Thanks for mention! bandersentv is also one of my favorites. I get into early solid state, radios and color tv a bit more than Bob. Defiantly resurrect the tabletop...
What do you mean one of. Mr Carlson's Lab is exceptional. I have restored Electronic equipment as a hobby for many, many years and I was originally a qualified Eletronics Engineer. I have learnt more from this channel than anything I ever studied. I have revisited some of my restorations after watching his, basically just to do better. After his Heathkit VTVM restoration I purchased one almost exactly the same and restored it from the ground up. I am very pleased with the result. Hats off to Mr Carlson, simply the best.
I am very much looking forward to the CRT television resurrections. There are very few people who do these and watching brings back good memories of the 70s when I used to repair TVs in the UK.
You go man! I thought the ancient electronics was literally a thing of the past until i found these utube channels reviving the technology. When i was in teck school they was still teaching tube theories. I had dragged a hi school friend of mine into electronics with me into classes and we both did very well.. But unfortunately he past about 10 years ago 😑. You look so much like him, it is unbelievable.. It puts me right back in the 70,s in teck school so cool! Thank you ! Mr. Carlson
Thanks for the mention. That's the earliest Stromberg Carlson radio I've ever seen. Really looking forward to it. You and shango066 have been a positive influence to up my content quality and keep it entertaining.
Shango is definitely a must watch channel for me. He has an inherent knowledge of troubleshooting & resurrecting "Vacuum Bulb" TV's, and does it in a way to make it interesting, as well as being informative. He also delves into other devices, transistor radio's, some audio equipment, as well as having experience with speakers / sound reinforcement equipment.
Yah, Shango is incredible, I've seen him rescue TV sets that were so far gone, probably even the dump wouldn't take them! I used to fiddle with TV sets found in the garbage 50 years ago as a kid and I learned most everything I know about electronics from battling those things. Today I would find it hard to expend much work on them since there is nothing to be received on them and I don't watch TV anyway. I will say that having videos of other people hauling and lifting and troubleshooting these things means I don't have to succumb to my innate compulsion to work on them, and for that I am very grateful.
Shango is an advanced tech. Sometimes his design knowledge could use some intuition or reach. I like his channel and he makes me look like an amateur. Mr. Carlson is wizard..and a teacher..very few like that in my observation so far.
@@anandarochisha Absolutely. Although I suspect I will be waiting a long time for Mr. Carlson to load up a Time Domain Reflectometer with fireworks and blow it to smithereens!
I was going to mention Shango to you! He's a classic. It's therapy just listening to him. My older brother became a G.E. engineer in the US. Shared a bedroom full of his electronics in the UK. I got into multi band radios at a very young age. All the radio wavelengths were truly alive then, especially in Europe. Love your show.
Mr Paul Carlson, your Channel is top of the line for electronic repair and restorations, your number one on my list. I have not found any other repair channel that comes close to the quality and education of your work. Looking forward to you doing more variety of electronic restorations. Bandersentv and shango066 are very good channels too, I watch shango066 channel a lot, for we like his sense of humor and his way of working on things that makes it interesting. I recently started subscribing to my favorite UA-cam channels including this one.
Mr Carlson, you are still the best. I love watching you and will definitely take your advice on the other UA-cam dudes. I’m finally about to start a restore project on an old pre amp. It has been sitting for about a year as a “carrot” for me when life slowed down. That never happens, so I finally unscrewed the one of eight screws left holding the cover to the chassis last night and looked inside. Sadly it’s a little worse then I was assuming but that just means more fun. Lol My apologies for droning on. I just wanted to give you some thanks. Thanks!
Honestly. It's you, Mend it mark, and CuriousMarc that have gave me the motivation to see a project to completion. To not put broken schitt to the back of the room for later diag, but to put it on the slab and actually fix it. Diag, order parts, and fix it.
Nice shoutout for Bob Andersen! Would be great if you were able to drive up his subscribers! I've been watching his videos religiously for years! Can't wait for you to do some TV's, Paul! Love all of your content as well. Everything you've ever done is amazing!
I enjoy all of your restorations, and will watch your videos regardless of what you're restoring. I learn something new from nearly every video I watch on this channel, and it's always a pleasure to watch someone as meticulous as you work. I think it's pretty important for you to restore the devices you want to restore in order to stave off burnout. All that said, I do look forward to seeing the Mr. Carlson Touch (TM) applied to a TV.
