Very nice

Just a note. This looks like a TRF; no oscillator, no IF, but dual tuned RF stages. Just sayin'.

Warning that might be a hot chassis Beware. . Hope your using a isolation Transformer while servicing .

Radiotvphononut was resurrecting a newer version of this around 2017 or so. This looks more worthwhile, being a tube type radio 📻. From when ya take the back off, reveals a beautiful chassis. Just be careful, in case this happens to be a series-string (hot chassis) set. Having one knob off while the radio is on, can result in a very nasty shock, if ya touch the metal shaft. Also, be mindful of the chassis, as the above implies, especially if ya must work on the radio with it plugged 🔌 in, and on. Your friend, Jeff.

That was Woolworths house brand. Nicely made set good-looking fancy for woolworths.

Audition was the late Wooworths company's private label on their electronic goods. I'm thinking early sixties. Thanks for the good video.

It's always a bonus when they just work Ken. Liked watching you re-cap this little beauty and the clock was a goer too. It don't get much easier than this 😊😊😊

When I was a kid in the 5th grade in grade school we moved off the farm so my sister could go to High School. We first moved into a rooming house, mom, dad and my 2 sisters stayed in the small 2 room apartment a kitchenette and living room and bedroom, I shared another room in the house with a young bum who was washing dishes at the local cafe where mom took a job cooking. My room mate had a radio just like that, it was our entertainment, this was back in 1961 so the radio still had some good radio shows on the air in the evenings. When my room mate got drunk one night and slashed his wrists he got run out of town via a court judgement after they hauled him to the hospital to sew him up then jail because it was illegal back then to try and off yourself. Sadly when he caught the train out of town, the little radio went with him, I would have liked to have kept it. It was a few months before my Uncle came home from the Army and gave me a little pocket transistor so I had a radio to listen to in my lonely room, I had it to my self after the bum hit the road.

Golden mecanich watch . From Denmark . All mecanich .

What a cute radio and sounds ok to me. The wiring of the vol pot is weird. I guess engineers love to dazzle us with their brilliance lol

Hey Ken, nice video. What type of AM transmitter do you have?

Good job showing off that Magnavox. Solid State and a modern assembly. In 1965 some companies were still selling tube sets and hybrids. A side note, The FCC had just ended AM/FM simulcasting. New programming brought listeners to the FM Band. AFC compensated for drift in the values of the electronic components. The need was eliminated later on by frequency synthesizer circuits.

I am SUCH A FAN for ALL these old tube type radios. They REALLY exhibit such warm sound that NO solid state radio can. They were the Real McCoy of the early eras. Built out of wood 🪵, or steel. Bakelite is another GREAT 👍 technology material for radios 📻. I never have gotten over the glow of the dial lights on these radios. The ones with bigger speakers 🔊 had DEEP BASS!! Your friend, Jeff!!

Nice radio and great sound Ken. You guys had pretty sophisticated radios in the 60's compared to what was on offer here

Hello my friend 👋👋👋

The picture looks all blue and darker across the top

Tubes just love to cause us trouble lol. Also, I've never seen a power cord coupling to the circuit like that before Ken. Well done again on a great looking radio

It seems like the radio is drawing very excessive current if the B+ voltage is dropping and the rectifier is getting hot. Also, if the sound is clear at first and becomes garbled after the radio has been on for a while, most likely, the audio output tube has grid emission, and the grid voltage drifts positive as the tube warms more. Try a new tube. Also, check the grid resistor for proper value and the coupling capacitor from the plate of the first audio tube for leakage. This is a common problem with paper capacitors.

would you be willing to repair my radio?

How are you? I hope you are very well. You are an inspiration to me, I watch every video of your channel. I think you are an inspiration name right so I think your videos should be released regularly which inspires me a lot. stay well Weren't you uploading videos to Facebook❤❤❤?

hehe cool, for a second i thought that was a working radio circuit, and the sound came out of the speaker eyes. That would have been something else. Maybe in the future even AI powered so they can move around and talk. How could you be sacred of AI robots if they looked like that? They could teach us electronics.

Thank you Ken for your effort, but we want more of crt tv from 80s 90s

Some interesting issues there Ken. The bubbling resistor was cool, I thought it might pop. Looking forward to Part 2

One of the few mistakes not caught by Philco and republished in Rider's. Look at the two E cap connections on the parts location diagram for under the chassis called Figure 5. It is where C28A and C28B have nothing connected to them! C28B should have a connection to pin 6 of the 35C5 and a wire from C28A should go to ground. The wiring diagram itself is correct. Just like to vet information thrown at restorers just to see if we can realize that people made mistakes, even back then. Can't recall how many times I found diode symbols in reverse in circuit diagrams by Howard Sams over the years.

Wish I could find tv's like these more in my area, i've had very poor luck with finding any so far.

Neat that it has 1-button color that works correctly

You are Very proud to be the owner of this radio , thank you from India

Very nicely done Ken. A hell of a lot of work but well worth it. I thought the MP3 mod was also a nice touch. A great looking radio, you're to be congratulated :)

Good afternoon Ihave a question if you don't mind Where did you get the stand for the radio chassis ? Thanks Jose

A thorough job on this one Ken, it looks great. I like the diffusers on the dial globes. Looking forward to seening in the case

Great set

Looking forward to seeing the Zenith finished Ken. Good work there

They made plastic radios in the 1940's and '50s? I presumed their cabinets back then were mostly bakelite, wood or metal. Nice repair there. You tidied the radio up and made it happy again. 😎

nice repair, thank you.

Very nice TV there Ken and worthwhile doing all the caps. It should run for years to come. Great video

You get some nice radios in to your shop. Thanks for the upload.

Ken, I probably missed it on the video, but why a coil around the .2 cap?

No robot could ever put that thing together.

I love it when you change the band selector and it comes to life. An easy one for you Ken and a nice job on re-capping. Thanks for showing this :)

Good morning 😂

One more saved and it seems to have a strong crt. Well done. That remote is well ahead of it's time.... no batteries needed....very green.

woo hoo one that works. Great job solving all those problems Ken and a really nice finish having you on the screen wrapping it up. You're a marvel with these things.

Philips black and white tv’s in the late 60s did this very thing it was the lopt (or flyback) every time. If you can check your EHT it might be low. Replace the lopt and the black circle will be gone.

Is it the korrekt transformer ? Somebody may have had to change it and didn't get the korrekt model. I don't really buy the idea that the phosphor has gone bad... The whole surface ? But one way to find out is to hold an old clock with phosphor in front of the tube and see if it lights up.

Seems to be a low hour set. You think this TV is dirty ? Oh boy most I have seen has dustbunnies everywhere. On my way to part 2.

We all make rookie mistakes Ken lol, but they're good to show the beginners. I checked out Nostalgia and was able to download a schematic, not sure why you cant? BTW, you are finding some great looking radios

You gave a it good go Ken, maybe a spare crt will show up

Beautiful set, this one is in great condition for sure, and the tube looks in good shape just judging it by how bright it can get, too bad the camera didn't do it any favors. I have this exact model, one of the few mementos left from my dad before his passing, sadly mine is pretty dim and washed out, we used it a lot so the tube is just tired. Still very worth keeping around as aesthetically is very pleasing and since it's small it doesn't take too much space.
