Loveeeee this stuff

I wonder if there is a way for me to contact you via e-mail about this jukebox. I am working on a 1937 Seeburg Rex that has an amplifier that is identical to the one you picked up as a possible replacement: SB10200 Mine works but I wouldn't mind having a spare on hand if you didn't use yours and it could be acquired for a decent price. Thanks! Rich

Awesome looking bookmatched sides radio. Packard Bell did this to a couple of other models like a later 5AE, 5D-DL, 88, 551 and 566. There were more I'm sure but this kind of unique wood back design stopped around 1948. The secret to the design is the chassis gets removed from the cabinet from underneath after removing the knobs.

A very good looking set !

Glasslinger I seen him restore cabinets

This might be a farm radio 📻 . They used a 90 volt battery 🔋 system. That speaker 🔊 is not original. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 and a very safe and Happy New Year to ya!! Your friend, Jeff!!

90% of YT radio repair creators can't seem to understand how loud the sets are compared to narration on camera. And then they try to talk at the sane time. Not a bad video except for that.

You were right when you said that they stuck the one that they had in there. You should go back to the 12, the rectifier will be over worked by the larger cap.

You need glasses bad.

Nice! Subscribed.

Great job and thanks for the mention of Uncle Doug. I will watch that. In the meantime, is there a link to the sale? I'm interested.

i got same speaker did you figure out the needed transformer? i have a variac, will that work to power this? thank you

Looks like that was a good auction buy on the tubes. Since you only do radios and they are all old radio tubes. The Bendix is a 646A and the whole top drawer is faux wood over glass but in the center was left unpainted to show the dial which seems to be missing. Centered below that was the name Bendix. A rare radio for sure. the Philco is a model 60-MB from 1934. The model 60 had many changes cabinet style wise. You have a Zenith radio phonograph model 6-R-886, nice!

Used to like these turntables. Or as I called it, when I was young, a record player.

That's a beauty!

Get a new turntable. This one has horrible warble and flutter. The bass line was not as tight and firm as it should be with good playback. Find either a good used turntable like a Technics or buy a new Fluance.

They are dog bone resistors www.google.com/search?q=dog+bone+resistor+color+code&oq=dog+bone+resistor&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgAEAAYgAQyBwgAEAAYgAQyBggBEEUYOTIHCAIQABiABDIICAMQABgWGB4yCggEEAAYDxgWGB4yCAgFEAAYFhge0gEINjEyN2owajeoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

Just found your channel. If I may offer a word of advice, use the "one hand rule". Keep your free hand away from the chassis or other grounded surface. Should you inadvertently touch a hot terminal strip or socket the B+ voltage will flow right through your chest. From experience I know that 250 or more DC volts is quite unpleasant. There is also line current ahead of the power transformer to be wary of. When in doubt about a component check the schematic diagram. Since in tube sets almost every component ties to a tube socket it is not too hard to determine the purpose of the device. A 3rd bit of wisdom: Get yourself a receiving tube manual, it will show the approximate voltages present at every tube pin. Have fun with this hobby, but be careful!

I got a postwar RCA Victor #RC1064B274 that looks so similar to this. Need to take it to a shop to repair the dial, I still get sound out of whatever AM frequency it is stuck on. Great video!

Definitely recap before it takes out something you may regret.

I just bought that tv on impulse today! Looking forward to some learning!

My suggestion is that you leave this for someone more qualified before you damage more of this antique. Unqualified "restoration" is worse than none at all.

The 120 should be plugged into the third socket from the right. The far left socket gets a 199.

You'll find that the 6499 tube is even stranger than you thought. If I read the number right, it's an early digital memory device based on the same physics Tektronix used for the storage oscilloscope tubes.

