Re: 2465 blower
If it is a bush bearing, is it not possible to turn one out using phosphor bronze? If you are near a machine shop, it might be an idea to show them and see how much they would charge.

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
I finally realized a couple months ago that the colors on multicolored ribbon cable actually meant something other than just identifying separate wires. Standard resistor color code, duh. Start with

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
I agree with Michael. I always looked at the striping as just a means of identifying a wire from one end of a cable to the other and hadn't thought about the color codes indicating a pin number, etc.

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Raymond, When I read your comments, such as above, I realize just how little I actually know. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I will never look at those wires and stripes the same way,

Re: Fast probe prices?
That's a lot of ringing (and it persists for a long time, too)! For the "direct" test, did you also have the tee with the 50 ohm terminator attached? (Is the ringing from the probe itself or from the

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Correction: The background color is not *printed*, so a straight white wire would indicate pin 9. Tek avoided this by not using pin 9 on the 465's CRT -;). Raymond

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Using the resistor color code, brown-white would translate to 19. The brown-red combination on a white background indicates 12 - or 21. The CRT socket however only has 14 pins. The background color is

Re: Early 465 CRT "mesh" or "Post Accelerator Grid".
Because, using the resistor color code, brown-white translates to 12, the CRT pin number it goes to. And for pins 1-9, I'll bet there will be only one stripe. Nice catch, I wouldn't have gotten it

454 Fireworks Followup to the Followup
Well, I finally got me some 2N3442s from mouser. Good news: the HV sparking problem was definitely cause by the 75V regulator going short. Bad news: there appears to be no vertical deflection. But,
