Hi,
You might want to check with PTS about a certain capacitor in the power supply - it is a well known issue to them and my understanding is that they typically replace that capacitor when a unit is returned to them for repair. We found that the symptoms of these capacitors going bad could be quite variable and sometimes subtle. Its probably not the source of your problem if you have a relatively new instrument, but for older instruments it is something worth asking PTS about. You can get replacement capacitors from them and instructions about how to replace the capacitors on site.

Hi folks
does anybody knows, who does repair Synthesizer PTS 620-dual (in Europe)?
Obviously we have 100 Hz spikes in spectra (i.e 10ms spikes in FID).
An electronic professional checked the power supply, but this seems not to
be the reason.
Thanks.
Cheers