Absolutely love it!!!! You should do a segment like they did on American pickers. You going through a barn etc. and discovering these electronic relics. Thus adding another side to your restoration 😊👏👏👍🇨🇦
I'm really excited to see your restoration videos on barn find and other antique consumer electronics. I find these to be much more interesting than the high end receiver and test equipment projects.
I've told you before, and will again how much I really enjoy watching your channel. Also, I'm looking forward to watching your TV restorations. I remember fixing my parents B&W set as a teen, before I had any 'official' electronics education; was just a bad tube. Sure wish I had that set now. I will definitely look at the other two channels you mentioned. Figure if you recommend them, they must be good. Fixing anything the 'right' way is the only way to do it! Thanks Paul!!
Great video Mr Carlson sir I really like old tvs wow great collection. I searched many many other electronic youtube channels but your videos are wonderful really like your videos sir you are awesome. thanks sir ❤❤
The detail and in depth knowledge of electronics is just fascinating to watch. I think most of us almost view electronics as wizardry but you and the other few channels that do these restorations pull back the veil and make it enjoyable to learn how it all works. Seeing how all these old (sometimes very old) tube devices work and how they operate on the same principle as today's electronics, albeit with the components of the time, is enlightening. Today's smart phones have 15 billion or more transistors in them so seeing how electronics worked with tubes is very enjoyable and satisfying to see. That the person you got that tv from watched the first time The Beatles were on tv is great stuff.
Shango's description of a 6V radio's vibrator that is making a lot of buzzing but not activating the associated circuits: "Someone's having a good time in there, but no climax!". LMAO. I would get along real good with that dude IRL. Enjoying your channel as always, Mr Carlson!
Wow Paul you have so much interesting work ahead of you! When you finally fix one of these TVs you will need a converter box to receive off the air digital TV. Imagine watching an old classic TV show on a restored analog TV via a digital converter....over 50 years of technology coming together. I'm always impressed with the amount of inventory you have of tubes and parts. Amazing lab.
Awesome, just awesome Mr C. Seems you have enough upcoming projects to keep busy far into the future. The collection of tubes is incredible, looks like a warehouse full. TV restoration/repair episodes will be a welcome addition to the channel, I grew up with B&W and remember the first color version my father brought home as well as the "TV repair man" showing up with a suitcase full of tubes and parts...the good old days. Thanks for the update on the channel, going to be a great ride sir. 73s KC5NEX
Wow you got a lot of nice electronic repairs coming in the future Paul. Very envious of all that space to store everything. Bob Anderson, Shango, glasslinger and don't forget xraytonyb are my favorites. All have a kind of specialty in their own way of going about electronic restorations and repairs. Shh, big secret here, you are still my favorite!
Looking forward to the Atwater, Kent, radio video. I have one of these myself and would love to see it work again. I also have the matching speaker as well.
Hi Paul, very much looking forward to the TV restorations. I'd really like to see how you would "rejuvenate" and ageing colour CRT at some point. I don't really understand what is happening in this process. As always, an excellent and informative video with "broadcast" superb sound and vision quality.
I’m very excited for the Atwater Kent. I found a model 40 last summer, with no speaker, it was claimed it worked the last time it was hooked up 10 years previous. The power supply unit looks like the tar has been melted at some point and there’s an end of a newer looking circuit board protruding from the tar with some newer leads running to the PSU board. It appears someone has been in there to re-cap it at some time, quality of work, who knows. I was lucky enough to find a model E2 speaker shortly after at an antiques mall. I powered it up with a dim bulb setup, just a short wire for the antenna and it received several stations from the area, sounded great. It’s nice to be starting with a working unit. Anyway, I love your channel and I’m greatly looking forward to the future videos.
Hello Paul, Your explanation of circuit troubleshooting is top shelf in my book. This is what I enjoy so much about your videos and I appreciate your references to other you tubers. I recently discovered Curiousmarc. He mainly centers around vintage computer repairs and test equipment but his troubleshooting is in deft which is what pulled me into his videos. He and his team reverse engineering ancient equipment and is so interesting. Keep up the great work and I look forward to more of your videos.
Interesting group of future projects. I am surprised that you don't have an electrostatic set in your queue for restoration, they are fascinating little sets that were only in the market for a few years in the late 1940's to early 1950's. It's going to be interesting seeing the Marconi restoration, that is a manufacturer that is seldom seen here in the US. Glad to see you plug Bob Anderson's channel, he is extremely knowledgeable and was who inspired me to start working on vintage televisions.
