In storage I have 500 series and 7K scopes stacked 5 high.  Never had issues with bent cases.  One of my 19" racks is basically a stack of gear too.  Heavy HP scope on the bottom, gradually getting

I am working on a tek 371 with a friend of mine , it has no test fixture and these things are never seen on ebay , so our idea is to make one . We are in the process of using a test fixture which will

Hi John, Interesting question! 33 years ago my wife and I agreed to split our residential office 50/50. I gradually appropriated about 2/3rds of it. At first I had plenty of room. Then I had test

Hi Harvey..of course take your point on the final comment you made...whether the depot has 'everything needed' to test the card to environmental spec was in my mind. I suppose in a way it's like say

Because the bottom layer is either a 7000 scope, or the equivalent in height, with one or two layers of test equipment beyond that.... by the time I get to the third layer, it really wants to be

Hi again Michael...I will not go any further with the reply I sent you on TREC77 as it dawned on me (I'm a bit slow) that it is not connected to the Tektronix but happy to hear more on my own email if

If these are all about the same width you could make a rack cabinet with shelves. Open front and back with a little space above each unit for ventilation. Might be that there are shelving items at

Hi Michael....can one buy "pre-shrunk" wire (which actually means before it is shrunk but going along your lines...)to fit into the pre-shrunk heat shrink?

I'm lost! Raymond

FYI I had a huge problem with this. But adding a $3 Chinese EMI filter across the power leads in the light fixture solved it quite nicely. I now keep a bunch them on hand along with various size

For many years I had a stack of the following sitting at one end of my bench. From bottom to top: HP 8660D signal generator HP 8556B spec an (both sections) Tektronix TM-5006A, fully loaded HP 3456A

Hi Michael....how interesting....no not the PRC, I know the sets you mean though....this was a 'pioneer' set...CW on Tx/Rx and AM on Rx only. RT654A/TRC 77. Still sought after as a great

I guess that you've never seen the heat shrink connectors for .500, .750 or larger hardline that have to be heated to allow you to slide the cable into? They are pre-shrunk. Michael A. Terrell

When new members join TekScopes this may be the very first time on a forum or mail reflector. The thought of asking a question, or replying to a question they can answer, could be compared to

Did you mean the PRC77? if so, both of its predecessors, the PRC10 and the PRC25 were module based radios that were designed to be repaired by swapping in spare, pre-tuned modules. I did

I apologize for my simplicity, but I have height but not a lot of bench space. It occurred to be that there might be a limit to haw many scopes/ TM's one might stack so the question is what are you
