This session we restore a small brown bakelite radio similar to the last one. This one is a smaller more desirable model. Hopefully not much wrong with it!
For some reason many GE radios from that era used 7.5w 110v "night light" bulbs as a dial light. The "GT" tubes with metal base sleeves didn't need a tube shield, and the 12SA7GT sometimes came with a bakelite base and didn't need a tube shield either. The 7 pin miniature versions of the "All American 5" tube set must have been cheaper to make than the octal tubes, but other than being slightly smaller and more suitable for printed circuit construction didn't offer any electrical advantages over the octal tubes, not on the AM broadcast band anyway. The miniature tubes did perform better up on VHF in the FM broadcast band.
What a cute little radio. I love this style. Unfortunately no-one could afford these here in the Netherlands immediately post-war, and most of the gorgeous 30's era radios were confiscated by the germans during occupation, so it's slim pickings around these parts. Good to see you rescue these, even from afar.
When I was in my 20s I'd cut out half a dozen parts at one shot and know exactly where the leads went. Today I take a dozen pics and do one lead at a time! If the tuner bushings are just a bit collapsed but otherwise solid, I turn the radio upside down and put a few dollops of RTV between the tuner frame and chassis and let it sit overnight.
Hi Ron, It brings memory's back, it's a shame I can't get hold of one U serie's from the Netherlands back then. They where very similar, I would like to show you this one radio. They where deadly if you would open then up and put your hands one the chassis. I love your video Ron, we have the same interest's. Ron, thank you and hope for more. PS, EZ34 still there!! God Bless
As soon as it was out, I saw the socket for the 7 watt lamp. I am not sure, but the lamp filament could be tied into the string of tube filaments! Nice table radio! But I am one who prefers the old battleship radios! If I could find one in descent condition, an old Hallicrafters Dual Diversity DD-1 at the right price would be in my collection!
Was eagerly awaiting a new video of Yours and here it finally is. Checked almost daily for a new one 😊 It's almost 4am but I had to watch it 😅 The bad resistor that caused the distortion was a bleeder in the audio section that went way over the top, I presume? I do have some bakelite radios wating in the row. One has a rather big piece missing, any suggestions? And maybe you can give me an advice for a plastic battery compartment, where the batteries leaked an everything went brown and dirty. Thank You very much in advance for taking the time reading this. Speaking of reading: have you ever thought about writing a book, conserving your knowledge for generations to come ? I would surely buy it ! Have a great day and thanks again for sharing your knowledge 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
We mus find a place to archive all these videos for future reference. I do not trust this platform too keep them forever. Storage is so cheap nowadays. There are 112 videos from up to 12 years ago here.
I never had the patience to dig through one bin of caps, so I wasted money on caps I never used to have a proper assortment. Probably gave my lungs lead poisoning breathing the old/new solder fumes, but at least it was authentic 😛
Hello Mike Turner i seen your post and the picture you made for Glasslinger, He/she might not have appreciated your kindness but i did sir. Thank you Mike...
I did a BIG Re-cap job on a Pioneer receiver.......... and after changing dozens and dozens... I found that I biffed up and put one of them in backwards. Everyone makes an error sometimes.
Ron has an incredible collection of outfits. A few of his best are on display in his living room (actually his radio showroom), but he has one entire room full of his favorite outfits.
That's a convenient booklet from RCA that you used to look up tube information. Is there anything identifying on it that I could possibly look for my own copy?
It is called "RCA TRIPINDEX tube base diagram book. Copyright 1950. I think they stopped making them in the 1970's. I have never seen another copy of it. They were given out free back then to TV shops and such.
Good idea on the Ajax powder, 50 years of grime and cigarette smoke removed quickly, it'd have taken hours using a less abrasive method. The radio was broken and now it's fixed and will probably continue working for year's to come, time to move onto the next of which I'm sure theres dozens more of

