Video Teardown, Analysis and Repair of an Agilent E4407B ESA-E Spectrum Analyzer

Bump on this topic. Any chance you could scan and upload the Schematic you are using. Schematic #E4403-60057? Great video, thank you very much for recording and sharing this. I watched it from end to end yesterday trying to repair an E4403B with an LO unlock failure. Unfortunately I received erroneous readings at the pretune circuit so we I had to part ways there in terms of failure. Pretty much dead in the water without that schematic.

Don't know if you're still needing the E4403 schematic but ebay has scanned copy

Our E4407B at work developed an "LO Unlocked" error and decided to take a look. I have repaired two ESA's with this problem, same IC as in Signal Path repair videos. But when I started looking at the RF Deck PCB, it's different! Labeled as p/n E4403-20100. The divider chain has different parts. Uses an Agilent 1GC1-4210 divider (similar to HMC862) divide by 2/4/8/16 I believe, selectable via 3 inputs. It's driven by a differential receiver/driver MC10EL16.
CANNOT find a CLIP for this one!
But the MC10EL16 has 0 dBm coming in, and -15 dBm coming out.
Looks suspicious!

Correction: I think E4403-20100 might be the blank PCB.
The label on the PCA is E4403-60107. But NOT in the CLIP.

Does anyone where to find the schematics shown in the video?
Can't understand why he didn't mention the transistor reference anywhere in the video? (”Thanks Twitter" isn't).
Thankfully I found the thread pointing to a EXCELICS EPA025A-70 part.
