- See thevee.org. for more information on these events. This was the Winter session at Farmington Hills, MI in the Detroit area. What a super swap meet. So many classic pieces. Marcia and I had a great time. Shooting the video was a breeze. Everything fell into place. Normally I do not buy anything, however a retro guitar amp caught my eye. So, I figured why not. Glad I did as it turns out to be a very rare piece. So get ready for a refurbish series on the Premier 110. I plan to fully document the layout & schematic. And of course fully rebuild the amp. I love its style. My guess is a Harp player would fall in love with it. We plan to attend the summer event, so there is much more to follow. So, sit back, sip on your favorite beverage, enjoy the meet.

Cuando se me ofrece la oportunidad de asistir a eventos de esta naturaleza, entonces una vez más me queda claro que la vida tiene sentido para mí y al parecer no soy el único "loco" en esta partida. ¡Adoro a todos esos ejemplares! testigos de un pasado glorioso.
You and Scott could be brothers. Amazing likeness.
When I was a kid, I would stay with my grandpa over the summer. When he wanted to keep me busy, he would give me piles of vintage radios to take apart. The radios looked mint, and most of them worked fine. I took apart HUNDREDS of them. I wish I knew then, what I know now.
As a vintage stereo/tube afficionado and Ham Radio licensee/operator since 1976, the coolness factor of this video is 'off the charts'. But seeing the back cover of Rush's 2112 come into view at 46:45 just takes it to another level!
I love these shows. they bring back so many memories.
Every part of vintage technology I've been involved in, mechanical, electrical or electronic there aren't many young people who are interested in carrying the torch into the future.
93 minutes of pure entertainment, enjoyed the look around with you.
Cheers.
That HP-85 Laboratory Computer is a good work horse when paired with interface cards to connect it to the outside world. Back in the mid 1980's our company used one to operate the PCB Test Station for the multiple product lines produced. The different profiles were stored on the removeable tape drive and the test results could be printed out on the included 3.5 inch thermal printer. It was a 32K machine programmed in Basic, but did the job for us up into the early 2000's.
Great memory, bring a lot fun in music. The world of vintage audio equipments....bring peace and humanity..
Lovely 💕💐 video I like this radio market
Nice pick on that amp Terry. Those are very sought after and that one is worth a LOT if you can find one...
People 50 and older are the best people in their knowledge of modern and ancient technology 😍
Great post thanks. Wonderful radios. Real class.
Thanks for another tour! I wish there were shows like this in my area.
How nice to see vintage stuff and lovers.
Looks like a good time with good people. Thanks for the video, Terry.
Yes Sir, it was a blast. We will go back for the summer event
@@d-labelectronics I'd like to find one close to me. I think there is one down near Elizabethtown, KY maybe. I'll have to check on that sometime.
@@TheGuitologist Try also the Charlotte, NC "Spring in the Carolinas " event at the Sheraton Charlotte Airport Hotel Mar 26-28. www.cc-awa.club has info. They dont publicize it much though, its a smaller show, outdoor flea market, but the auctions can be huge there.
I watch these for hours and hours have a druel bucket under the computer table ,East coast isnt as fluent as you guys good thing id be broke
(Billy from Lyrones Instruments in Battle Creek here) I would've loved to film for you at this event. Wow LOVE the Kenwood w/blue lighting! I kept my eye out for Telefunken's with the cool seafoam strobe tuner. I just don't see them anymore.
I wish there were radio meets like this near NYC! Nice stuff!
Hi Terry, Great video. Thanks so much.
Brilliant gawk from afar!Im on opposite side o the planet but still spotted a stack o hot tidbits!That was cool .Thanks chief!!
Great vid.
About 40 years ago companies exported electronics jobs from the US to Asia.
Now companies like Apple, John Deer are deliberately electronically locking equipment so it cannot be repaired, again they now send items to Asia for repair.
That's why we only see old guys doing repairs these days.
If you want to support local repair shops and allow youngsters to learn how to repair things upport the legislation on the "righ to repair" your own equipment in your state.
Currently legislation in Maine is being stifled by big corps, show up give your support or write, e-mail your state representatives.
Great video 👌 tnx...
Last big gathering before COVID 19 hoping 2021 is much better at least by summer
Always enjoy your videos thanks so much
Awesome stuff
Love the expo vids Terry.
Super Fun
This was a really great show. I'd love to have that tape echo and the price looked right! Tube fired vintage tape echos are worth a small fortune these days!
I am hypnotized... shucks I missed FrostFest in Richmond. This Michigan Radio Meet looks great.
Ah, the smell of Bakelite and old solder flux. Thanks for the great video.
Being in West Michigan, definitely closer to me than the Dayton Hamvention. :) Thanks for sharing.
