Hi,

I've have a Tek 7104 with a 500MHz timebase plugin (7A29 ? it's around here somewhere) and a 7904.

The 7104 looks new and i have a thick service manual for it.
The 7904 is older looking and also has a manual.

I've got like 20+ vertical and timebase plugins.

I haven't switch them on for years but worked last time i used them.

Would be good to gradually ramp up the mains voltage to reform the caps using a variac.

I'm trying to make space, and so would be good for them to go to a suitable collector or someone that treats them well.

I can deliver to the Melbourne (Australia) and surrounding regions. I won't post them (unless someone convinces me otherwise).

I still do and think of analog stuff a lot, but the software and programming side of things (all aimed at analog electronic things eventually) means this gear won't be used for a long time.

Also got an HP141T spec-an system with all the plugins to cover from audio to 18GHz, and its 2 tracking generators (an 8443B 100kHz-110MHz and a 8444A-opt059 0.5-1500MHz). Got service manuals for all of them iirc. It all worked last time i used them. The caps would probably need reforming. This gear is a bit clunky to use compared to more modern CPU controlled gear, but is very repaireable. I have extender cards for servicing around somewhere too.

If there's too many takers, i would have to figure out the most worthy (probably someone that has the most gear, or that does the most impressive things).
If there's no one, i'll take them to hamfests.

Hi Russell,
I am interested in MOST? of this equipment particularly a tracking generator for my HP141T (and? a RF, Audio, plugin)
I am located in Sydney but i think i can get a courier to pick up from you without causing you too much trouble
I too am a collector with a lot of Tek and Hp gear
The 7104 would be nice (have a 7904 ) but perhaps too hard to get up to Sydney ??
I am very interested in Service Manuals and any extenders you have
Anything you send me will be used and? carefully restored so it will go to a good home
I'm retired these days and come from a Electronics Tech / Engineering background
Worked for many years with this era of Tek HP equipment and just love it
Hope to hear from you soon
Cheers

Hi Russell,
Forgot to mention that i am happy to buy items from? you (or send money to your favorite charity)...eg Have been after a HP8444a tracking generator for the Hp141 for years, to go with the pre selector, i just repaired (also would love to get ANY extender to suite the above gear)
Also, If a courier does not suit perhaps you could drop off at "pack and send who will pack it for you as well as send
Cheers
George

Hello George.L,

I am arranging to sell the gear as complete systems to two other enthusiast buyers.

These decisions are hard to make for much worthy interest.

Thankyou very much for your interest in keeping nice old machines running.
