The data wheel is dead.

Any 8566/8 specialist in the group whom I could explain the relevant
details to ? ( e.g. : marker is not movable/tunable neither in front
panel, nor under HPIB ).

I have ( not yet ) the Serv Ref part 1 ( RF ).


Thanks.

Just to throw this out there, our 8568b had the card edge connectors
start to break, specifically on the interface boards in the rf section
and power supply boards in the if/display, and weren't making good
contact. The analyzer was acting very funny and erratic. Probably
won't help, for what it's worth.

Thanks, sck0006.
I'll check on this one.
The flaw occurred during transport from US to EU.
Maybe the UPS carrier people weren't aware this old lady had te be
treated with care...
