Lester, I think looking at the parts list in the Service manual from Artek it’s a bought out all in one unit. If I recall the BOM has one line item. Have you checked with Walter at Sphere? He has the next PN in the sequence which is a Sony Color display. Or check with Newscope for a LCD

Lester, Might that be a 5372A?  I have it’s brother, the 5371A. I turn it on every few months to make sure it’s still working. I’m going to be away for at least a week but will look for my documentation when I return. My 5371A is on the disposal list as I start my downsizing. Steve WB0DBS

TimeNuts: I have a HP 5732A with a defective CRT driver board. Since this (A17) is undocumented (as no repairable) I am of course trying to work my way around it to see if the defect is findable. Any A17 boards loose out there, or even better, documentation? I see good H and V
