Hi
I am about to purchase a old 8590 SA, which is quite cheap because of this issue. This unit can display spectrum of calibration signal and all the other characters on screen, but the screen is full of snow and there are few vertical lines. It looks like the CRT draws grids the wrong way. Is it the setting problem or there are something wrong inside.
Thanks.

I think this old, out-of-support instrument is broken.
It sounds like the CRT, or even perhaps the processor board is causing the issue.
I believe all 8590 parts are no longer supplied by Agilent, so repairs on old hardware simply cannot be performed by us.
Sorry - but hope this helped -
