Wow that, err, happened! Just come back to re-watch this again and you've been identified as having made a profitable video for them... Hope to see some more miracle working of your brand soon, stay well man.
I loved the interview with the gentleman at the end. In so many ways he reminded me of my grandfather. I would love to be able to sit and visit with him for hours. I hope he gets better. People like him are leaving this world too fast.
@@renekenshin6573 my kitchen 16 inch flat lcd thing is still working at now 10 years old....fingers crossed, had one cap replaced so far, one other is starting to bulge...the main living room 36 inch samsung was given to me as dead, scrap, but was only dry arced joint on mains input socket, not sure of age but probably 6 to 8 years...
Have a 12 year old Panasonic 40 inch still fine. But your right wouldn't last long storage in any condition . Modern stuff don't like been powered down long term.
This is the same model that my family had in the 70s. We kept it until my grandparents passed and we ended up with their Hitachi console. Never needed service.
The Guitologist told me about your channel. I remember going through old SAMS tv schematics back in highschool. Back when they actually taught electronics class. :)
Shango, friend, i was TV CRT technician por many year here in Brazil, worked on 12 TV repair shops in BR and one there in the United States, and also teach some tips of electronics in my channel on UA-cam, in Portuguese, of course, but one thing i learned on UA-cam: The UA-cam not transform you to TV or any electronics technician from zero. Only help you to improve your knowledge about this area, but only for who is professional or student. However if you want to become a great professional in this area, study good books and courses (i also sell courses) in English, Portuguese, Spanish, whatever in your language. And practice in the counter of some repair shop or in your own home if you can. Just this way you going to be a great professional and that tips in You tube channels like this will help you alot. Thanks for the videos Shango, keep going you channel is awsome.
Hi Shango066, I sure enjoy your videos on the restoring of old TV sets. I use to work at a TV repair shop in the late 1970s. The place was Grand TV in Duluth MN & they went out of business in the 1990s. I my self had a TV VCR shop in the late 1980s up till the year 2002. I find it cool & incredible your able to fix up very old B&W TVs for folks out there in CA. Up here in MN most every one has moved to the new HD TVs & lots of older normal working TV sets People have quit using & lots old Picture Tube TVs go to the dump or to recycling places. I am retired now & My Hobby over the past years has been restoring old Ampro reel to reel Tape recorders. The Ampro 758 I had when I was only 12 years old & the Ampro 758 & 757 were made in 1955 & 1956. Back in 1973 I was fixing it all the time. I all ways wanted to find another Ampro 758 over the 1980s & 1990s & never could find one. In 2007 I found one on ebay & I fiixed it up & restored it. Then after that I found more Ampro 758s & the Ampro 757 & I was buying them on ebay & fixing them up & I now got 10 of them & they all work very good. I all so fix & repair small Portable 5" reel to reel players to & some Sony Stereo reel to reel recorders. I fixed & restored them by new Tubes & Belts & adjusting them & replacing Audio Heads if needed. I love all kind of older Music & enjoy recording off them old Ampro units when I get some new old 45s & 78s or 33 LP Records. Your Videos are incredible & since Christmas time I enjoyed lots of your old TV restoring on UA-cam. Happy new year out there I sure wish you were closer. We have a lot in common in the Electronics world. take care. Jerry.
I'd rather see ads/product placement within a video than the ads youtube serves, I don't trust them at all. That said, this was quite the wild resurrection, thank you for tackling it! Nice acquisition video, great old generator, and a cool ol' fellow! Gotta respect the old guys for doing what they did with old well-built equipment!
That is truely amazing that the TV works, I can imagine the smell of the rat and mice feacies. The spiderweb HV indicators are magic. That part with the TV location and the old guy stopping and starting the generator is awesome. Excellent video loved all 74 minutes of it.
That generator brings back memories of riding on my grandfather’s 2 cylinder powered John Deere tractor as a kid. Very low rpm, “Jonnie popper” he’d call it.
This video has given me some hope. I picked up a boat anchor DuMont 304A Oscilligraph scope at a yard sale for pretty cheap. Got it home and discovered it had been about 8 inches deep in water, there was silt all over everything inside. But being afraid to power it up because of crud in the transformer made me set the restoration project aside. But seeing this old girl come to life has sparked some hope in me that it's a viable restore.
