Free two creative sound cards plus some postage - Page 1

author: Simon
author_rank: Unknown
timestamp: October 10, 2015, 08:28:27 pm
content: I have two creative sound cards on offer. These are quite old probably 10 years or more in fact 15 or more as they came out of our first computers back in the days when we were only just getting on board sound on motherboards. I kept using them on new computers because the early built in sound cards on motherboards were crap due to the amount of digital noise they picked up after the DAC. Whereas with these DAC was moved further away from buses on the motherboard and the sound was cleaner. Not used now for many years but working when last used.These are PCI slot cards one simply has your standard three audio inputs and outputs the other one also has a MIDI port.I expect postage to be £1 each to the UK and something like £5 each around the world.

content: Pretty much what the title says. I'm moving in about two weeks and I don't want to take this with me. It needs repair, it doesn't turn on at all. Not sure what's wrong with it because I never bothered trying to fix it. As far as I know all components, boards, etc. except for the chassis mount screws are present.The TDS540 is an early 4-channel digital scope (early- to mid-nineties). I believe the sample rate is something like 500M or 1G sample/sec.I live in northeast metro Denver, CO. I don't want to ship it. If you're interested, send me a PM to work out details.Thanks!

timestamp: October 06, 2015, 02:07:50 pm
content: Tektronix 475 Oscilloscope, 200MHz, 2-channel. Quite lovely for its time, and still today in its quaint way.Comes with one (1) cheap 60MHz 10x/1x probe from Farnell.The horizontal sweep wasn't working last time I powered it up 2 years ago. Lots of jitteryness when pressing switches & turning dials, clearly it needs lots of TLC to get it working well.I was gifted this scope in 2000 - it hadn't been used in the 5+ years before that, & barely used much in the last 15 years with me either, but I understand it earned its keep in its earlier years (it has the cosmetic battle scars to prove it).I'd love to see it go to someone who was willing to give it the TLC it needs and learn from the experience. I can put you into contact with Dean Cooper @ Syntology who adores these things & could help guide you through the rehabilitation, if you want.Pick-up from Dulwich Hill NSW until Monday 12th October, then from Heathcote NSW thereafter (I'm moving o/s).

timestamp: October 07, 2015, 12:09:52 am
content: I need money for some other projects, thereby two of my HP 8656Bs are for sale.Specs: 100kHz-990MHz, 10Hz resolution, -127 to +10 dBm (signal gets ugly above that), AM/FM modulation, no OXCOBoth units are cleaned, calibrated and fully operational.Only known flaws are:-both units have spurs at 100 Hz offset (and it's 200Hz, 300Hz etc harmonic) from signal (seems somewhat normal with these, bad PSU design, so the noise from PSU rectifier spoils the signal)-top unit fails to phase lock after switching on, you need to change frequency first to get it phase locked (but does that reliably, so no real problem)Top unit was repaired recently, 60-110MHz Pll board on top had Pll unlock problems (would lock reliably in some ranges and also reliably unlock in others).Was a somewhat funny repair, because in systems with feedback, you never know where the error originates from. I finally solved this by disconecting the VCO varactor diode from VCO tuning voltage and tuning VCO into phase lock with external PSU (quite fiddly job, but a good freq counter and that red Pll unlock LED helps a lot). I then traced the VCO tuning voltage to a broken NE5532 Opamp (U27A in offset voltage amp). Replaced that and the unit was working nicely but had considerable phase noise. Turned out that some caps on Pll board also were near death, which caused noise on VCO supply, which in turn resulted in phase noise on output. Replaced all of them with electrolytics and the unit was as good as the other.In the end I recalibrated both 60-110MHz Pll boards with the help of 8568B SA and my Tek 7904A.Want 440 EUR each (shipping is 10-30 EUR to Germany/Austria/Switzerland), both units are supplied with service manuals on CD and 1x N=>BNC adapter, so you can start using it imediately with cheap BNC cable.Please contact by PM or mail hiRRnzz1 (at) hotmail (dot) com (remove both RR (3,4 char) for spam protection)Also have a nice 8657B (no Options) available for 650 EUR, will take pictures if someone is interested.I'm still looking for an attenuator/bandswitch assembly for 8656B, so if anyone has a trashed 8656B and wants to sell me one, I'd be happy, because that would make me another sellable 8656B.Some pics to show them working (all units are synchronized to 8568B OXCO):

Like most units mine also comes with the 48MB flash module which isn't enough for installing all the options, and reloading/swapping option personalities is getting a bit annoying.If someone has a 64MB module but could live with the smaller one (48MB is absolutelz fine if you only have one or two personality options installed anyways) then I could also offer an exchange + cash.Would also consider buying a complete controller board with RAM and flash (as long as the flash module is the 64MB variant!).
