Re: Tek 465 no display
That would be great Albert. My A9 layout is tough to read. If it wasn't for the grid location list I would have to have guessed what was what. Now it looks like it's on to other boards to get that

Re: Tek 465 no display
Uh-oh. This is what happened to me. I started with a slightly broken 2465, got hooked fixing it and now I'm knee deep in Tek scopes. Have fun - IMHO each of those old service manuals is education. If

Re: Tek 465 no display
Thanks for the nudge Harvey. And for the helpful suggestions from other scope ninjas here. I have some breadboards and lots of passive components...even a few transistors. Maybe if the smoke clears

Re: 575 restoration
Thanks guys. The 575 in my possession has no "bottom" plate, either over the EHT box nor the 'scope main chassis. The second photo is of the underside "as-is". I can't see how ether could be attached,

Re: If you had $1, 000 to buy a 100 MHz scope...
Siglent makes the very low end Lecroy scopes. At Lecroy prices, they suck. At Siglent prices it's a whole different story. The shuttered CRT on my 544A is probably a bit dim. I can hardly see the one

Re: If you had $1, 000 to buy a 100 MHz scope...
I have a couple TDS754s. An 'A' and a 'D' - while I agree that the 'A' is a little slow to respond at times when doing more processor heavy work, the 'D' is very snappy and responsive.? I find little

Re: Tek 465 no display
That's a LOT of progress Russ! With some more experience you might have thought already of a shorted C1549 after posts by Harvey and Fabio IIRC. One was that as good as zero output is a significant

Re: If you had $1, 000 to buy a 100 MHz scope...
My TDS784D is only turned on when I need the bandwidth or one of its features, I'll usually reach for the 2467 or the HP54622D - in that order of preference. If Rigol is under consideration, you may

Re: Tek 465 no display
One step closer! C1549 looked like it might have been replaced with a mylar cap. As soon as I unsoldered one side and turned on the scope, the fan came on! So i replaced it with a 47mf 25 v

Re: 575 restoration
Hi John, Lack of shielding, maybe (RFI from HV circuit)? I think the '575 doesn't have a shield lid in the HV area, but you can try again with the bottom lid in its place. Regards, Sebastian. PS:

Re: If you had $1, 000 to buy a 100 MHz scope...
I have a TDS544 at home, which is somewhat similar to the newer TDS784D, and I really dislike the display, menu structure, and general lack of responsiveness. To me this is the point where Tek went

I picked up a working 1502 a few years ago on that auction site. The batteries were shot, but I found a paper on using a resistor and a big cap to fool it into thinking it had batteries. I think I
