One thing which I haven't
paid any attention yet, is the mains filter which is an integrated
block of some coil and filtercaps encapsulated.

I've been doing repair work for over 25 years, but until a few months ago
I had never seen one of those fail. Was repairing a Lecroy 9374 scope that
would run for a few hours, then blow the line fuse. Turned out to be the
chassis mount input filter. You could actually feel it running quite warm.

Glad to hear you got your scope up and running. If you don't already have
a operators manual, you can download one from Fluke.