Wow what a beauty

Right now on my bench is the horizontal/high voltage chassis from an RCA Berkshire Regency projection "entertainment center" from 1948 that was owned by an RCA service tech for many years. We at our museum are lucky to have a parts set for needed components to contribute to the restoration of the Regency. The TV componnents are identical to all RCA projection sets from 1946-1948, however the radio system is radically different from the usual production models. A nine band mororized tuner chassis and a 40 watt RMS power amp/power supply chassis is included on the Berkshire lineup along with a 15 inch full range speaker. It is a monster ! Hope to have it all operational in September for our swap meet so it can enjoyed by our visitors. I would love yo know of uour progress worh your RCA projection set ! More info on the Nerkshire Series is availble at the Early Television Foundation site. 😊 Our museum is at vrcmct.org

Beautiful TV. Just be careful, that sumbitch will bite you if you're not careful in the HV power supply

New old stock? Oh lets not put the screws back in... sounds sketchy at best. I tend to not believe anyone anymore because , lies , lies , lies...

You are like my dad's cousin James. He has his house so full of radios and vintage TVs you have to walk down a narrow path through his house.

This is the home version projection TV that Bob Anderson has with his being a 741PCS . They all have the same electronics namely the Projection Television Unit PTU-1. The Howard SAMs can be found on the internet. I think there are some higher than usual voltage rating electrolytics in the power supply that must be replaced first before going any further on it. Great scores on some cool stuff!

Well I have to admit it's the strangest TV I have ever seen. Love the radios. Well done.

Good find. At the end you could have a beautiful functioning work of art from the 1940s.

One thing I like to do is power the set up with the rectifier tube out of socket first (in a parallel heater configuration of course). This will ensure the power transformer and heater circuits are functioning before cranking up the B+ voltage. Great choice of music for this vintage radio!

Two words come to mind. Jim. Burns. He worked on several of these Zeniths and knows all and does tell you how to do restorations on old prewar radios on his channel. I have a Silvertone 6071 with two frozen knobs; one is the volume on/off switch the other is a 2 position selector switch. Tried heating the shaft near the chassis with them loose from the chassis and using WD40 to no success. Guess they must be removed out of the chassis to fix.😑 Check out Jim's wonderful channel!

Ok, so which is it? Did you pick it at a thrift store or did you purchase it via mail?

I restored a 6 S 223 a while back works great, had to replace the pentagrid tube. I did a 1941 Philco console for my sister, was a big pain in the butt, it has the gutta percha wiring and loctal tubes that had corroded pins. I didn't try to replace the wiring, just made sure it was all separated, added a line fuse. Never again

Great looking radio. I'm glad it arrived undamaged from the seller. It's a huge risk to put these old fellas and gals in the mail. Restore it and good luck!

I did one of these sets on my channel. For 1942 Zenith used a lot of rubber wiring - most of mine had to be replaced, including to the tone controls on the front. They also use a 6X5 rectifier which is prone to shorts and can take out the power transformer. I generally replace this with a diode and dropping resistor to get the B+ voltage right. Once these are restored properly they're very nice playing sets.

A good looking example. When you have a chance, clean all of the tube pins, loctals can have oxidized pins, and give you headaches....

The turntable set up is definitely an admiral. It is the exact same one that was in my 1940s admiral radio record player floor model. Had it 50 years ago when I was a teenager. Bought it at a garage sale for probably 5 or 10 dollars

Love your Lincoln. I remember as a kid in the 60's the Civil defence markings. My dad had those in his 63 Pontiac Bonneville. The one you have in your classic with the tube sound must be amazing to listen to. We need am radio back with good old music. Thanks for sharing. 😊

Hi, I have not been able to locate a schematic for this Emerson. Liked your video. Thanks

I would venture to guess it has capacitors that are degraded and get worse with heat. They may have been replaced long ago or never at all. The key symptom is it changes with heat. While it is a TRF set, it does have the "new" AVC circuit Philco introduced in that chassis. The AVC would sit on the gain of the various stages depending upon if it was a low power signal or high power signal. If it is running away with volume and the station and power hasn't changed, it's definitely in the AVC circuit.

Is the radio a superheterodyne or tuned radio frequency receiver?

this is good

Thanks for saving it! I have a 1938 Wurlitzer.

These are good records and records

I just noticed something, the display glass for the title boards isnt curved like its suppose to be

A 1936 Wurlitzer 412. I just had mine fully restored and completed about a week ago. I had to have a back door made and find the fancy back panel for it and also replace the amp and speaker. I hope you can get that beauty up and running.
