Hewlett Packard HP 8568B Spectrum Analyzer 85662A Display unit 100hz 1.5GHz

This spectrum analyzer set has been in store for many years awaiting repairs. The minimal notes attached to it reveal that board  “A3A5 is faulty (unknown fault) and that U14 1826-0684 needs replacement and U13 needs checking”. 

There are no data or RF cables supplied with it.

After doing some preliminary checks, I powered the two units up. Initially all the LED’s on the 8568B illuminate for a few seconds and then go out leaving just two red LEDs on.   The 85662A display unit does nothing, possibly due to lack of data cables enabling the power.  Neither produces any ‘hot smells’.

Cosmetically they are both in very nice condition for age.  When taking the photos I was amazed to find out how much of the innards are gold plated especially the motherboard of the spectrum analyzer unit which seems to have one side almost entirely gold plated.

These two units are sold together as-is, for repair or spares or parting out into about 30-35 boards and assemblies.

The two units have an immense combined weight of around 40 Kg  and will therefore need to be sent as two well packed parcels, hence post costs stated. You are welcome to collect .. 

If there is some feature or detail that you are expecting that is not shown or mentioned, or you have any question on this item, please ask BEFORE bidding.

COLLECTION

The buyer is welcome to collect by appointment. We’re based near J16 on the M1 / Northants.

POST / SHIPPING / PACKING

If dispatched it will be sent in a new oversized double-walled box with plenty of bubble wrap and padding and additional protection as needed depending on size and weight.   It will be sent out within 2 working days of cleared payment.

All items sent out will be by a tracked post/courier service needing a signature on delivery, the exact service depends on your location. The tracking information will be supplied once enroute.

At the buyers request I will send items using FEDEX or DHL for the ultimate delivery method with the buyer paying the additional costs.

Some items are very large and heavy and beyond our couriers weight limit, or physical strength of the boxing solutions we use, and in such cases this will be stated in the listing along with collection or other delivery options.

The shipping cost quoted is for “post and packaging costs” and reflects the fact that this item will be well packed using new materials in a sensible double walled box with masses of bubble and yards of wide poly-tape, and additional padding, with larger items often taking 20 to 40 minutes to pack and a further half hour for the round trip delivery to the couriers.

Please do NOT enter a bid on this item if you intend to quibble the cost of P&P after winning it. I will not send items in minimised packaging for the outright cheapest slowest method. Experience tells me this is a false economy …

SHIPPING TO REMOTE LOCATIONS

If you live in some far flung part of the World such as on an island, on a remote mountain top, or in a hollowed out volcano in the Pacific, then please let me know your location before you bid so I can obtain a quote for the likely increased costs of shipping. We normally ship via couriers like UPS or PF48 and some do have ‘remote location surcharges’ for certain out of the way places. Bear in mind that islands away from the mainland usually need additional shipping/air-fees. If in doubt, email me.

COMBINING MULTIPLE ITEMS / POST REDUCTIONS .. within limits.

I’m happy to combine items *where practical* to reduce postage/packaging costs, such as a large item along with a smaller item, but this won’t work for two very heavy items which will still need two packages due to their combined weight exceeding courier limits, or exceeding safe packaging limits.  For example it would be very unwise to try and box up two x 20kg devices in one large strong box to save money, when in fact the combined weight of 40kg would exceed all sensible limits and likely break the boxing no matter how well its wrapped, leading to damage and frustration. At this weight I would insist on (1) two packages, or (2) palletising, or (3) collection in person (4) custom delivery on a mileage basis if agreed in writing before you enter you bid.  If you are in doubt about this please email BEFORE bidding on two or more items.

PAYMENT

Item to be paid for by paypal, wire transfer or cash on collection within 48 hrs of auction end. If not completed within that time, I will either offer it to the 2nd highest bidder, or relist it and leave appropriate feedback.

PROBLEMS POST SALE
