The data wheel is dead.
Any 8566/8 specialist in the group whom I could explain the relevant details to ? ( e.g. : marker is not movable/tunable neither in front panel, nor under HPIB ).
I have ( not yet ) the Serv Ref part 1 ( RF ).
Thanks. Peter, PE1E

Just to throw this out there, our 8568b had the card edge connectors start to break, specifically on the interface boards in the rf section and power supply boards in the if/display, and weren't making good contact. The analyzer was acting very funny and erratic. Probably won't help, for what it's worth.
Thanks, sck0006. I'll check on this one. The flaw occurred during transport from US to EU. Maybe the UPS carrier people weren't aware this old lady had te be treated with care...

Jorgen,
Thanks. I will subscribe to that group. There, I found already that the lamp behind de rotary dial could be gone. Thanks,
Peter, PE1E Amsterdam.
