HP 141T, 8552B, 8553B?
 
I just got this setup and the it seems to work OK except the that the
DISPLAY UNCAL lamp on the 8553B doesn't light when it should. Is this a
common failure that is an easy fix, any tips appreciated.
tnx

Silly question... Did you check the bulb? ;-)

The bulb shows no continuity and my sorrily xeroxed manual is missing page
6-13 where I assume DS1 is listed. Can someone please tell me the lamp
specs and whether it screws in, plugs or solder.
tnx

I don't know why, but I just happen to have a 8553B manual on my desk.
The UNCAL light (according to the parts list) is 12V 0.06A. The wiring
to it comes from the Bandwidth & Scan width switches via the IF section
(which I don't have a manual for). It is very very complicated! (I lost
count of the number of manual pages it covered;-)

Ps: Wish I had the analyser, not just one of he manuals.
