So my father gave me this recently, hadn't been used for years. I brought it up slow with the DBT and Variac. Looked good. Went to work testing it with a 2 kHz 250 mV frequency from my cheap Koolertron signal generator/counter. The HP frequency read out was way low, so was reading the manual a second time when the HP sizzled, popped, and smoked. Found a shorted cap in the High Voltage section. Bummer!!!
Pulling it apart now to determine the damage and see if a recap may save it.
