Tek sold off their hybrid division to Maxim, who decided Tek wasn't buying enough and they'd discontinue the chips (Horizontal output), so Tek did a last time buy. The parts from the last time buy had an abnormally high failure rate. This, from a Tek insider at the time (not me). Tek also has closed their repair department and subs it to 3rd party cal/repair, BTW. I have no way of verifying it, but it seems plausible. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany --"it's the network..."
