Although this does not relate to your oscillograph, I had a similar biting curiosity about an oscillograph many years ago Many years ago I bought a very early text book that was way overpriced on my

Just looked it up....that is indeed a thing of beauty. The only -hp- scope I own is a 1727A storage scope (a very nice instrument in it's own right), but that 143A is super awesome. Maybe

One of my prized possessions was the HP 143A Oscilloscope mainframe, which took the various RF and IF spectrum analyzer sections that the 141 took. The screen was 8 x 10 inches, instead of cm.

Interesting. Are there any scans of that datasheet? Good luck finding one...my gut feeling says that if any exist it'll be in someone's estate. Sean

I've been looking for one of those for years. Never came across anything other than a couple of ads in some old magazines and I have a 4 page data sheet from 1943. It used a 20AP1 CRT, frequency

My 7904 has developed a blanking problem. The CRT screen shows the beam spot as it flies back at the end of each scan. A quick look at OCR'ed manual find some discussion on "Horizontal Chopped

Tom stepped in to help many a time, with my queries. Much appreciated, and he will be missed! RIP Menahem Yachad

Hi all, Sorry for the OT, but figure this is a good place to ask. This is more of a curiousity thing for me...I don't have room for one of these 350 lb behemoths if one was still in existence and

He will be missed around here. I believe this is the obit. https://www.hotrod.com/articles/farewell-drag-racing-legend-tom-jobe-1940-2019/ RIP Tom.

Did not have the pleasure of Tom Job's aquaitence, but from your Post I am quite sure it is my loss. Condolences to all Tom's family and freinds during this time of grief. JR aol.com@groups.io>

Very sad to hear this. Getting started with my tek 2213A I ended up spending hours upon hours, even days trawling old posts here over the span of a few months. During that time, I ended up reading so

Hello Chuck, Would you consider investigating reasonable shipping costs to near Melbourne Australia. I'm a physicist and engineer working at our national synchrotron facility but also an avid vintage

Gang, I’m very sad to share the news that a good friend and member of our Tekscope community, Tom Job, has passed away. I for one will miss his kind and thoughtful posts. Tom truly embodied the

Mmm that is nice. Too bad it. Is so far away.

OT, but wow, the work you put into those pre-war TV restoration jobs is impressive. Beautiful results. It must be a full-time job just to coordinate all of the cabinet work, transformer winding,

7104's are fantastic. I have 3, and each was handled by high level experts who never abused them. The micro-channel CRT really lives up to the claims. The display is bright and crisp right up to

If anyone is still looking for a 7104, I found one in my storage building. It works well CRT is bright with 7A29, 7A29 opt 4, 7B15, 7B92A. Looked all over for a 7B10 but don't have one. I really don't

Congrats on your acquisition. Fingers crossed it arrives in good order. Another thing I forgot to mention; if I need to do probing with mine I have a pair of P6201 FET probes. One of which I was

Thanks to all for their contributions. Please forgive my cross posting. When I originally posted, I *thought* the 7104 was what I wanted, but HP has made so much fine gear I wasn't sure. And I got as
