No, I have not found the HP hybrid (5081-3032) What a find !
Thank you for the link. I will receive a HP-1740A bought on Ebay this week. With this unit I will be able to confirm if the Hybrid is faulty. If so, your link will enable me to purchase the hybrid, and repair my unit. I will then have a spare fully working unit.
i have a hp1743a scope the screen flickered a couple of times then went out. checked the hv side and found the transister 939 4-433 gone. This is a motorola transister Any one know what the crossref could be?
I would join the yahho group for Agilent stuff and ask there. Someone or their archive should have a list of part numbers to OEM numbers. **broken link removed**
As mentioned, those HP hybrid chips are known failure parts and difficult to come by. I have a working spare 1741A that I intended to sell online rather than have it lying around unused, taking up space. However after reading this thread, I'm wondering if I should keep it afterall. The 1741A is my favorite scope of them all, without a doubt. All of the HP 1700 series scopes are fetching amazingly high $$ online. Even the broken/parts-only scopes fetch $100 or more. I was fortunate to pick up two of them for well under $100, the one being in very nice condition and calibrated in 2011. That's a rareity.

On the hv board a15a1 has a hv osc q1 transistor that is mounted to the case do you know what the part number is and it,s crossreferance is? I need to replace mine. checked votage going in and get 21v but get nothing out of the transistor when checking to ground. PM me.
Barry,look at the resistors R1 and R5.Measure the resistors r1 and r5, although you're seeing 12 volts on the DMM, they can be changed, as it did to me, you will see 12,5 volts, but, there will be a current reduction.Remove and measure resistors disconnected from the PCB.Don't buy anything without to measure these resistors before!!!
