I think the only option for repair, out of warranty or out of repair agreement,
is 'Per Incident' which the KS website lists as $2851.00. This is a 'one
charge fits all' kind of repair price. It comes with a calibration as well.
It's what makes the repair agreement attractive as 'insurance' on

Surely the AC errors if any must be associated with the A2 AC Convertor board -

Why should this be a hardware error???
It's much much more probable, that this is a natural drift phenomenon.
This is 'as found' and the 'as left' report is missing, that would tell

I also saw this, so at least, they will have adjusted this range.
Yes you're right, the ADC is the A3 board. I confused that with the A5
controller board, which is the only one which had been redesigned to SMT
components.
There's no chance to identify a refurbished or replaced board, other

I meant to say, that the ADC ASIC determines crucially the stability..
and this special serial number US28032500 is eventually affected by the
AN-18 service note. So that may be the reason, why they claim 2100$ for
repair, i.e. replacement of A5, the ADC PCB.. and that had nothing to do

But the seller told me he had been quoted 2100 Euros for repair, so I
assume Keysight thought it needs repair, not just adjustment. Also, as far
as I know, all Keysight calibration do include adjustments.
I'd like one, but don't really have the money, but I thought the price
excessive.

David,
that instrument on ebay is definitely from the agilent area, i.e. built
after 2000.
It is really ok, and does not need any repair.
Obviously, this AC range is a bit outside calibration @ 3V, 4MHz, but
that is normal after some years w/o adjustment, and not a defect at all.
Probably yo
I agree with the thought that older meters are more stable. That was confirmed
to me by Gary Biermann who worked at Loveland.
In addition, with older meters, getting the latest (or later) firmware is
desirable and, depending on the age, there are 'Service Notes' that should be
complied with.
