Ehm Ray, the ESR70+ does say it's a leaky Cap, you can easily test it, by holding the probes together. I had many leaky caps in the past, when I was restoring a Soundcraft Broadcast mixer it was my best friend. I'm not sure if you have an older type as me, but mine says leaky if it's leaky, that last sentence omg, boy 🤣
Excellent, I love your bench. I have a B&K 520b Stiller use it. 11 oscilloscopes, Maybe 30 multimeters. I have the same Peak Atlas ESR and the DCA 75 Pro component tester. I fix audio gear for the last 40 years, I love the tools. In my channel you can see some of my tools, I need to do a new video showing my audio disaster room. Best Regards.
Very nice! We all have to start somewhere so for now I have a Hantek entry level scope and a Koolertron signal generator plus some other basic equipment. I'm chasing down issues in several early seventies Harman Kardon receivers and a Rotel RX-400A and all of them seem to have bad output and driver transistors in them. Original resistors are in spec but I'm thinking now there might be some bad original caps on the boards.
Hello Ray! My bench work is mostly RF and I've been considering a GPSDO like yours. After checking the specs for all of my equipment, I found they all have different 10Mhz input level requirements. Question is, did you have to use any attenuators on your 10Mhz equipment inputs? Thanks for the bench tour, Dave
Dave, I had no problems with level. I don't know what specs you're dealing with, but maybe they specify minimum level. I'm using an old HP distribution amp, think I showed that. It's buried beneath piles of stuff.😁
Thanks. I met a guy who liquidates test equipment. It's the equivalent of having your crack dealer move in next door. The analyzer is a Panasonic VP-7725D.
