As a side note, I recently filled out a survey request from Agilent as a response to my recent 3458A calibration. Basically, they asked about any improvements that would be welcome on the 3458A. After giving them a small list of recommendations and requesting that anything that could be implement

Hello Ken, From what I remember of this circuit, R26 is for output stage bias. R6 is for adjusting offset. By the way, which voltages are high and how much? The 5200 is an old beast, expect a lot of marginal electrolytics, carbon resistors that have drifted well out of tolerance and even tran
