re: Video triggering of 'scopes in general
Look at the LM1881 video sync IC for more ideas on good ole NTSC stuff. This is one of the most elaborate, yet simple to use ICs for decoding and triggering of video signals, and National's datasheet
