I rather like kale!
I haven't had much luck lately fixing stuff. While assembling and testing the attenuator deck for channel 2 on the 7A24 the inner cam gear suddenly jammed and cracked rendering the entire plug-in junk. And I have no spare. The junker 7A26 is different. Oh well. So this plug-in has now become a parts unit so all is not lost. Let's see what else I can fuck up.

That's cute. 10 to 520 MHz covers almost all the most used HAM bands. +10 to -120 dBm great power range. EXT. Modulation - check. Glowy line ON lamp - check. And the plastic levers aren't broken. Just missing the hp badge on the upper left. Be interested in any more testing you do on it. Quote from: Cubdriver on September 05, 2021, 09:04:26 amOk, some TEAsing with photographic evidence. Part of today's haul was a little HP 8654A 10~520 MHz Signal Generator. It needs some cleanup (getting the modulation working required some switch exercising), and the attenuator feels like it's missing the proper detents, but at first brush it appears to be functional.

sin(omega*t) + horrible fourier expansion of odd integer harmonics which I can't be bothered to type out?
Time for a scope change. The 465B and 2430 back on the shelf. Type 503 replacing it. Sine and Triangle wave connected to the vertical in differential mode. What did you guys call the resultant waveform and the math involved? It's name slipped my mind.
Ok this is just WTF pricing!https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TEKTRONIX-067-0589-00-7000-Series-Plug-In-Extender-/274834224762?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l6249&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0Edit: going to design my own open source extender kit you can order from JLCPCB as that does chamfers and gold plated fingers for low price. Plus blackjack and hookers.

Plus blackjack and hookers.Damn, I am considering doing the same... The cheapest plugin extender is currently at 380 EUR (excluding customs and shipping). It should be possible to rebuild it. I could sacrifice a plugin for the greater purpose. The front part can be modelled with aluminum parts and a file PS If someone on this forum has one of those plugin extender puppies and wants to sell them, please PM me
