Hi all:
I just bought an HP8566B and replaced the battery on the A15 board - 85660-60209 - mention is made to "replace A15CR1 with a short jumper wire. Where is this?

Just to be clear, I believe you want to DELETE the battery (unsolder and remove the battery) on the 8566B RF section for SECURITY reasons?
This is done so the RAM memory is no longer battery backed up and when the power switch is turned off (set to standby) or the instrument is unplugged.
Is this what you want to happen?
If so, reply and I will find the section of the 85660-60209 schematic that shows A15CR1 and e-mail to you.
The 8566B has been out of official support for a very long time, but I can probably help you with this issue.
