Smashing things1 from ohio

Uhhh i did this and it just shut off😮

honestly it wasn’t to hard to do and worth it!

Thank you Alan from smiling friends

Some serious "Don't f%*k with Cats" vibes here

First tube radio I worked on was a Philco. That thing was ASS.

Those Sanyos are actually really nice.

If you want a Lamp Hood to finish off your great restoration, let me know. I had them exactly reproduced and can send you one as a thank for the resto series.

Most 26 tubes from that era are usually bad as they don't last all that long.

The squeal noise is uncontrolled oscillation. RCA knew it was a problem with these sets and had a 4 areas to look at mentioned in the service manual (defective grid resistors, excessive filament voltage, antenna too close to transformers, try a different 27-tube). Also, there's a trimmer cap built into the tuning condenser assembly (looks like a brass screw at the bottom of it) that can be dialed in to peak performance. The hoods were supposed to be easily removable so you could replace the pilot lamp without taking the chassis out of the cabinet. They assumed that the consumer would feel comfortable lifting the hood off (it was held on with metal tabs), unscrewing the tiny light bulb, and then sliding the hood back on. Are you in the US? I can make hoods and could throw one in the mail. I use the same username at the antiqueradioforum (antiqueradios dt com).

yeah do! thats in nice shape, they are worth alot, definately!

did it work? if not, then whatever, if it worked then.. well number one you could have hurt yourself, number 2 these monitors are getting rarer. no this isnt a hate comment.

Yo it always trips or sparks near the power supply lol

That radio is in very good condition compared to some which I've tried to resurrect over the years. Your disdain for this radio is upsetting and it seems you're not experienced in what constitutes a poor choice of radio. I resurrected a very similar radio as this well over 20 years ago and it was in far poorer condition (someone employed used motor oil as a wood finish and they drilled/hacked the chassis to try (and fail) to install a phonograph jack). By any measaure your radio is in excellent shape.

Una pena, se nota que les sobra el tiempo y la plata. Por qué no lo regaló?

Gorgeous radio! That would have cost a lot back in the day!

Where's your video burning $50 notes? What a dipwad!

I am here becuase I didn't believe them telling me i shouldn't clean my psu but i just did before watching how to clean it lmao. i even went in and clean the board. now after watching this I am laughing so hard you deserve more subs bro

Could I have that when your done. I always wanted a AR88 my whole life?

Omg tyvm

I laughed when you talked like Garret Claridge.

ahah

I just cleaned my PSU today and now I saw that we cant touch capacitor cs its give a shock and that might kill us🥲🥲 I didnt know that. Im alive, Alhamdulillah

Very nice receiver! I have 2 and an RCA CR91A, Marconi CSR5, Hammerlund SP-600 and etc.

Good cool 😎

Kewl!

2:31 i think you're referring to cellulose nitrate which I don't think is the type of film this type of projector played. That stuff was usually on like 35mm film before the 1930s? I don't think they made 16mm films on the really flammable stuff.

I got the same model...the cost cutting has me a little concerned...apparently there are these pot metal legs these things were supposed to stand with once upon a time. i doubt any survive today.

I thought about not cleaning the PSU on my Compaq Deskpro EN. But the 24 years of dust and grime swiftly convinced me otherwise.

Your radio hums because it doesn't know the words....🤣

The beginning of this video alone deserves a thumbs up. Funny stuff

Actually very interesting - well done - dedication and perseverance!

Excellent job! Adding a new secondary to that small transformer was a great idea and should last as long as the current draw is not too high. The only thing I might have done differently (perhaps not) was to use a divider network of resistors or a voltage regulator to turn the 6.3 volt secondary into the the 2nd 5v supply. Ye, using it to power the pilot light makes sense too. Since you have crappy AM stations, you could had Bluetooth as an option for cool tunes. Anyway, as I said, Great job! :)

hello daws

Great set!

why tho

The 50C5 is about to go nuclear

You say you have magic eye tubes that always have issues? Are you replacing the 1 meg ohm resistor in their tube sockets? That resistor is almost always bad. Magic eye tubes are awesome when they are working. They are especially cool at nigh when doing DXing! Stromberg Carlson radio has one electrolytic that was replaced back around the 50's. It has an Aerovox capacitor, which was probably made in New Bedford, MA or Brooklyn, NY. They are rated 500-650 WVDC because these radios can have up to 750AC on each side of the rectifier tube plates. So BE VERY CAREFUL - HIGH AC and B+ VOLTAGE in those chassis! Those beefy 5U4 rectifiers, were later used as damper tubes in B&W TVs. The Atwater Kent, is an awesome radio and looks incredible! Each of those small capacitors you identified correctly, as well as the large boxes with the filter caps and transformers , are filled with black tar! You have to melt the tar to get them out to replace the caps. Enjoy! :)

17:02 The kind of music people blast in middle of nowhere in Bulgaria.

I watched Dr Who The Sea Devils from the early 70s where he makes a transmitter from an AM transistor radio. This is the nearest I have seen to recreating that.

I am Back!!!!! Sounds like Arnold S. 🙂

Most trustworthy guy on the internet

Really? Jay walker?😂

so…you use a hammer to unscrew things then. 😕 that shit was insta dead with a tap of a hammer

Did you die? (cool video btw)

Thanks man! Made my fears go away. Wish I knew you personally to Dap you up. Seriously, thanks for the information and especially the demonstration! I am a guy who is super careful about things and pretty hesitant/paranoid about certain processes I am unfamiliar about so I wish to do the same thing like you and put out videos on things no one has touched or gone over yet. Power to you friend

This isn't even made by toshiba, it's made by Orion

the fan has to suck if it's going to blow..😂

Spoiled brat

Jesus.
