Re: High Voltage Probe to work on Scopes.
Thanks Alex, I've done similar in the past. In my case, I made a small plastic box up with a mic connector one end to take the probe and a pair of banana plugs on the other to fit into the meter. I

Differences between 465 and 465B
The nomenclature I will be using is what is on the face of the front panel. For instance, the label on the front panel is in capital letters and continued in lower case to point out the function. The

Re: Which would you pick? 454 or 475?
454 or 454A. Sharper trace. Unless, of course, you need every last bit of bandwidth.

Re: High Voltage Probe to work on Scopes.
That's true, as long as you're checking/adjusting. I used my P6015 for both checking/adjusting the power supplies as well as looking at the HV to see what's there if I'm troubleshooting. Plus, it's

Re: Which would you pick? 454 or 475?
The 454A also drifts a lot, compared to later scopes. (And BTW, I think there are some late model 454s with JFET front ends.)

Re: High Voltage Probe to work on Scopes.
Well it is a RCA WG-289 and I didn't replace the shunt resistor so much as add one. I think the probe originally came with shunt resistors in the box but it turns out it was for another probe and

Re: 2246 Mod A main board overloading the SMPS
Tom, I was only able to get enough time to assemble the SMPS into the chassis with just the main board and it runs fine - without the 40W series bulb:). The voltages are a bit off (5.28V, 7.46V etc)

Re: Need help choosing a scope and some other RF capable equipment.
David, A bias tee isn't a big deal at all, but injecting the properly biased RF voltage with the DC and RF currents at workable voltages/currents might be. I think it's an interesting project, from a

Re: Cleaning Tek475A Attenuator Switches
Great job. I did the same thing on my 465 after several months of erratic behavior and several cleanups of contacts. In the end I decided to try the chance, took off modules attenuators, took off

Re: what is the differences between 465 and 465B?
There is a nice article in one of the Tekscopes flyers which covers the updates. If nobody else gets it in the next few hours, I'll see if I can find it and attach it to a new message. I have a

Re: Which would you pick? 454 or 475?
It is funny you should mention that. I told someone on the funwithtubes list that the warm up drift he complained about in the 454 was expected because its Nuvistor based vertical amplifiers are not

Re: 2246 Mod A main board overloading the SMPS
Hi Priya, Resistances were taken on a nice working 2246 with a Fluke 110 which does not have enough voltage to forward bias the diodes. I tried this Fluke meter on some standard diodes and some

Re: Which would you pick? 454 or 475?
The 475 is definitely a better scope, but... I really enjoy using the 454. The sharp trace is very, very nice. The thing I like least about it is the DC drift/unstable attenuator balance. You end up
