Dear Group,
Nothing like a broken piece of test equipment. Going to a site for
emergency repair and finding you've got a bad test set is worse than
being bitten by your seeing eye dog. Just passing along an experience
related to the MSF5000 test set # TLN2418A. I have had a test set fail
due to secondary damage from being knocked about. You may be able to
save future aggravation by opening your test set and re securing the
speaker, which is held in place by push on spring clamps and some not so
hefty plastic pins. In my case the speaker detached, slid over and
contacted active electronics, which were not to happy for that
experience. If yours is not broken, additional insulation on the back
of your speaker would prevent this. If some pins are missing, some
"Goop" or the like might be helpful to permanently hold the speaker in
place.
BRIAN
