Are any of you familiar with the Beethoven test? This alone makes
the price of the instrument worth it.

The 3586 is yet another item where the backup battery was often ignored

Fair Radio is perfectly happy to have something sit there for decades figuring
they'll get their price eventually.
In this case they want $750 for them:

I ordered a BCJ-VWP adapter from Markertek.
A week and $18 later it shows up but does not fit my 3586B.
It is too fat to go into the connector on the HP, and the center pin is way
too fat..

There are three connectors in that style, the WECO358, which is
the standard US Bell connector, The Trompeter video connector,
and the mini WECO, aka the WECO438/440A. The trompeter video

If their AGC was better they would also make reasonable high
sensitivity receivers.
You are right; it is amazing to see how far off some broadcast carriers
really are.

I have one of these as well, interesting instrument. I used it with an adapter
for a while then one day got tired of that and found a nice BNC from my bin
which fit beautifully and got rid of the weird connector. It's much nicer this
way. At these frequencies the connector type is based on us
I think that valuable test equipment must stay original and unmodified: get
an adapter. Maybe you can find a cable with the proper connector and put a
BNC on the other end...
