The 'scope in my cellar workshop is a Philips PM3305. It's been sitting on the floor in a 'spare corner for several years, so needed a clean up externally, plus some WD40 applied to the two screws holding the rear panel on, before I could unscrew them. That's as far as I got before calling it a day. I now have to work out how to remove the handle so that the covers can come off. IIRC the fault was in the PSU, but whether several years in a damp cellar has caused more problems, I won't know. As Mark, and no doubt some other members know, these Philips scopes are quite large, and one takes up quite a bit of room on my somewhat small workbench. I do have a small Russian 'scope which is also in need of attention. This is suitable for some jobs, no doubt including checking the remote control, which doesn't trigger my Remote control tester at all now!
