This method must be good since we have independently arrived at exactly the same thing, especially the circular motion seems to be the key, as well as triggering the vacuum only when the solder has

Looks like a waveform monitor or vectorscope to me as opposedto a "real" scope

Does anyone recognise eBay item 370424152688 Thanks Dave

Dave, I can remove any IC using my trustworthy weller soldering station and a common solder sucker pump. It is just a matter of learning how to do. I'm planing in buying a mini-dv camera (as

So, the question is (remembering that I hate computers and don't have a clue about where, how, when, who, etc.) (1) where to I safely upload the files to AND (2) how is this accomplished? The files

Hi, I use my vacuum desoldering gun when removing ICs. I make sure the gun is cleaning and drawing good and makes sure I have the solder flowing before I trigger. I move the tip in a tight circular

Roger The best approach IMO for removing IC's from a thru-hole PCB is to take a small pair of cutters clip the IC out lead by lead and then use your desoldering iron to remove the lead ends

Folks, Thank you for your replies. First, I have to correct my first post: I pulled out Q1150 and Q1160. Q1170 is still on the board. Also, I forgot to mention that the +/- 25V are also OK. According

Mine exhibited a similar problem once and the culprit was a group of 4 series connected 510k resistors in the dropper chain that fed the focus control. These run a little hot and one had

Steve, Don't know if DR DOS is an option for you: http://www.drdosprojects.de/index.cgi/download.htm I was also recently in a similar situation, and could not find an MS DOS disk set. In my case

Dean, If you can get it uploaded anywhere someone in this group can then also put a copy in one of the Tek libraries owned by group members which last a lot longer than the site you mentioned. Bob

Do you have the +/- 25 volts? What is on pin 2 ofthe amp? Can you set that to 0 volts with R1140? The +7 at pin 6 sounds bad if pin 2 isnear 0 volts. What about Q1160 and 1180. Are they ok? Check
