Another nice repair video from you, thank you. Thank you for teaching us! I am not sure if I like your modification to LEDs for the LCD light or may be it is just the camera that does not show it correctly. It just does not look evenly bright. A few back light repairs I did, had better results, when I stayed with replacement tubes instead of LEDs |

The camera was on auto gain and it was hard to tell the result from that. |

Thank you Shahriar :-+ . I was looking for a spectrum analyzer that supports harmonic mixers. I found E4407B with AYZ option that someone wanted to sell with the "LO unlock" error. Three hours with youtube :popcorn: and your two episodes about ESA-E and I was sure I could do it. I have other spectrum analyzers, 85024A probe, generators, VNA etc but I have not bought broken measuring equipment before. The same day when I ordered this E4407B, I also ordered CLIP manual for ESA-E and HMMC-3124/1GC1-4207 :4 frequency divider (I found in China). The first came E4407B. In my case, the divider lost its signal if the LO frequency was greater than 6 GHz. I also had to replace the M4T28B Timekeeper battery and the volume knob were missing. I found the battery and the gray knob locally. Today a parcel with a divider chip arrived. A large hot air blower was needed because the hot air from my soldering station could not warm up enough. The effect is easy to predict. The next ESA-E had :4 damaged divider and has been repaired (+1 for statistics). My new chip is not signed with the Agilent name (probably Avago production) and I hope it will live a little. Shahriar, you are the man! :-+ :-+ :-+ |