Wow your digital signal over there is worse than ours in the UK! Can’t say I’ve ever seen Anything as crusty as that TV set so for it to work it’s amazing.thanks for the 80s style max headroom moments on the poor signal digital tv too! Great video!
Shango...the TV set was so dirty when you were up close I thought my screen was dirty and tryed wiping it off...lol...cool that you resurrected it for one more show...I've been working on vintage TVs for a while now and appreciate your videos they've help me allot...thank you.....
I really like your old TV resurrection videos, that is what brought me to your channel. But the video and the end with that old diesel motor was a very nice surprise. Thanks for your great content!
I love your channel, down to earth, straight forward. I agree with you comments on the ad revenue. I don't blog never will. I am really glad you do as with others. What I hate is the effing click bait that has overtaken the channels on YT. I am sick of god channels using click bait to promote for money. I will support yours all day. You have always been just honest. Thank you. Btw. For those who don't know, to support, you need to watch the entire ad. Don't skip the ad. It's an exchange. If you want videos, watch the ads. Simple.
I imagine any engineer or dealer who would possibly have worked with these and still alive and well would be proud and maybe a little surprised this set is working after such treatment.
The Newage Generator, Stamford, England - I live 72 miles from there. There's a company on the same road called Cummins Generator Technologies. Their business overview states they make AC generators from 0.6 to 20,000kVA under the MARKON, STAMFORD and AvK product brands. So I guess they're still going..sort of.
I’m more into Computers than electronics, but your videos are so interesting. Seeing a TV in that state still work is simply awesome. Good stuff Shango!
I agree.. I am a listener to several hour long podcast shows on UA-cam. When im getting interrupted every 15minutes with OBNOXIOUSLY loud ads then a ad blocker is a must.. Now if there was a way i could pay to get rid of these damn ads i would gladly do it but as YT red is not available in Norway then i have no choice..
24 ads... 1 in beginning... a few minutes without then they start... after that it's like some are less than 30 seconds apart... like wtf is up with that!!!
great video and I love how they stil use engine power in places . this is another great video and I enjoy all of your videos thank you for sharing I hoppe that this guy is still around he really is spunky
The elites don’t want you fixing stuff they want you taking 2nd and 3rd mortgages, high interest credit to buy hdtv flat screens that are worthless in 2 months.
This set seemed to be 10 years ahead of its time. Unlike my comment... 3 years late. Can't believe it came up after sitting in a mine, in water for who knows how long. Valves yes, but I.Cs??? Especially 1970's early production stuff. Wow.
Fantastic video, theTV. the location, that engine, wonderfull stuff shango. I know he knows that engine like the back of his hand, but anyone else feel a tad uncomfortable with how close to that 400lb flywheel he was.
If anybody is interested Witte eventually was sold to Arrow. any if you are in the oil field you are very familiar to Arrow. Arrow engines were famous for people starting them on a pump jack and remembering years later to go back and check on them... They still build these engines today. arrowengine.com/en/ the website tells you how to change the oil...because they are running pumps etc.. and can't be turned off you drain the oil while adding new oil into the filter. An oil change w/o shutting it down...
Without an addblocker my pc would be unusable on the internet. The adds also eat a lot of badwith. So mine stays on all the time. I disable it just for certain sites. For example I am a user on audiokarma, and I disabled the addblocker for their site. I like your channel and I disabled it here too. I disable the addblocker for every thing on the net that I like, find useful and like to support even a little. But surfing the net without an addblocker? The aggressiveness of the adverts drives me mad.
i think this if it fully gets working shows how good old stuff was made, and how even in the worsetest conditions can still work, take note ppl making stuff today
whenever the tv source was lagging and looping the same sound over and over it reminded me of the scene from back to the future 2 when he's in the 80s Cafe the digital ordering screens in the movie do almost the same thing
Calculators do for people who add or subtract or multiply exactly what word correct for people who cannot spell your videos are very entertaining as well as learning a lot from them
Also thought it was hilarious when you started the TV up and went to the channel with the game on it and the coach that we've been playing with wet balls all week...I busted up man...you should watch that again...
