tl;dr: check the 5115 manual at http://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/5115 I don't know how much 51xx history you know, so please pardon if I tell what you already know. Maybe you have two manuals from early y

Tim, I've changed the subject for this post. So maybe the 30V will be an easy "fix". tbd. Someone reported fixing a dead +15V rail in a 5440 with a new MJE800, so apparently they aren't invincible. ht

Tim, TekWiki has a complete 5441 manual. http://w140.com/tekwiki/wiki/5441 It doesn't have "voltage and waveform" data but has the schematic, board layout, adjustment & Theory of Operation info. Do yo

Of course I've nev<cough>r put a cap in backwards... I don't have a 51xx scope, but I looked at a bunch of 51xx manuals & schematics in the course of figuring out 5D10/mainframe interaction (https://g

...oh yeah and... Did your friend pass on any of the story of how your scope ended up unused for 40 years? pmc

No idea about the "stuff". Nor do I have a 5111 at hand to look at. Does the scope work with the storage board disconnected? I can't confirm, but I think it should.

Hello TekScopes! Thank you all for aiding and abetting. Here's a tiny bit of giving back. PHOTOS: https://groups.io/g/TekScopes/album?id=239656 The 5D10 Waveform Digitizer plugin, essentially a 1MS/s

Jay: you don't get a 'show quoted text' button w/Dennis' mesg?

Thank you, Mr. Little, for starting to fill in a blank spot on the map. At TekWiki I cleaned out the obsolete stub text and poor front panel image.

Sounds like it has fallen into good hands!

I've updated TekWiki with the better images. Clearing browser cache & reloading the page may be required to see them. Strange sidebar re the images: In October I thought there were better images but w

(seeing this a few weeks later) Glenn, Like DaveD says, lots of people here can help with TekWiki. Or you can ask kurt.harlem@... for a TekWiki account if you want to get into that yourself. Bac

...or someone who got the postage down to reasonable. Bravo, sir.

Yeah, that. But someone snagged it. Someone willing to pay for delivery by angel choir so I doubt they just wanted the 5A1xN plugins. Someone here, perchance? TekWiki would like to hear from you...

This "lot of 3" item on eBay includes a couple of 5A1xN scope plugins and a "liquid crystal driver" plugin: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LOT-OF-3-TEKTRONIX-PLUG-IN-5A18N-DUAL-TRACE-AMP-5A15N-AMP-LIQUID-CR

Old thread, but ... I just discovered that I never thanked David for the pointer to the Tek book on storage tubes. So: Thanks, David! A couple of weeks ago I dug that up again and read it more careful

Just randomly discovered this craigslist ad: "I have 24 oscilloscopes in various configurations. Tektronix,hp and others. some work. will sell all for 350.00" http://battlecreek.craigslist.org/ele/565

And a second swing at google turned up http://w140.com/tekwiki/images/b/b1/062-0861-01.pdf Of course there's nothing else I should be doing... pmc

Well... since you say storage scopes-plural, you've used more than I have. That makes at least three units that we're talking about now. So... I'll venture a conjecture that it's the manual that's unc
