Telequipment D83 repair revisited
 

Hi,

Posted about this a few weeks back, maybe a little longer.

Is there anywhere in the UK i could take this to and get someone to look at
it (hopefully fix it!).

I know it's pretty easy for me to sit here and check the trasistors on the
power board as they're all socketed but quite frankly i have too many other
things that people are waiting to pay me money for to be able to even put it
on the bench and look at it at the moment.

My father keeps mentioning a place called "Stuarts" in Reading, but as yet i
haven't had the chance to look them up. Anyone know of them?

Might then possibly be looking to trade up the Telequipment and the
Tektronix for something a little nicer, maybe digital storage with cursor
adjustment and auto readout etc.

Anyway, waffling now!

Many thanks,
Martin.

Hi Martin,

Just bought one of these myself, and will probably have a go at fixing it myself. Firstly, I only have a manual for the D75, so if anyone can help me with the D83 I would be grateful.

Lots of issues with mine, especially with the cracked and broken clear selector on the timebase, so I will machine myself a new one out of clear acrylic. As for the rest. When I've got mine working, I should be an expert, so I will gladly have a look at yours for the cost of a few beers!!!

Best regards

Jon

Hi Jon,

1) Its is "Stewarts" in Reading that you want.

2) I believe that the Telequipment D75 is a "Flat" version of the D83 and
the electronics inside is the same.

3) If you need a D75 for spares , cheap!, then email me.

Ian.