Не понял, какой диапазон? Если на шкале цифры в метрах, то средние с заходом на короткие? Переключателя диапазона нет, а ниже 100 метров это короткие. И почему нет помех от повсеместных импульсных БП?
I'm from south Texas and about 2 months into antique radios. Already bought vacuum tube testers, signal generator, 5 radios and yet have no real idea what I'm doing. Trying to learn as much as I can before working on them. I wish I could have your knowledge. Would love for you to be my teacher
Fine workmanship, except perhaps the wood jam instead of replacing the grommets, but easy to say from afar (whilst knowing what an awful job that can be).
((% chance this will sit on a shelf as display, never being used at all, so the wood is a quick fix over trying to replace the 4 grommets, and getting the tuning capacitor back into position.
Great video McGee! I have a question that is probably not new to you but I need some advice. Here goes>> Do you have a starter/base list of caps that I could use to get a relevant caps stock on my shelf? I don't know what values are a good investment; like what will move and what will just sit on the shelf for years. I would love to know what you would get if you were just starting out today. Thanks so much!
Radios probably have a lot of 0.01uF caps, .05/.047 is also pretty common. For most versatility get 630v rated caps. For electrolytics 47uF 200v should be good for 90% of hot chassis radios, transformered sets will be different.
I love vintage entertainment systems. Sure, the pre PCB wiring is a bowl of spaghetti, but those vacuum tubes. I heard the workers who assembled the vacuum tubes did it in vacuum rooms, and the workers wore special suits that NASA later co-opted as space suits. Plus, the glow of doom they give off is cool as heck, I've seen some salvaged radios and TVs with transparent cases after the originals perished. Anyway, I'm a new supscriber after discovering your channel last night due to a UA-cam recommendation, and you were all dolled up in a retro dress fixing a TV👍.
Again, a really nice restoration! Sandblasting? I never do that - instead, I use a steel dish washing scrubber on a completely stripped chassis. It's some work discombobulating, and then recombobulating the whole thing, but it's sometimes a necessity.
*Thanks!* Enjoy learning How older Radios to Work, and What makes them Not. Have to admit, when it came to cleaning Case, i _Cringed_ to hard sound of Brush, "ajax", _and then,_ ... Wire brush. 8{| _but, what do i know_ *All's Great!*
Once you get hold of one of these cabinets with the time worn dirt and stains you will see why the severe measures. Cabinets that are not in bad shape do not get this treatment of course!
@@glasslinger Thanks so much for saying, after uncovering my eyes, i'm a bit braver. lol. Welcoming to see Bakeliet handle removal of those years, unlike materials used today. Cheers!
One question you probably never get is what will happen to you collection of radios when your no longer living will it go to a museum or family I know some of your equipment cost a lot of money this is a genuine question
A serious problem! The collection is worth MANY thousands even on ebay. I will donate the entire collection to the radio club. (HVRA.ORG) Trying to find someone that would keep the collection intact is about impossible. The cost of just moving it would be in the thousands!
@@9vdc500ma Lol ya beat me to it! The 'clutch' screw head was also the only one I could see that was anything like the one Ron had, as well. But even so, it's still not the right one I don't reckon, only the closest. I reckon it was originally supposed to be an Allen head screw, but it got mangled when the screw was manufactured.
Glad to see ya, can I send my Webster Electric intercoms to you,,,,?Lol I bought 3. Two. Transformer sets and a ac DC string. The 2 reg have 8 switches remote cable. And the other has 36 pair cloth covv cable. Ha ha. Stay warm and oh some yahoo took a chisel and mutilated a hole right on the front. Shit. More later. Webster Electric. Racine Wisconsin. If you have any early 40 schematics I'll work with ya on copy's. Take care. Smart S. ❤️😎🎶🎵
Do you accept repair work from the public? I have a very small radio that has been recapped and has plenty of audio punch but zero signal. I'd love for you to repair it.
May I get the schmatic of your getter flasher ? I have a 83 tube which "oxdized mercury" stuck between supporting poles, shorting half of the filaments, I'm thinking if this could be solved by using the induction heater to heat up the poles, thus maybe vapourize the "oxdized mercury". A thousand thanks.🙏
I can't get over how the capacitor wiring is such a rats nest. I've been looking at printed circuit boards too long. I remember taking tubes down to the 7-11 where they had a tube tester and a supply of new tubes. Buy the one that was bad and fix your own tv for peanuts. And pick up some Turkish Taffy while there.
Hello sweetheart and Welcome back. We the people loves all your great video. Thank you so much for sharing them with all of us hugsss ( P.S. I hope you liked the tube i made for you with your baby cat and the old radio you have. )
Horrible soldering technique, everything is just tacked on with tiny drops of solder, dry joints and breaks just waiting to happen, the worst soldering I've ever seen on UA-cam.
You are welcome to your opinion. You were not there so you could not determine the efficacy of the soldering. I have 60 years of soldering and have learned shortcuts less experienced people would question.
@@glasslinger LOL I was there, I saw the video, really really horrible soldering, if you worked in a repair shop you would have been fired by now, the 60 years means nothing if this is how you solder, very bad technique, all your joints will fail!
looking at the guy's gnarled hands, must have a good 20 years on me - that's old - and he's working with the speed & confidence of the young female operatives who probably assembled those things back in the day. Wow !
I love your videos ❤ much love from ohio, i loved when you said "get that shit out of there" when you removed the old capacitor holder lol and dont you worry another 20 years i hope that you live many more decades to come. My dad who is 65 knew a guy who stayed young by herbs and working on old tube tvs and old tube radios he lived until 100 years old.
Looks like an Arvin model 544 to me. An all original post war AA5 AM radio with typical myriad of age related issues. Lot's of good tips on working on restoring it Ron.
Love your videos and like to watch the technology of the old days when you try to or fixed that old radios or television. Lots of greetings from the Netherlands keep going on the good work.
And all along I was thinking: "Sheesh - I'm glad Ron knows where to solder in the replacements for all those capacitors he just cut out!" 😄
For some reason many GE radios from that era used 7.5w 110v "night light" bulbs as a dial light.
The "GT" tubes with metal base sleeves didn't need a tube shield, and the 12SA7GT sometimes came with a bakelite base and didn't need a tube shield either.

