Please sign your contributions on discussion pages at the end of your text - you can simply type four tildes (<code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>) to do so.
Using colons (<code><nowiki>: your reply</nowiki></code>, <code><nowiki>:: reply to your reply</nowiki></code>) helps making the discussions more readable.
==Repair Reports - "/Repairs" Pages==
Reports of individual repairs should go on a "/Repairs" sub-page under the main article for that instrument, e.g. [[585/Repairs]]. 
A description of symptoms, causes identified and solutions implemented is most welcome, whether in bullet-list or narrative style.
Photos of the specific problem or solution will help others in their work!
The link to the repair page will be displayed in a tab on top of each article, next to the "Discussion" tab.
Information about general known repair issues such as components that are prone to failure can go into a section (e.g. "Common Problems") in the main article.
It is quite OK to have both a Common Problems section and a Repairs article [[7CT1N|for the same instrument]].
