content: Hi all,just doing some clearing out over the Christmas break. I have a load of carbon composition resistors of various values (the old brown ones with the sharp corners) that I have no use for. I rarely repair older gear that used them, but I don't like to dump something that could be useful to someone else. Do any of you radio/old oscilloscope guys have a use for them? If so, they are yours for the price of the postage. Send me a PM. For obvious reasons, it probably only makes sense if you are in Europe.McBryce.

timestamp: October 08, 2015, 11:57:13 pm
content: Hi everyone,I recently bought a bulk lot of 34901a cards which all had problems and I have slowly been fixing them up. I have the 3 cards working that I needed for myself and am now fixing the other ones and selling them off.The first one that I have for sale is listed on eBay with a AU$100 starting price including shipping within Australia. I have put down international shipping options as well for those outside Australia.This card had some missing screws in the terminal blocks and the terminal blocks were in a pretty bad way. I have desoldered them and put other terminal blocks in there from one of the other cards that had an FRAM issue (That is at the bottom of my pile to fix now). The terminal blocks are not brand new, but they are in pretty good condition.I checked the resistance of each of the relay contacts and they were quite low, from memory the highest contact was 0.8?. I fed voltage into all 20 channels and it could read that no problems (I know it is just switching to the internal DMM, but I wanted to make sure each channel worked) and I also fed current through channel 21 and 22 with no issues.I will have more cards coming up for sale as I fix them, but those will be more expensive as I will be needing to buy new terminal blocks and new relays for them. There are a few cards here that have ridiculously high relay counts and a lot of failed relays, so they will have all the relays replaced and the relay count reset to 0 (I can leave it if you prefer the count to not be reset).If you are needing a multiplexer, please let me know and I will give you the available options I haveThe first card is herehttp://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Keysight-Agilent-HP-34901A-20-Channel-Multiplexer-to-suit-34970-34972-34901-/171960941620?Any queries or questions, please let me know.Cheers-Chris

When I search and find something when I click it I can't find it. Anyways I guess that's for another section. My question is about the tips. I live in Canada, on eBay and Amazon.ca the tips cost are ridiculous and tinning paste. When I look at Amazon.com they are cheaper but say from Japan. So is thee a difference? Are these actually cheaper tips or the expensive one just way over priced. The tinning paste on 1 site is about $10 in Canada it's $40 something plus $30 shipping. I am learning and ruined my tip thanks and sorry in advance.

content: There are several amazon.ca dealers that specialize in buying items off amazon.com that are not available on amazon.ca, marking up and selling on amazon.ca. The extra cost may make you think you're getting a real part, but they're just buying the knockoff. Plus you get to wait while they get the item from amazon.com.There's plenty of real dealers around that will sell you a tip (today even!) that is real and not terribly overpriced. If ordering, abra-electronics.com out of Montreal is one I can vouch for. Newark and Mouser have them too if you need to order out of the 'States. But I'd be surprised if you couldn't find a local dealer if you're in a fairly major city.(NOTE: Mouser and Newark do the pre-pay the taxes thing so you don't get hit by brokerage fees. Otherwise I wouldn't suggest either. Unfortunately Digikey doesn't seem to carry Hakko tips.)(Two other hints: 1) If it comes from China, just order it from China via Aliexpress. Why futz about with a middle man? 2) I live on the East Coast so this might be different out west, but purchases made from the UK come much faster than from the US.)

content: Hi,This could be an option for me (competing with a new 100MHz Siglent SDS1102CML) . However, despite being a 10+ years experienced HW guy, I have obviously not been exposed to all aspects of an oscilloscope. Consequently, I am a little intrigued about the bandwidth of this scope. It is 100MHz, but this seems to be only for repetitive signals, whereas for non-repetitive it is only 2MHZ (!!!). At least that is what it's datasheet says on the table on page 3 of the datasheet attached (single shot bandwidth: 2MHz).Whereas I can understand the equivalent sampling time (ETS) can be different for a repetitive and a non-repetitive signal (see maximum sample rate in the same table on page 3), I cannot really see how the bandwidth can be different also, the bandwidth being...well, an analog thing. And I am really concerned about this rating. Will I not be able to see a 10MHz SPI frame with it if I operate in single shot? Sounds...impossible for an Agilent of this caliber.Besides, the single shot bandwidth rating is "conveniently" missing from the Siglent specifications I found...Regards,Cristian

content: It is actually a 10 digit counter (or perhaps that should be 9 1/2) - I have one and have found it to be good apart from the lack of a back light which makes the LCD display difficult to read at some angles. It does sub Hz measurements and can take an external reference though you need to plug it in the front. Plus the computer control works quite well.I used mine to test 10MHz sources by using them as the reference and then measuring the 1pps of a GPS over a long time base.It is a reciprocal counter with gap free measurements but there is no interpolation so it is not fast and I don't think you can do one shot measurements. You have to spend a lot more though to get such counters - I know as I've recently upgraded to a Tek FCA3100.

They seem to be going for silly money on ebay (£20-30+, outrageous P&P costs) - a region I'm not prepared to pay given the likelihood of them being DoA.If anyone has some kicking around in their old computer bits bin I'd be happy to take them off your hands. Not talking much money, 5-8 quid each + p&p, as seen. I'm in Edinburgh.Additionally I'm after a few ISA sockets (16-bit type). I'd be willing to buy a riser card and desolder them myself if someone has that sort of thing in the junk bin.Cheers in advance,Colin

Front and back panels are rather thin 1 mm aluminium.Hammond 1598 are another option, although a bit more expensive. Still plastic shell, but available with EMI coating. Plastic and aluminium end panels available. Not very tall.Hammond also has numerous extruded aluminium instrument cases and some sheet metal instrument cases, like all sheet metal cases the latter are not cheap and the former are not very large (like most extruded cases, since a large extrusion tool is quite expensive).There is also the euro box (made by someone for Donau and also sold by Conrad, No. 523380), injection molded ABS with ABS front and back panels. They cost ~10 €.For small stuff the Bopla Unimas are very nice, but they are not a regular Bopla item. Reichelt sells them in Germany (Bopla U 85/110/135/160).
