Troubleshooting the HP 5334A Universal Counter
Troubleshooting the HP 5334A Universal Counter. The internal highly stable crystal oscillator drifts after 2h. Monitor all voltages on the power supply. Definitely a thermal problem. The drift disappears through a brief cooling and then returns a short time later.
The problem was the C8 capacity. This must be removed after installing option 010.
