He's in good company. Well at least lots of company.

Watching those videos encourages me to have another try at fixing the Tek 7613.

I do have the BWD 845 for most general "looking at stuff", but its delayed time base is playing up & I need a decent 'scope (as in 7613) to probe around that part of it.

Sort of "putting the cart before the horse", as one of my justifications for buying the old "Dubya" was to help fixing the Tek.

As it turns out, it is fairly probable that the 7613's problem is in the DC supplies, so I probably only need the Fluke 77 & some enthusiasm----it is the latter which I lack!