Those funny screws are called clutch heads. They were common in 50’s GM cars. I’ve never seen them in a radio. Thank you for the vid.
Mr glasslinger your utube videos are awesome my friend
What a pleasure to watch. Thanks Glasslinger, keep up the good work!
Glad to see another video my friend. Keep them coming.
Hi Ron,
It brings memory's back, it's a shame I can't get hold of one U serie's from the Netherlands back then.
They where very similar, I would like to show you this one radio.
They where deadly if you would open then up and put your hands one the chassis.
I love your video Ron, we have the same interest's.
Ron, thank you and hope for more.
PS,
EZ34 still there!!
God Bless
Ron, I sure would like to see some more glass slinging ! ;-) Or have you given up on that !??!
As soon as it was out, I saw the socket for the 7 watt lamp. I am not sure, but the lamp filament could be tied into the string of tube filaments!
Nice table radio! But I am one who prefers the old battleship radios!
If I could find one in descent condition, an old Hallicrafters Dual Diversity DD-1 at the right price would be in my collection!
Good to see you around nice work as always !!! take care sugar
Nice to have you back once more ❤
i want too see a new video make a tube❤
Was eagerly awaiting a new video of Yours and here it finally is. Checked almost daily for a new one 😊

I got a schematic for each one before I started (if available.) i’d forget location in the middle of soldering one cap!
عمل رائع استمر ياصديقي
another great job Glasslinger ....thank you so much for your videos
I bow to your great experience on radio restoration , but personally I NEVER pull on the glass when removing octal base valves( tubes).
Yes, good idea. I have ruined a tube or two grabbing the glass and rocking the tube around to get it out!
It is fascinating to see You working. Congratulations for Gold Finger from Lyon, France.
Mr glasslinger my hobbies are painting pictures 🖼 and listening to shortwave and ssb iam thinking about getting my Grms license 🤔
I always like watching and learning from your videos
I did a BIG Re-cap job on a Pioneer receiver.......... and after changing dozens and dozens... I found that I biffed up and put one of them in backwards. Everyone makes an error sometimes.
It is, or was, called a "clutch head" I believe.
Like your videos!!! Regards from Sweden!!!!
Have you ever thought of getting an ultrasonic cleaner? It would have less chance of scratch up the case than a wire brush,
One of the most useful tools in any mad scientist's shop. Lifesaver whenever you have lots of small/intricate/scratchable parts.
Sweet job, ✋73's🎙KD9OAM🎧📻
Mr glasslinger you antique small brown am tube radio is awesome my friend
Thanks for sharing this. Its really interesting
HELLO MR Glass linger i love to watch all your videos when your fixing up old radios iam very interested in electronics keep up the good work

See the restoration work on vintage radio of "Devid Tipton" and Carson's Lab... You can learn a lot from their videos....

That wax really hides a lot of sins. I should try it on my credit card bill.
Ron, you should get yourself an ultrasonic jewelry cleaner and you can use that for jewelry and for knobs. Works great!
