    I find Working on these little guys relaxing even though it requires a lot of patience, concentration and discipline. That's a unique one with the battery in the middle. Appreciate the mention from the master himself!

    Shango's channel is fun, he revives so real basket cases with whatever works, he's really good at finding the problems. It's guy's like you that make UA-cam.

    Wow that brings back memories while riding the school bus to High School back in the early '60s when the transistor was the coolest thing! Senior student, Gary, had just put together a 6 transistor radio from a kit to listen to on the way to school. I was really impressed! At the same time, I was into Ham Radio with all the big heavy stuff to homebrew. Gary later entered the NY State Science Fair that year and won first prize for building a bulky computer with wood dials etc. I built a Tesla Coil from old TV parts, cardboard tubing, and a Model T spark coil. At least I made Honorable mention haha.

    Mr. Carlson is the best part of our day. My husband was in gown and housecoat about to have triple hernia surgery and the Cape Breton Regional Hospital canceled his surgery. Mr. Carlson has brightened his day. Thankyou Mr. Carlson. You make so many people happy.

    As child in the 60's I had a transistor radio and would tune in the Grand Ol' Opry from Nashville on Saturday nights and put the radio under my pillow and drift off to dream with the crackling sweet sounds of the radio waves.

    As obsolete as they are, these tiny radios are still miracles of human ingenuity. Very enjoyable and instructive video. I think you are a genius.

    That time when any equipment was accompanied by its schematic diagram.

    When initially pulled from the case, it reminded me of the old Star Trek communicator.

    What a memory. When I was in 10th grade, (1966) my girlfriend and myself would walk 4 blocks for lunch listening to a Motorola 9 transistor radio about the size you are reviewing. Man did that radio eat a 9 volt battery in about 10 hrs. I would love to find that radio again, as my wife misses it too.

    Doesn't matter big equipment or small radio. You attention to detail is INCREDIBLE.

    Cool that you gave Shango a shout out. Both of you have excellent channels!

    Mr.Carlson is the best man out there who explains everything in detail , without any annoying background music. His voice is music to my ears ...Best wishes from Singapore .

    You and Shango has always been my two favorite radio repair/restore channels.

    I discovered Shango's channel a few years ago because I like vintage TVs and I like repair videos (and I like to repair vintage electronics). First I was reluctant to watch the radio repairs as I thought they would be kinda boring (and they often are kinda long), but Shango's sarcastic comments, his way of trolling phone scammers and his mumble rap always make my day. Better than most of what's on TV.

    Oh, oh, a tiny one. Usually Mr Carlson is working on the bigger stuff, so this is neat! :)

    I love these videos, such a great variety in your material. This particular one reminded me of a day maybe 45 years ago when I was trying to trace an underground 220V 60 amp service cable to my house.

    Love the "Star Trek Symbol" where the battery goes...and how the radio looks a bit like a TOS communicator :)