Not that I'm hoping you go anywhere anytime soon -- quite the opposite, in fact -- but please don't let that collection end up in the landfill. 😅Looking forward to the goodies. 👍
Whatever you do, I am certain that it will be very interesting. I have noticed that most of the links you provide, as well as most of the channels in your UA-cam subscriptions tab I am subscribed to as well. Again, thanks for all you do here. It is quite excellent.
Love this stuff, takes me back to the 1960's, being little kid hanging out with my grandfather a "monkey wards" serviceman that could fix anything in the catalog from mule harness to color TV 's.
Hey Paul wow it looks like it is going to be so great to see the new restorations and repairs videos coming up. I will be so overjoyed to watch them. I love to watch your channel and I do watch Bob Anderson and shango too. Always a great relaxing pleasure to watch. Sure beats prime time tv. I don't watch much else anymore only the you tube restoration is worth watch. Really nice since I don't have the resources myself. Sure make my day and time worth watching and learning. Super thanks Mike 73s
I watched the Apollo moon landings on a black and white shuttered television as a child. Sometimes the doors were practical because they could be used to shade the sun during the day.
I would think the TV's are doable as long as they have an intact flyback. But if they don't it can become a can of worms. Good luck with all of them. Of course we wish you the best. As a very young lad I worked in a TV warranty repair mill in Denver Co. I literally fixed a TV rang the bell and a fella brought me the next one. Great experience for a while.
So much nice vintage stuff to tinker with. More than enough to last you five lifetimes! That's gonna be a fun ride for sure :) Your channel is one of the main inspirations for mine, and I always learn some new stuff watching you. Will stay a patreon as long as I can! I'm shy to ask for subscriptions and don't do that on my channel... maybe that's why I have so few of them? Ha.
I have always wondered how you stored your vacuum tubes and marveled at how quickly you found the one needed, usually within the few seconds from one scene to the next ;-). How do you locate/catalog what you need/have?
I'm excited to see the Atwater Kent video. I have the exact same radio, minus the speaker. I also have a mint Atwater Kent model 70 console, L type chassis
I will also mention one other radio repair channel, and that is TRX Bench. He is my favorite besides your channel Paul. He is very very thorough when he explains what he is doing, how he is finding the faulty component, and so on. He repairs very often amateur radio stations, and that is very helpful if you have a similar radio that doesn't work correctly. I will definitely check out the two other channels you spoke about, Paul. Take care 73.
You sir are a better man than I, if after several attempts trying to get an electronic device to work properly, if it still gives me trouble, it goes in the electronics recycle bin, minus the tubes. Lol
It's an addiction!! Been buying more of these American 5 and earlier radios!! All to repair. Also several higher quality ones with the transformers so can't wait to get to them.. Thanks for the other youtube suggestions. Paul you also have a great sense of humor you occasionally don't realize!! the next task is to build your signal tracer or find a good heathkit one - so many are either in bad shape or priced too high or I find them online but they won't ship - so building yours may be the best bet.
Hi Mr. Carlson, I'm an audio engineer and as such I work with professional audio equipment daily, some of these pieces of equipment have been coveted and used for more than 50 years. This is probably outside the realm of "likely", but I would be incredibly interested to see you open up a vintage compressor such as a Fairchild or LA-2A or a Pultec EQ unit. If you have access to that kind of vintage audio equipment would you consider ever bringing them on to the show?
Thanks, Paul. Those are some nice TV's and stuff. I'm glad that the notification bell works for you. YT hasn't sent me any notifications since Covid started. I have also turned them off and then back on and that didn't help. Maybe they turned them off for me because they know that I am a Christian and a conservative 2nd Amendment supporter...
Thank you for calling out other channels; that's a kind thing for you to do, and for mentioning that many (myself included) don't typically ask for subs/likes.
Thanks for the tour, looking forward to seeing the insides of those old TVs. Did you take any photos of the mouse's nest before you evicted him? Very much enjoying your receiver restoration series too.
Mr. Carlson has North Americas emergency stash of vacuum tubes. If there were none of a particular nomenclature to be found, Paul has a dozen of them. Brand new in the box.
Interesting! Maybe you mentioned that somewhere, is UA-cam your job, or are you professionally repairing these things and you charge for it? Or are you rich and do this just for fun?
The TV restorations look like the could be, well, challenging. Better than factory fresh, like your radio restorations? This I gotta see! I had never heard of Fleetwood and Marconi televisions. Canadian brands?

