  • @321reh I am sorry that you can't appreciate the loss of such a great Engineer!!! Just by reading some of his application notes I can see I have about 1 / 10,000 the Electronic Knowledge that Jim possesses, My Father told me once to always respect someone who is wiser in his ways ,,,,Jim is such the Man!!! Jim has forgot more about Electronics than You and I combined,,,,I rest my case, The Video was enjoyable to Watch,

  • @robertgscott1949 Engineer First,,Technician Second,,Please  try to realize that!! You should read some of the stuff he did,,Quite a Amazing Man!!

  • @321reh I am sorry but Jim's skills on removing the solder using solderwick leave a lot to be desired . A motor vacuum solder sucker would have been better. The S/C 47 uF tantalum capacitor across the 15V DC power supply is a standard fault in the 465. I started my Apprenticeship in 1965, fault finding to component level is not hard if that's what you have done all of your working life, other equipment as well as Tektronix oscilloscopes. Rob

  • "let's poke around the inventory here..."

  • A Great Contributor To Electronics,,I'm upset about Jim's Passing...It's always a Honor To watch His Videos!!! By the way He repairs the 465 We should rename him Jim " Mr.Tektronix " Williams. His Troubleshooting and engineering skills ceases to amaze me!!!( I'm a Electronic Engineering Technologist and Technician by trade) Thank You Jim.

  • Wow, having Jim fix your 465 would almost be like "Jesus Built My Hotrod." ;)

  • RIP old Tektronix Freak

  • I went into electronics because I was reading Jim App Notes since I was 13 years old. It was too expensive to purchase component so everything was done in my mind. One day I met Jim in Paris. Was a great day.

  • Очень жаль, грамотный был инженер. Таких ныне мало.... Вечная память.
