In the early eighties i worked at HP Joseph Street repair and calibration facility in Blackburn ( a suburb of Melbourne). A note came out showing how to use a HP45 wallwart to knock up a curve tracer simply using the transformer and a current limiting resistor. |

I had the Hamegs, but they were no where near as nice. Being able to drive a transistor to destruction, observing failure mode, then just backing off to recover ... multiple traces, sure miss it. --- End quote --- Anybody else here miss some of those old Heathkit beasties? |

Yup, built it in 1974 from this Popular Electronics Magazine. And...I still have it...still works. |