a rf amp design and build would be awsome also. maybe multi band 80-10 or mono 6m. 4 to 500 watt would be sweet..
When are you going to restore some of those beautiful Tektronix scopes?
LOOK FORWARD TO MORE CONTENT FROM YOU .
Thanks for mention! bandersentv is also one of my favorites. I get into early solid state, radios and color tv a bit more than Bob. Defiantly resurrect the tabletop...
No problem Mr Shango! We all appreciate your video's and humor, thanks for all you do!
Enjoy both your UA-cam channels. You guys are *National Treasures*
Still one of THE best electronics repair and restoration channels on the net. love your content.

Show us someone else here on UA-cam that even comes close to Mr. Carlson.
I am very much looking forward to the CRT television resurrections. There are very few people who do these and watching brings back good memories of the 70s when I used to repair TVs in the UK.
THE best electronics repair and restoration
Lots to look fwd to, love to see a TV restoration on the channel.
You go man!
I thought the ancient electronics was literally a thing of the past until i found these utube channels reviving the technology.

I too enjoy shang066. Also trx lab. Thanks for all you guys do.

Paul now I know why it's so hard to find affordable tubes. You've got them all 😉😉😉😉👍👍👍👍

Thanks for the look around Paul. Yep, two good channels you mentioned. I watch both of them.

He also delves into other devices, transistor radio's, some audio equipment, as well as having experience with speakers / sound reinforcement equipment.
Don't forget glasslinger for a third perspective on restorations, as well as some really well thought out scientific builds.
Yah, Shango is incredible, I've seen him rescue TV sets that were so far gone, probably even the dump wouldn't take them! I used to fiddle with TV sets found in the garbage 50 years ago as a kid and I learned most everything I know about electronics from battling those things.

I love shangos troubleshooting and humor. Another good teacher with a bit of an attitude though is 12voltvids.
Shango is an advanced tech. Sometimes his design knowledge could use some intuition or reach. I like his channel and he makes me look like an amateur. Mr. Carlson is wizard..and a teacher..very few like that in my observation so far.
@@anandarochisha Absolutely. Although I suspect I will be waiting a long time for Mr. Carlson to load up a Time Domain Reflectometer with fireworks and blow it to smithereens!

I’m finally about to start a restore project on an old pre amp. It has been sitting for about a year as a “carrot” for me when life slowed down. That never happens, so I finally unscrewed the one of eight screws left holding the cover to the chassis last night and looked inside. Sadly it’s a little worse then I was assuming but that just means more fun. Lol
My apologies for droning on. I just wanted to give you some thanks.

Tube tvs are fascinating. Love watching banderson restoring them and shango resurrecting very far gone sets
Those old TVs really look gorgeous, in their beautiful wood cabinets.
Can't wait for the television repair and restoration, looks like lots of fun. I spent 30 plus years repairing televisions. Thanks for sharing! 👍👍
Mr Carlsons lab you are good at restoring vintage shortwave receivers and alignment of vintage shortwave receivers 🎉🎉🎉😊😊

I highly recommend Trevor's Bench to add to the list of first class UA-camr's.
Can not wait for this old stuff!

this video reminds me of Shango066, especially the TV in rough condition 😅
the fleetwood looks great
"FesZ Electronics" also great channel worth to mention.
that RCA roundie looks like a RCA 630ts line chassis or later, I have restored one of those, takes a LOT of time and effort!
I'm up for about anything that you produce...I have very eclectic tastes in electronics.
Old...new...radio...TV...pretty much everything.
Fun stuff. My TV knowledge will fit in a 1/2 watt resistor.
I like your tube collection way more than my collection.
I know nothing about radios, but I did recognize the Ladder.
Looking forward to seeing your future video's.
I watched the Apollo moon landings on a black and white shuttered television as a child. Sometimes the doors were practical because they could be used to shade the sun during the day.

