Default Re: Tektronix 465B Scope - Some problems.

Hi Bill,

The only place I can find to obtain a proper/original manual is the states and they are asking ridiculous prices for them, plus up to $100 for postage.

However I found somebody in Europe doing them on CD in pdf and guarantee they are 100% scans just as the original would have been. There are sample pages that can be downloaded. 1 CD on order.

Mine is a low serial number being 10874. Taken from the only label on the back and that being an RAF test label giving date of test, renewal date and serial number.

As for vacuum de-soldering tool, that's just way to expensive for my budget, but i will check again. Nice thought though.
I'm usually pretty good at removing components from boards including double sided and multi layer using a solder sucker.
They are indeed a double sided boards in the 465B.

Dave