Hi shango066, love the video. although, with all the thick covering on the components and boards I am still waiting for a smoldering flaming flicker from all that insulation thats covering everything thats probably about 300 degrees by now lol
well you did it you now proved that you can fix buried alive televison sets . now what is next on your job description . you have done almost everything all the best have a very happy and healthy new year and a very merry chirstmas and all the best
I still have ads on UA-cam since I have it on the PlayStation connected to the TV. UA-cam Red seems to be a a good option but its not available here and I doubt it gives the same amount of revenue as the regular ads. I don't have cable or any other subscription service anymore because of it and I do really enjoy your content!
Awesome video that old man knows his fucking shit I love diesels, crappy old electronics and use to drill water wells for a living so I really enjoyed this one man thank you for making this video although the guy in the orange shirt.... kinda out of his element imo lol.
You Can and I do. I use ublock origin For channels I like and support it's off,like Shango's. If there are a lot of ads I will let them plat through and then re-watch with the ad block on
We had a 1974 Magnavox with plug in modules. And instant on. I think the filament in the picture tube was always on. There was a switch to turn it off. 25 inch Console, though.
The first thing I would have done was take it all apart and pressure wash that unsanitary waste from the whole thing and then refurbish the main board to repair any corroded contacts. As it is, it's a health hazard and a fire risk, not to mention that it looks and smells awful. It's too rare of a set to let it sit in its own filth any longer. Save it!
I would never install an add blocker just because I know it helps you and your channel. Your channel is full of knowledge and you deserve any money you can make on those adds. How hard is it to hit the skip button anyway!?
I am aware of the problem and not sure who happened...
Its only 4 seconds of ad then you can nuke it. I can live with that especially when Shango066 gets paid for his time and work here.Gem
Thank you for your videos!
Wow that, err, happened! Just come back to re-watch this again and you've been identified as having made a profitable video for them... Hope to see some more miracle working of your brand soon, stay well man.
To bad the tv is in such poor shape i would gladly have given it a home for daily use if it had been fool of poo lol.
So why didn't you blow the grime out of the back with an air gun???
I loved the interview with the gentleman at the end. In so many ways he reminded me of my grandfather. I would love to be able to sit and visit with him for hours. I hope he gets better. People like him are leaving this world too fast.
I seriously doubt thirty years from now anyone will be digging up a modern flat screen in a damp sandy rat infested basement that will work like this.
You're lucky enough if you get one past 5yrs and still working lol
I'd think a LCD screen would be too sensitive to damage physically and from moisture
@@renekenshin6573 my kitchen 16 inch flat lcd thing is still working at now 10 years old....fingers crossed, had one cap replaced so far, one other is starting to bulge...the main living room 36 inch samsung was given to me as dead, scrap, but was only dry arced joint on mains input socket, not sure of age but probably 6 to 8 years...
Have a 12 year old Panasonic 40 inch still fine. But your right wouldn't last long storage in any condition . Modern stuff don't like been powered down long term.
@@andygozzo72 the main problem with all that is 99% of people would just throw a tv away even if it's not hard to fix
Wow that guy with the Mine engine is the type of Veteran I could talk and listen to all day, thanks Shango you know what we fanboys like :)
Jeff Jones Same, he tells something that I'm genuinely interested in.
This is the same model that my family had in the 70s. We kept it until my grandparents passed and we ended up with their Hitachi console. Never needed service.
I can't believe how good the color looked on that set! Amazing and also considering what its been exposed to for probably decades.
One fuse, and the thing works. Incredible.

What an interesting guy. And his little dog friend. I could listen to him all day.
Absolutely love this channel. Always interesting videos and a great sense of humor. Amazes me these resurrection sets do anything at all.
My parents had a Sanyo colour TV which they bought in the late 70s and it also had horrible greens. It had that same brown tinge to it.
Works right away, that's some well made TV right there
I don't watch regular TV. I watch your videos among others, who show electronics and help educate others. I'm all about supporting you guys.
That generator brings back memories of riding on my grandfather’s 2 cylinder powered John Deere tractor as a kid. Very low rpm, “Jonnie popper” he’d call it.
