Picked up the scope today, I was very impressed about it's state. It has been used for hobby works, so it hadnt been used much. Look as new, not even a scratch! The original manuals was still there, an english manual and a swedish translation with the basic things to know, and a dust cover with Philips logo on. Couldn't barely wait to try it.
Since it hadnt been used for a while, I powered it up with a "dim bulb tester", but nothing happened. I cheched the resistance over the main plug, infinity. Hmm... feared that the transformer was bad, the fuse, wiring and switch was checked ok. Checked the schematics, there should be another fuse, but I couldn't find it. After some investigation I understand that this is a temp fuse, I found it on the transformer. It was open. Bypassed it with a wire for the moment and it show some signs of life, but nothing showed on the screen. HV oscillator sound was at least heard. Turns out that a E88CC wasn't glowing, I cleaned the tube socket and, well, it seems that I got an scope of my own now! Gonna do some unneccesery testing tonight... it's like a new toy
