Re: 2465 Power Supply
Hi, Not at home at the moment, but if I remember correctly, there is a "read-out jitter" adjustment somewhere in the calibration routine. Will check later, but it is somewhere in the service manual

Re: 7704A power supply fail (big leak of the main caps)
I've considered replacing all wet caps once the PS was out (obviously they're all due), but as I needed to test my work with the large ones, it's all now back together. Maybe I'll stumble on an open

Re: 7704A power supply fail (big leak of the main caps)
I think I'm done with the repair. See /g/TekScopes/album?id=282665. What leaked (mainly?) was C3016, but C3017 was also suspect, so I replaced both. Though I'd never run this with

Re: 7704A power supply fail (big leak of the main caps)
I've placed an order for some screw terminal caps, but I do have some United Chemicon KMZs (680uF/450V) at hand that may work. I'd need to jerry-rig then in there, which doesn't seem too difficult.

Re: TDS8200 80E04 TDT/Sampling Module
Oh, ok. So they have beam lead pin diodes too then. I'll do more research to clarify. The Schottky makes more sense due to the lower forward bias. Thanks for the info! Aaron
