Tektronix 2213 CRT Modification
I have a great Tek 2213 that was purchased form a TV station. The
scope is in great condition, but CRT is very dim. IIRC, I've read that these scopes had a slightly high filament voltage resulting in short CRT life, and there was a mod that Tek did to fix this problem by removing a few turns on the XFMR. Is this right? I also remember someone saying that there was a marking on the back of the scope or the xfmr if they had been modified. Well, I found a replacement CRT with plenty of life left in it, but I don't want it to fail prematurely again. Is this a user modification, or is it pretty lenghty? Any info on this subject appreciated. Thanks, Steve |
