Some of these gurus are admittedly respected veterans of companies
such as Tektronix, with whom mere mortals are loath to argue.


I worked for TEK for 21.5 years as a service tech in 2 of their field
offices;repaired and cal'd a lot of scopes and other TEK products.

All I
can say is, those switches must not have been of the greatest quality
in the first place, or the gurus wouldn't have to spend so much of
their time on Usenet warning people against hosing them down with
WD-40.


Considering how longlasting and popular the 465 is,that's not a very smart
sentence.The same HF and LF cam switches were also used in the high-
performance 7000 series lab scopes.


Just sayin', is all. No disrespect intended.
