Re: Tek 651HR colour monitor

Re: 2465 Power Supply

Re: 2465 Power Supply
Richard, Chuck is a wonderful asset to the community.? I say he has probably forgotten more than many people know in total.? When it comes to these 24xx series, he is the man.? Glad your scope is

Re: 2465 Power Supply
Good news! Thanks to a couple of prompts from Chuck, I changed the main capacitors for the ¡À15 volt supplies and the display is now rock steady. I've left it on the bench overnight, I'll do more

Thanks Chuck, I'll apologise for the photo - I've only just worked out how to upload photos to the site and the 'scope was facing into a corner.... I've added some more photos - the worst is the -15V

Re: Powering up Tek 7704A and 7603 after several year.
If the scope went through shipping, I take it apart and shake it out... Always a good idea to remove stray parts and hardware before applying power. Next, I check the power line range switch and line

Re: 2465 Power Supply
Ripple from the HV oscillator usually goes the other way: out of the power supply onto the -15V power bus. To reduce the spikes there is a 100uf electrolytic cap (C1972) right near the power connector

Re: 2465 Power Supply
This one is a plain old 2465. I do have an A version as well, that's working quite well, but the 300MHz one is my favourite. Unfortunately it's not jitter - that control makes no difference (although
