Hey!
as title says, i have couple, 3 actually crt-oscilloscopes with each different faults. My first question is, is it worthwhile reparing these, as they are after all pretty old, but considering they are pretty precious for hobbiests (right term?), repairers and by green-point-of-view. Why throw away if it can be fixed?
But right, the symptoms of these are as follows: last time i tested, hopefully situation hasn't changed during ''shelf-time'' in storage:
one simply put, puts out small amount of smoke, and nothing comes to screen. Old 'lytics in PSU section/other fault in PSU section, i didn't notice any burn-marks, yet.
other two has pretty similar fault between eachother, signal is distorted, no matter what div/etc settings are, but they turn on.
sorry if this info is small/useless, but repairing 'scopes is pretty new to me but i'm aware of HV-hazard at least....
Any help, is helpful!
