Yes, I just saw that as well. Lead time: 3 weeks. And that’s before shipping. 3904’s seem to do the job well quite well. Unless there is a particular reason to switch back to 3565’s, I’ll

Ah, yes. Now I remember. Try this: https://www.mouser.fr/ProductDetail/Central-Semiconductor/2N3565-PBFREE?qs=%2Fha2pyFaduixFoFz41ximubJVln7aNMI0hWYPb32rxc%3D It should work, as it worked for

Paris

Also available in London, UK. So where do you live?

Not available where I live. And 3904’s seem to do the job perfectly in that application. And my local store said they were obsolete parts.

Am I missing something? 2N3565 is available at Mouser: 1,683 Can Ship Immediately, $5.30

OK, so you want to replace the cable only and mount the connectors yourself ? As far as I know that can't be done. You won't find the cable or connectors for sale by Tek or anyone else. Check again.

I finally fixed it completely. Even the trace bouncing off the left wall of the CRT. I had -20VDC at the TP, but no +20VDC. After changing a few tantalums (C940, C950-because it was closer the what

Hi Ed, If you have a cheap complete SC502 that need repairs but with the unobtainum parts included, I would be interested. Contact me via email. Best regards,

One of the nice features on the 485 is that you can switch the calibrator from 1kHz for the standard compensation adjustments to 1MHz for the rise time checks when otherwise the trace would be very

Yes. The compensation box and shell come off...but I said "I'm not even sure the probe comes apart... so that you could replace the cable"... replace the actual coax cable... not replace the "cable

there little to nothing on the Tekwiki page (other than the title) that applies to just the P6139... everything is about/for the P6139A. (The link to the EEVblog post about the tin whiskers problem is

Hey David that is exactly what the signal was it was a fast rise at 1Khz. Eric

Transistors Q935, Q940, Q960 replaced. No change... Since I’m at a complete loss, I decided to look at the other end, from the power switch, which is located on the opposite board (A2), and look

Thank You Brad

Typically you need a faster repetition rate on your test signal for it to be bright at 500pS/div. I'm guessing that you were using a fast rise pulse from a CG551AP or CG5001 or PG506 for

I will put in the 3904 then. It’s in the power section, not the amplifiers. And thank you for the offer Ed. I may need some parts. Will let you know as I move along with repair.

Update: - Locating a new switch was going to be a fools errand - Repairing the switch also seemed impractical - I got lucky because the missing signals were simply grounding control

I was working on some 7000 series plugins and I noticed some strange behavior out of my 7904A. during the high frequency calibration I found that the scope was a little dim readable for the
