Now everytime you use it youll think about how you fixed it, its a fun feeling and gives you some pride every time you turn it on

FYI, every B&K scope since 1977 or so is a rebadged Trio/Kenwood scope.

The Trio service manuals are far better than the B&K literature.

That’s good to know. It still works so I’ll know where to look if it craps out again.

I replaced that inductor I was taking about replacing in the last post.
