Found a book on using a scope for tube radios...
« on: April 03, 2017, 12:52:28 am »
The question of whether or not a guide for using a scope comes up often. I found this today. Might be useful for some...

http://www.cfp-radio.com/documentations/Sylvania-scope.pdf  --5MB PDF file

I have not read through it yet.

Now that's from the beginning of time :icon_biggrin:

The figures are handy for a newbie, cut them out, tape them on the wall
once you get to analysis using lissajous patterns you have graduated!!

Great find! I already have "Servicing radio and Television with a Vacuum Tube Voltmeter" by Sylvania Electric Products.  Just Google the title & download the PDF.  Another treasure trove of info: http://www.tubebooks.org/technical_books_online.htm  I can recommend:  http://www.tubebooks.org/Books/intro_rider_VTVM.pdf

Thanks for cleaning up that link. I posted that from my phone which is always an adventure...

And just to clarify for everyone, the book in the link is in English.