That's so cool you found some nice 7027s, I hope you got a good deal.
Wish I had an event like this here in Canada.... Great video Terry....
Around the Toronto area where I live Ham fests used to be abundant and sold lots of vintage audio gear as well. But the collectors have snapped most of it up and there's not much vintage audio to be found at ham fests anymore in the GTA. I've given up on them for that reason.
Awesome Terry!
Great vid,, thank you. I’d go broke in that place!
Nice event. I wish they had something like this in the NYC area.
Great. Thank you sir.
Great video Terry and I thought I saw your double @ 1:23 Good to see some youngsters taking an interest and Marcia is just fabulous Cheers from Australia
I just found that exact B&K at our local commission sales place and picked it up for 5.00 cleaned it up and it works like a charm. Didn’t need it but couldn’t turn it down for 5
We didn't make the trip from Flint area because of icy roads, but gosh, I wish we could have been there! Definitely, we will be going to the July Extravaganza in Livonia.
Love that burnt dust on tubes smell, too. Thanks for posting.
Should have come... all paved roads were clear as can be and dry. Only the country dirt roads had snow pack.
Oooo! Spanish reds are my favorites.
Marsha needs her own channel! She’s fab.
wauw! wish we had that in holland!!!!!! here supersmall and price are grazy!!!! n fun for hobbyist
I was there, Terry, but I must have just missed you...What a great tour of the place, too...I also met your friend (Timmy73) at 1:04:11...It is kids like him that are the future of this electronics hobby! The turnout was greater this year than last year and I've attended the Farmington event the last few years...Here's hoping the next one, whenever that is, is just as good and keep on posting these great videos!
Merry Christmas.
$250 for NG51 Echolette is a damn good deal!
Terry, another great Expo video. I do find hope yet for our youth as evidenced by Timmy73 (channel ends in UC8DxtTIDprEELMsxa0LV3zA) and that young fellow at the end (the one with the box 'o stuff, not the one with the hat). I hope that was you offering to collab with him to get that prototype up and running after all these years. He sure seems to value the art of the hobby and definitely his great great grandfather. I bet that would be something he would be forever grateful for.
You ROCK! (to some Alice Cooper ;) ) Steer him straight Marcia!!
Hahahaaaah,,, Love it,, Thanks Ter :)
HP85 Calculator. We used them to control external test equipment with the GPIB interface. Automation back in the 80’s.
12:45
You are welcomed !
.
Lot of fabulous stuff! Love that Hallicritter(Hallicrafters) S-40! You should've made an offer on that Crosley clock!
Oh my god I WANT that little rainbow turntable at 5:32!!!
Nice bit of gear in the background at 3:58. Not exactly vintage compared to the items on the table in front of it. I recognized the R-390 before the close up of it. I got a laugh from the person saying "It's really light". :) I like the sign at 17:32. It is so true. I would have been tempted by the wooden plaque at 39:30 or the HP-85 at 49:20.
Looks like fun and meeting some old friends.. Could have spent $$$ but it's only on Saturday!
summer one is TWO days... Sat and Sun. July 18-19 2020. See www.thevee.org in March for info.
Very nice expo. 73 de pa3geo
I wish there's one like this in San Diego County in California!
I worked on the R390 years ago in the Navy.
OMG Terry there 2 of those RCA pa tube amps there - back to back about 20 feet apart!
Trick would be to drag the lower priced one over to the higher - and then start working the high guy, to get him lower. Guarantee, the low guy would drop his price, too, before you wewre done .
Often thought mikes or amps or spkr drivers would be good to get this way, at a big show where duplicates might exist- because sellers all know a project today is going be stereo at minimum.
42:56 Terry to bad you should grab that incredible vintage Jensen speaker and btw i know a lot about vintage guitar echo’s, so that Echolette at the end is a Germany build NG51.. it’s a true fair price on that. Clean it up and you catch 4 times this price!!!!oh men i wish i was there to grab.🥺. Cheers mate🍷
👍👍
man we dont have any shows like this in Virginia ,im jealous !!! all we can do is watch your channel and drewl and dream
Get to this one coming Mar 26-28 www.cc-awa.club Charlotte, NC
Awesome coverage again Terry and you need to learn how to be more stealth in bringing home more toys!! All about timing!! 73's
Thank you, it was very interesting.///////////
The guy with coffee while y'all were talking wine reminded me of Scotty from Star Trek.

@@d-labelectronics Thanks Terry.
Quack Electrical machine could have come straight from Kellogg.
Not the cereal.
Great movie, The Road to Wellville.
BTW, Most of these sellers will be back at the SUMMER VEE July 18-19 2020. So if you see something here you want, it might not have sold and will be back at that show, which is even bigger show.
