I've had a few people ask for HP 8566A/8568A support for 7470.EXE and the other freeware utilities I released recently, but I had no luck getting it working...
Good day all - I have recently come into possession of an Absolute Time model 300 GPS time and frequency reference. I want to attach an HP 58532A GPS antenna...
Try: http://www.tektrotom.de It may be easier to just email info(at)tektrotom.de and ask Tom if he has one. He has had a YTX for the 8566 on his Aktive Teile...
Good day, Heather, *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** ... <snippety> Actually, there's a cleaner option available. You can obtain, from Advanced Receiver...
Thanks a lot, John. It's definitely the YIG oscillator that's died. I had a look inside the module, and under my microscope, you can see the devastation caused...
It should be fairly easy to make an adapter. Two ways come to mind: The simplest would be to put a 7V Zener diode in parallel with the capacitor. Just watch...
Hi, my name is Torrey Bievenour and I have a stash of old HP equipment that I have been using for a little while. While I have managed to obtain most of the...
I have bought NMH batteries with solder tabs from All Electronics, but these are not good to replace NiCad as memory backup because in those applications, the...
Hi, I have a NOS 8094A - it has about 2 hours on the clock, and today, just after powering it off, there was a plume of smoke from the back and a lot of...
... Unusual, I replaced a mains filter in an 8904A sometime in 1996, as I recall it was a pretty standard type. But that unit, and my current one, had the...
I can't help you with the particular model of filter, but I can tell you that power line filter module failures are fairly common. What happens is the...
I have lots of filters from cannibalized HP gear. If you could send a picture I may be able to help you. An alternative you could place the filter externally....

There is no comparison. The 8662A was specifically designed to have low phase noise to be used with other instrumentation to measure phase noise of other...

You're both right. It all depends on the offset in question, and to a lesser extent, the carrier frequency itself. You have to be careful when you point at...
the 8662A/63A series was de-facto the industry standard for tight phase noise specs. when the 62/63s were obsoleted many customers that had specific...
Well, it just proves that I can be right and wrong at the same time. A useful skill me thinks. But I am used to being wrong! I am presently, for several...
Following John's very helpful reply to my request for info on the 5086-7246 YIG oscillator, I had a look around, and discovered that I have an oscillator which...
Hi, Anand. It looks like the manuals we created for these products are all available on our website - check the 8592L page at http://www.home.agilent.com/cgi-...
Hi, Allen. We do have the 8980A-1 product note on the site (just search for 8980A--the site's new search tool works great), but that's about it. This appears...
Daniel, I checked through all my files, and I don't have a manual for this one. I hope you can find it elsewhere. I'd love to share an electronic copy if you...
Kevin, sorry for the lengthy delay in replying. I don't have anything for the 86632A, and it's pretty far down the priority list. The best I can do is to...
Interesting comments. I suppose now I have to consider myself a hobbyist, at least at these frequencies. Hence why I don't have a signal generator at all, I...