"I'm going to give you a peek into the future".
For a moment I was thinking that you'd invented a time machine.
Hi Paul, please start the restoration on the BC-348 soon. I've got three that are waiting.
I have always wondered how you stored your vacuum tubes and marveled at how quickly you found the one needed, usually within the few seconds from one scene to the next ;-). How do you locate/catalog what you need/have?
I'm excited to see the Atwater Kent video. I have the exact same radio, minus the speaker.
I also have a mint Atwater Kent model 70 console, L type chassis
I will also mention one other radio repair channel, and that is TRX Bench. He is my favorite besides your channel Paul. He is very very thorough when he explains what he is doing, how he is finding the faulty component, and so on. He repairs very often amateur radio stations, and that is very helpful if you have a similar radio that doesn't work correctly. I will definitely check out the two other channels you spoke about, Paul. Take care 73.
Way to share the love with your fellow UA-camrs!
You sir are a better man than I, if after several attempts trying to get an electronic device to work properly, if it still gives me trouble, it goes in the electronics recycle bin, minus the tubes. Lol
It's an addiction!! Been buying more of these American 5 and earlier radios!! All to repair. Also several higher quality ones with the transformers so can't wait to get to them.. Thanks for the other youtube suggestions. Paul you also have a great sense of humor you occasionally don't realize!! the next task is to build your signal tracer or find a good heathkit one - so many are either in bad shape or priced too high or I find them online but they won't ship - so building yours may be the best bet.
Glasslinger's channel. His 1:34:00 long "restoring a 1949 tv set" was the very first of these type of television restoration videos I ever saw.
Nice "behind the scenes" video.
BTW, are you "officially"a grandfather, yet?
holy hell that is a lot of tubes xD
Hi Mr. Carlson, I'm an audio engineer and as such I work with professional audio equipment daily, some of these pieces of equipment have been coveted and used for more than 50 years. This is probably outside the realm of "likely", but I would be incredibly interested to see you open up a vintage compressor such as a Fairchild or LA-2A or a Pultec EQ unit. If you have access to that kind of vintage audio equipment would you consider ever bringing them on to the show?
"Will do" in a future video. Thanks for your input!
Paul, the Atwater Kent is of interest to me. I own a very clean Atwater Kent Model 20 and want to learn more about those.
Can't wait to see the TV repairs.
Thanks, Paul. Those are some nice TV's and stuff. I'm glad that the notification bell works for you. YT hasn't sent me any notifications since Covid started. I have also turned them off and then back on and that didn't help. Maybe they turned them off for me because they know that I am a Christian and a conservative 2nd Amendment supporter...
Thank you for calling out other channels; that's a kind thing for you to do, and for mentioning that many (myself included) don't typically ask for subs/likes.
In your spare time? Lol. Good video
Thanks for the tour, looking forward to seeing the insides of those old TVs. Did you take any photos of the mouse's nest before you evicted him? Very much enjoying your receiver restoration series too.
Mr. Carlson has North Americas emergency stash of vacuum tubes. If there were none of a particular nomenclature to be found, Paul has a dozen of them. Brand new in the box.
Paul, Would love to know where you find your vacuum tubes? You seem to have a very large and expansive collection.
Interesting! Maybe you mentioned that somewhere, is UA-cam your job, or are you professionally repairing these things and you charge for it? Or are you rich and do this just for fun?
The TV restorations look like the could be, well, challenging. Better than factory fresh, like your radio restorations? This I gotta see!
I had never heard of Fleetwood and Marconi televisions. Canadian brands?
Any chance you can do tube camera repairs? Like the panasonic 1650 or any vidicon tube camera?
