What if each person agreeing to help gets assigned one catalog to go through? Direct access to TekWiki would be ideal for efficiency, but we'll still need to have a basic format for the information

That wasn't my intention. A sub page with a link from the instrument's main page would take you to it, only if you need it.

Kurt Rosenfeld will be at VintageTEK this Saturday, March 3 starting about 10AM. Kurt founded and runs the extensive TekWiki site at w140.com. The purpose of Kurt's TekWiki is to help people

The usual benefit of a Wiki is that anyone — or at least anyone explicitly given edit access — can edit it. We sometimes use internal-only Wikis at work to facilitate collaboration on shared

Spreadsheet might be too much work for some or some may just not like them. I fall into the second category. A simple text file would suffice. Vince. -- Michigan VHF Corp.

Definitely a great idea!! It seems like the next step is to figure out a basic format for the spreadsheet and how people are going to go about adding it to a single document. Then once there's say,

I'm shaking my head that I didn't even begin to think to do that... Interesting piece of information that I wasn't aware of... I just looked it up and it's a good bit SE of my location. I'm in the

Hello, I am also one of the TekWiki "helpers". I see a couple of different relatively easy methods that could be used to gather the information (I'm sure that there are lots of other ways of which I

Excellent; thanks! I might even have suitable transistors already knocking around in my parts bins. Without much thought, I’d assumed the use of a dual packaging meant there was some critical need

A TekScopes helper could volunteer for one instrument. They would search the catalogs on TekWiki for their instrument.  They would save the option information by year in a file on groups.io files

Project complete. Replaced U700, and the trace came back to normal. A BIG thanks for everyone's help!!! Just an additional story here. You all remember that I bought this scope from Alexander

Here you go - PN2484, the plastic packaged version of the 2N2484. Mouser 42c each or $3.51 for 10. Buy ten and find two with close hfe, shove them in.

The only reason that Tek used a dual is - well because they were more easily available back then. I would just take two generic NPN TO92 parts with gains of about 100-200 (you could easily match from

It would be a lot quicker if the folks in the community were to contribute to a list kept in a central location, then Kurt's current helpers (of which I'm one) can take from that list and add to the

It's only going to ground with the ground tab in the ground hole, any other use is not covered in the manual. Check the fine print in the revision of the manual that wasn't published (see internal

I’m bringing a 7603 back from having released its magic smoke. The +15 volt rail is dead, the 0.1 ohm current sense resistor R935 having gotten hot enough to have unsoldered itself and fallen out.

Dennis, I've already checked the catalogs up 1986 and didn't see Option 93 listed for the 485 as well as the other models. I'll do it once again as you suggest... Kevin, There is an Option 11 - P11

Great idea. I'd add some sort of reviewer commenting or track changes, like in MS Word, functionality so everyone can see who made changes and why. Kind of like a document change control process to