1974 was not that long ago almost yesterday. In 1974 I was 19 years old. But it's a interesting video thanks for sharing.
This video has given me some hope. I picked up a boat anchor DuMont 304A Oscilligraph scope at a yard sale for pretty cheap.

Great video!
I love that antenna part, I never knew you could gang together antennas to increase gain.
That brownish tinge... a 70s trend for sure.
Shango...the TV set was so dirty when you were up close I thought my screen was dirty and tryed wiping it off...lol...cool that you resurrected it for one more show...I've been working on vintage TVs for a while now and appreciate your videos they've help me allot...thank you.....
philco-ford is gonna use shango066 video for their new television commercials.
TV ad: Our TV sets are built so good that they can be buried for years in sand and be used as a rat toilet and are guaranteed to still work! 😂
I love it about the generator!! I am fascinated by old things like that.
"I wish they could make Candles with a smell like this"..... LMFAO
"I have a 2005 Town Car that makes a sound on cold start only on Sundays, what do you think it could be?" I feel your pain. Lol
Just drive it on any day except Sunday and you’ll be fine.
i love how you have the news as an example, i learn and uptodate news info also,.,.
in the USSR, similar thyristor TVs were produced until 1989, as well as hybrid ones. And all tube black-and-whites until 1992.
I really like your old TV resurrection videos, that is what brought me to your channel. But the video and the end with that old diesel motor was a very nice surprise. Thanks for your great content!
What a great story of this engine!!! Greetings from Brazil.
I love your channel, down to earth, straight forward. I agree with you comments on the ad revenue. I don't blog never will. I am really glad you do as with others. What I hate is the effing click bait that has overtaken the channels on YT.

Excellent comment, click baits should be reported as it was against the original YT policy. An image should reflect a frame of the video.
I can't believe it actually works!
Keep making more TVs videos l love those old TVs
We were a philco dealer sold those new. color really nice .have some older modules still mostly zen .mag rca.
I imagine any engineer or dealer who would possibly have worked with these and still alive and well would be proud and maybe a little surprised this set is working after such treatment.

At last. I've been waiting for a very long time.
Wow, Shango, your work is awesome!
Awesome video, this really inspires me to do some urban exploration and find old stuff
What a fascinating place and a charming man ...cheers.
Can't wait to see that little Panasonic TV up and running again. Although I have a feeling it'll probably work with little issue like this Philco did.
Wow, great ending sequence. Thanks for that and the video. Take care.
I’m more into Computers than electronics, but your videos are so interesting. Seeing a TV in that state still work is simply awesome. Good stuff Shango!
I never block the ads, I always watch 5 seconds of it.
To the Bat Cave! Cool Generator.............
I can't believe you plugged it in like that. Subbed, I hope all your videos are as crazy as this.
I love your work and yes i always watch until the end Keep it up
That tv is worth saving
It wouldn't be a problem with the advertising if there was only one advert allowed on the video. I have seen videos with 6 advert breaks and more.
I agree.. I am a listener to several hour long podcast shows on UA-cam. When im getting interrupted every 15minutes with OBNOXIOUSLY loud ads then a ad blocker is a must.. Now if there was a way i could pay to get rid of these damn ads i would gladly do it but as YT red is not available in Norway then i have no choice..
24 ads... 1 in beginning... a few minutes without then they start... after that it's like some are less than 30 seconds apart... like wtf is up with that!!!
If I wanted to see ads I'd watch it on a TV and not on here. 😡
Your the bet, I love your videos...
The cockroach of televisions! It lives, even after an apocalypse!
my cat stopped using the box after I watched this video. thanks
great video and I love how they stil use engine power in places . this is another great video and I enjoy all of your videos thank you for sharing I hoppe that this guy is still around he really is spunky
Absolutely amazing that TV didn't end up Eol. And solid state too
Doesn’t also help UA-cam is now demonetizing over content they deem “not advertiser friendly”
Jusb1066 This is what happens to ANY business when a woman is permitted to make significant decisions.
The elites don’t want you fixing stuff they want you taking 2nd and 3rd mortgages, high interest credit to buy hdtv flat screens that are worthless in 2 months.
You could sell this on eBay as “slightly used”!