Sadly, due to Covid 19, the summer VEE was canceled. The winter VEE may happen but not looking good right now in October, so probably will return July 2021 in the new larger location. Watch www.thevee.org for updates, and the Michigan Antique Radio Club Facebook page as well. Need more info about this event, email me Mark at moppat at comcast dot net
(1:24:30) Wait a minute... somebody actually brought an ADAT to this convention?
BLASPHEMY!
Great video though, as always! 👍👍
Много интересных вещей. Хорошо что есть радиорынки, есть интересующиеся люди. Сюда приходят люди с мозгами, с ними интересно общаться.
I refurbished an eico 324 sig gen & calibrated it with an am radio. When I put it back into the case the signal is gone. Help.
I wish I were there.
Does anyone know the make/model number of the RCA Amplifier shown at around 12:06?
I am in Brazil, and I need a knob volume for Motoradio Dunga I, please.
Heaven.
Nice Klemt Echolette NG51 S tape echo at 27:21. It even comes with the ever missing top lid - wonder how it made its way over to America.
Right man! I was wondering also. he had to grab that for sure! Clean it up and rock ‘n roll 4,5,6 times over $250!
She is very beautifull... 12:55 WOW
Thank you for the timestamp! saved me having to scroll around, indeed a beauty!
Y'all there in the US: ehh 40 bucks or less for these WORKING tabletop tube radios.
People here in Brazil: this crusty non-working falling apart radio? That'll be 150$. Plus shipping 🙃
Are there any shows like this in the Baltimore, Maryland area ? Thanks
Closest big show is the Kutztown Radio Show, info at www.renningers.net at the Renningers flea market out back, two large pavillions full. its in May and September. Its probably the biggest show in the USA actually. Great fun and the friday night BBQ with the vendors drinking, shooting off fireworks and burning old radio cabinets is unique to all the USA shows (best if you know a seller to attend this ). Another show on the east coast is the Mid Atlantic Antique Radio Club (MAARC) show, its in June. Its in Beltville, MD at a hotel. Internet will find it. Its a much smaller show however.
Keep checking the interwebs for 'hamfest'
Dang it... forgot about this......
16:45 I want that GE clock! how much was that?
Hi there Brad! would there be a lamp in it? That would be awesome. cheers mate
Sansui 9090, 1:22:10 yep have one of those too.
once had an ARO 1930's era
If you didn't get them I have a good pair of GE 7027A. I'm in Chicago. Not very much to ship to you.
I have to get up there and go to one of these! What did that guy have on that Pioneer QX949?! I sold one of those back in the 90's for next to nothing. Another one of my life's mistakes.
Why is this guy giving us the sneaky middle finger @ 46:51 ?
I have tons of this stuff. Western electric, sansui, pioneer, jensen and more!!! When and where is the next event?
Check: thevee.org for details
Is this only once a year? Thanks for covering expo stuff!!!
TWICE a year ! Next one is July 18-19 2020 at the Burton Manor in Livonia , MI. That will be a 20,000 sq ft show so hopefully tables will not sell out so fast. www.thevee.org will have info in March so mark your calendars. Same $5 general admission. The winter VEE will probably move to that venue too. need more info? email moppat at comcast dot net
Terry you could make a mint have your own internet sales i see alot of things i would buy commision applied ofcoarse lol,no really would
The Philips would have been made in Holland (aka Netherlands)
48:43 -45 .. is that a Kalamzoo bass 30 w/o its combo box?!? if you can find that vendor, i NEED their info!!! rare and the best rhythm guitar amp ever.
Problem is a 15 year old tektronix they probably still want 300 bucks for it too. A bit too much there
wow looks like a lot of fun. i wonder if there is one in the northeast where i live ??
March 1 in Nashua, NH see this www.antiqueradios.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=370670
WOW, 46:52 guy in the background walking by gave you a Rhode Island "salute"...nasty !
Hahahhahahhahs Specialy went back for that moment oh men was it for real????
Yep, he advertised his true self to the world.
what was the name of that tube place where you bought those Raytheon tubes? I hear CAMTUBES.COM but that wasnt it.
Close: hamtubes.com
@@d-labelectronics Ah! Duh me! How did I miss that one!
Terry, what is the web site of the tube guy where you bought your tubes. It sounded like amptubes.com but going there says it is for sale? Can any one give me the URL that works? Thanks.
It was hamtubes.com try this out www.hamtubes.com/tubes/list1.htm
Pretty Woman!
Where’s the ghetto blaster table?
The iron head cage is really creepy, why was it there. Why was the guy at the beginning of the video wearing a metal frame on his back.
That guy was Super Backpack!
That "metal frame" is a folding hand truck. The bottom folds down and the two wheels flip out to the other side.
Great to see you enjoyed the show! Give us a follow on UA-cam, we have our own short recap of this event as well!
