Hi all,
My venerable old Tektronix 2211 is misbehaving, it's not showing anything useful really except mains noise.
I can get a lovely clear 50Hz signal on the screen (about 2v P-P) but apart from that I can't get it to display anything.
The only thing that DOES work is 'scoping out the probe adjust pin on the 'scope itself displays fine. I've tried a few different probes. I can get nothing useful AC or DC. I've double and triple checked the 'scope settings.
It started doing this a few weeks ago then I left it and it behaved again, but now it seems firmly stuck doing this, just as I'm about to test and comission a little project!
I have had issues with the earthing in this house, could this potentially be related to loss of mains voltage reference?
Cheers,
Ed
