TEA related....looks like the earliest I'll get time to pull the vertical board out of the 465 will be sometime this weekend. I'll post pix of what I find. Also going to order a complete set of replacement caps for the PSU in the 2465. Just to have them on hand for when I decide to dive in and replace them.

Sort of TEA related. It seems that a high degree of test equipment addicts appear to be grumpy old men...I.E.....post war baby boomers or there abouts. I wonder if it's an affliction of our age or our upbringing? Dunno know the answer to that and not really interested but I am very curious as to what you all look like. It would be nice to place a face with a screen name. After all, I think us addicts should stand up and be noticed as well....strange.  :-DD

So I'll put my money where my mouth is and post up. Pix 1 is how I look 98% of the time. Jeans, t-shirt, work boots. Home, work, out and about. Comfort and simplicity. Fashion trends be damned I don't care. Pix 2 is fancy restaurant with my lovely lady. Yep, I compromised. Button down shirt, slacks, and shoes. I'm not a complete redneck and I do have a little bit of sense. Besides...she happy with how I look....I happy. Pix 3 is proof positive that you can polish a turd. My niece's wedding last June. The boss...in the foreground...insisted that I buy a new suit. I obeyed. Damn tie choking me the entire time. As soon as we got to the reception the tie came off.

So...post'em up. If I did, you can.

I think all SWMBO's do, its always us poor men who end doing the appolgising, even when we are right which is always of course  :-DD

I'm guessing yours can't see your screen right now.

You are correct, I'm safe in that sense as electronics and electricity in general are of zero interest to her, its like black magic so she leaves me well alone. Also of course she's downstairs cake making or cake decorating or she's knitting and I'm upstairs in the spare bedroom so there's noway she could see my screen  :-DD

here is a pic of another grumpy old man.

would not like this to get around.

kind of embarrassing to be caught fondling a non nixie unit.

That there box behind your head looks to be the sort in which seven segment displays made from sand reside, too...  Just sayin'.   ;)