30:05 well, pee contains ammonia so that explains the smell
Great end of the video with the shed of generador with history
'74 was the last year for Philco-Ford.
Pretty amazing that the TV worked at all :-o
This set seemed to be 10 years ahead of its time. Unlike my comment... 3 years late. Can't believe it came up after sitting in a mine, in water for who knows how long. Valves yes, but I.Cs??? Especially 1970's early production stuff. Wow.
Goodie, been waiting for this one
like the vids ,like the way you go to the simple things first and if that don't do it you know how to dig deep in those drawings ,
Happy holidays Shango.
Those Old ones From The 70's Wh'er
Dangerous To Work On Too.
Fantastic video, theTV. the location,
that engine, wonderfull stuff shango.
I know he knows that engine like the
back of his hand, but anyone else
feel a tad uncomfortable with how
close to that 400lb flywheel he was.
That sucker has got a sharp picture.

I agree with the 'run it but drop it on youtube channels' :)
it sounds like someone knocking on the door forever haha
i think this if it fully gets working shows how good old stuff was made, and how even in the worsetest conditions can still work, take note ppl making stuff today
sirmugman who are you talking to the Chinese’s ???
Selling the same thing ten times cheap is more money then one item that last
I miss the true, free and open internet. 29:20 She probably won't be affected in anyway, because her content doesn't go against the establishment.
whenever the tv source was lagging and looping the same sound over and over it reminded me of the scene from back to the future 2 when he's in the 80s Cafe the digital ordering screens in the movie do almost the same thing
Yes! The Philco-Ford...A Shango Nation holiday special.
Good jobShango
Merry Christmas 😁
Love your vids.. Still got an owl eye radio I don't know what to do with. Still trying to learn
Calculators do for people who add or subtract or multiply exactly what word correct for people who cannot spell your videos are very entertaining as well as learning a lot from them
Cool video 😀😀😀😀😀
Also thought it was hilarious when you started the TV up and went to the channel with the game on it and the coach that we've been playing with wet balls all week...I busted up man...you should watch that again...
todays tv repair men could not even begin to fix a set from this era
they are just card changers
I saw plenty of these SCR deflection sets. ECG 308 and ECG310.
Sure hope the old fellow is doing fine or resting in peace.
Hi shango066, love the video. although, with all the thick covering on the components and boards I am still waiting for a smoldering flaming flicker from all that insulation thats covering everything thats probably about 300 degrees by now lol
you should get your own 'parts washing' dish washer for the garage!!!!!
I believe Gwyneth Paltrow now sells candles that actually smell like that...
It's like those TV's you would see at a Westward Ho, strapped to the room table with some chain and steel bars.
well you did it you now proved that you can fix buried alive televison sets . now what is next on your job description . you have done almost everything all the best have a very happy and healthy new year and a very merry chirstmas and all the best
That old guy is cool. I saw this in an earlier video.
I am absolutely stunned that TV is working out of the (sand) box...
I still have ads on UA-cam since I have it on the PlayStation connected to the TV. UA-cam Red seems to be a a good option but its not available here and I doubt it gives the same amount of revenue as the regular ads. I don't have cable or any other subscription service anymore because of it and I do really enjoy your content!
Awesome video that old man knows his fucking shit I love diesels, crappy old electronics and use to drill water wells for a living so I really enjoyed this one man thank you for making this video although the guy in the orange shirt.... kinda out of his element imo lol.
I've been neglective of this channel
unbelieveable
Now I’m not sure but I think you can turn off ad block on individual youtubers or websites, so that you can support the people you like through ads.
You Can and I do. I use ublock origin For channels I like and support it's off,like Shango's. If there are a lot of ads I will let them plat through and then re-watch with the ad block on
We had a 1974 Magnavox with plug in modules. And instant on. I think the filament in the picture tube was always on. There was a switch to turn it off. 25 inch Console, though.
The first thing I would have done was take it all apart and pressure wash that unsanitary waste from the whole thing and then refurbish the main board to repair any corroded contacts. As it is, it's a health hazard and a fire risk, not to mention that it looks and smells awful. It's too rare of a set to let it sit in its own filth any longer. Save it!
