When I was in high school (early 1970's) I designed and built my own alarm
clock out of TTL... (none of that sticking the guts of a commercial alarm clock
in a pencil case that get kids arrested today). Also built my first computer
by interfacing a TV Typewriter to a calculator chip. I was wel
My bet is was just a power glitch or a corrupted message that raised the alarm
and that your unit is OK. If the error reoccurs then you may have a hardware
problem.
There is an undocumented message that you can send to the unit to set the
allowed range of the EFC signal. Default for the Tbolt
Just a note to say that I bought one of these
prescaler boards for my CNT-81. One problem is
the way the board mounts in the CNT-81 the "in"
connector is toward the back instead of toward
the front like some of the other counters and I
had to make a longer input cable. Pawel does
now know this and
Hi
Ok, I believe I first heard this “the kids don’t know nothing” story back in the
early to mid 1960’s. Pretty much the same comments. Kids out of school never
saw a soldering iron ever. All they know is theory, nothing practical. If only

was like the “good old days”. Back then we put the a
When I got to a fancy school where they build satellites, I thought for
sure my soldering iron skills would be useful for doing all the fancy stuff.
But no! The satellites were built by a team of highly skilled ladies who
looked completely down on the amateurish skills of us wannabes. And I

Hi guys,
Your mostly-lurking EE (and, recently, also physics) undergraduate student
here.
You guys make me feel nostalgic for my young age of
almost-legal-to-drink-in-the-US!
I wish I can reply to all of you one by one but I'd rather not clog the
mailing list with more off-topic discussion. (Fe

I started at Tektronix as a field Application Engineer in 1987 and 28
years later I am still in that job position. I was not required to work
in production, but in field sales we are working directly with engineers
and technicians in their labs measuring signals on their boards, so we
are very clos
An improved technique using the 3.579(54) MHz NTSC color burst frequency
distribution was described in this NBS circular a year or so later (1972,
believe):

What sort of odd things might cause that?
It was weird: yesterday LH highlighted the DAC value which was around
