Hi. I'm in desperate need of the service manual for a Wavetek 2510A
signal generator. All of the sources on the Big List have come up
empty. I'd be willing to pay copying expenses if anyone can help. This
equipment is owned by a publicly-owned cancer treatment and research

I need to test some antenna's. The customer wants them tested by
sweeping with the operating frequencies (1MHz to 3GHz) by using a
tracking generator, bi-diectional coupler, a spectrum analyzer and VSWR
terminators. The procedure is to hook up all equipment through the

Dear Group, I have recenntly been given a Blackstar 1502 Oscilloscope and
Blackstar Meteor 100 Frequency Counter. I am trying to get hold of manuals
for this equipment without any sucess. Does anyone have a copy that they
could reproduce or point me in the direction of where I ...

Please can anybody tell me what a Wave form Monitor vectorscope like the Phillips PM 5661 does?

I would like to use a Motorola R2600 communications system analyzer
for automated fieldstrenght measurements.
It seems like it's possible to control it over its RS-232 interface.
I have a working RS-232 connection, pushing the PRT button sends a

Are there any freely available GPIB board drivers for Solaris using a
National Instruments PCI based GPIB board?
They are on the National Instruments web site

Have a camera that uses USB cable.
What would I need to replace USB cable with a wireless connection?

Hello, I do eeg research (brainwaves). Signals are on the order of
10 microvolts (millionths of a volt). I need a battery powered
instrument to measure noise in my environment on the same order.
The Vellemans, Flukes, Teks, and so on I've looked at only get down to

Thanks to the advise from helpful people on this newsgroup I have decided to
try and get a Sencore Cricket transistor tester on ebay.  I am just not sure
which one to get?   The Super Cricket, or Just the Cricket. or the pocket
cricket?  I would think the super is better but I am ...

I have an automatic wash bay that is being shipped in from Italy.  I've
received the custom computer circuits already for testing, and they are
powered at 230V 50HZ and draw ~1A  X 2 devices.
These circuits are in a closed box and include a badge card reader, a

Help me !
I'm urgently looking for software for Logic Analyzer Fluke/Philips  PM3585
Few days ago I've received analyser from disposal firm, and floppy disks
were propably trashed. And now i've got a problem.

Do you think that the Huntron Tracker 2000 is good, not as good, or better
then the Sencore line of Cricket, super cricket transistor testers, when it
comes to checking transistors?   I have a Huntron but was wondering if the
Super Cricket would be more accurate when testing ...

I am sure that this subject has been brought up before but is there a
way to make your own high frequency noise to stop annoying dogs from
barking.

I'm in the market for a used spectrum analyzer like the 7L12
or the HP 141-T. One important use will be to make two-tone
IMD measurements on HF SSB transmitters. I am concerned that
with tone separations on the order of one kHz, the 7L12 may

I have a mains adaptor (marked as "model SPN 4079A") which is made in
the UK and which is marked ... "OUTPUT 12.5v 400mA".
I plugged it in the mains here in the UK and measured the voltage at
the end with the round concentric applicance plug.  It was about 17.3
