I bought an HP3596B off Ebay. I have a service manual on order. First thing I did was remove the leaky battery and thoroughly clean the PS board. It looks good, however if I look down to the edge connector inside the unit I can see it has the blue buildup on it from the battery leak. I'll save that until I disassemble to clean and lube the switches. At power up the self calibration comes back with CE-F. One poster suggested I put in Recall, Decimal point, Center Frequency ,8, when I do that comes back with Fail 1 0. Anyone have info on what the error codes denote? Mikek
