These are sealed, and even if you could open them,
you don't have the tools or parts to repair. Check
the power supplies and contacts on the bias board,
but this is a common failure mode (blown power amp).

Has anyone attempted repair of said YIG Ocsillator sealed assembly ("A6")?
in the HP 8558B Spectrum Analyser? If so, were you successful?

My copy is putting out -32dbm (spec is +15dbm); otherwise seems fine:
sweeps OK, freq is right on, etc.

I suspect the 3 transistor amplifier inside the sealed assy.

Any suggestions?
