Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
More TE incoming. I just bought a Agilent E8510A LAN GPIB gateway. So in theory I should be able to access my instruments anywhere. Very useful piece of equipment -I could get one for a reasonable price some time ago. -Works fine for me but I have an uptime-issue with my setup (dhcp from my interne...

Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
Tony, going back your YouTube-video-history one can comprehend TEA in progress over time. :lol: My addiction has also led to the state in which I wonder how and where I could store/setup all my gear and accessories -especially after our move: I thought that would make things easier but in fact I exp...

Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
I have a simple motto, pack it in the fashion as I would want to receive it, it is simple to pack anything well, you don't need any skills just common sense. Unfortunately "common sense isn't " is a useful rule of thumb in all situations :( Most people don't have a clue how they would lik...

Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
[..] Congratulations to your successful move as well and welcome to the new mad house, built by bitseeker for us inhabitants. ;) Thanks! After all, I moved in two ways: physically (new house) and immaterially (teanonymous). :D Packaging seems some kind of rocket science, I do not get it, really! :r...

..follow-up to the arrival of my hp 5370B Not following the rule "don't turn it on -take it apart" TM I let the seal at the back untouched, saving the fun of breaking it for later: 20230324_5370B_seal.jpg In fact, this seal was one reason to send the seller my offer -besides the higher ser...

Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
As for our ikea-kitchen I can say, that we're very happy with the build quality. It's on the same quality level like other brands that can cost a lot more. But on the other hand you can plan/combine the ikea cabinets and pieces freely yourself and with the availability of single parts you can build ...

Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
It's only my second 5370B, that's not concernig, isn't it? It's always nice to have a backup. In field testing, our mantra tends towards "Two is one, and one is none", because if the only one you have breaks or gets lost, you're hosed. -Pat Pat, you just gave me the relief I urgently need...

Re: Test Equipment Anonymous (TEA) : Discussion and Group Therapy Thread
Yes, the joy of renovation. I followed your rebuilding/extending of your house back then. After all is done you really need photos to remember all the hassle and work you went thru. Our brain wipes out negative things astonishingly fast. But it could have been worse, if the previous owner had built ...

Hi fellow addicts! Like I wrote on 05-10-2021 over in the eevblog-TEA-thread my wife and I bought a house in 2021.
