SONY SW-100 Brighter LED backlight

Replaced the dim LEDs with a brighter one for this SW-100. Rather a simple task but given the small size of the circuitry, this is not for the faint of heart! I also aligned the SSB of the receiver.

Replaced the electrolytic capacitors in the SONY SW-55 from Germany. The chassis was very clean and did not need any circuit repair just a good cleaning. This receiver will be back on it's way home very soon!
Interference on the 11 meter band
Просмотров 1317 лет назад
Recorded this during fairly quiet band conditions. This noisy emission is something I have heard many times and is usually local, the one exception is when there is propagation or also known as 'Skip". This 'signal' is very close to my location (QTH) and just happens to be a RC toy. Most likely a car or truck model and the signal you see and hear is the digital control of the toy. Most times th...
Interference on 12 mHz

Recorded this late morning of July 11th. Not sure of the source but was pretty wide across the HF bands but in 5 mHz or less band sections. Would fade in and out like it was some sort of propagation. may be some sort of radar? Maybe local?

HF Ionosondes

A very recent 17 meter to 6 meter HF band opening gave me the chance to use my Icom IC-7300 and it's scope/waterfall. The Icom made it easy to 'see' a wide range of frequencies. This helped to spot stations and other signals on the bands. One of the more interesting visuals are ionosonds that monitor and measure the propagation of the ionosphere. These radar like beacons travel up and down the ...

Numbers station

After doing capacitor replacement on this SONY SW55, I was doing some burn-in of the radio and came across this. A numbers station in Spanish but would break off with a transmission in some sort of digital burst then back to Spanish numbers.

My new Icom IC-7300 with it's band scope and waterfall display. Icom's direct sampling transceiver makes a great short wave receiver! Here I am receiving signals on or about 16.2 mHz, appears to be some modulated radar, military or DEA. Clustered around this frequency, it changes in several ways and even shows a possible ID at the beginning of it's scan. These signals show up all over the HF sp...

Bonjour I am Jean , you repaired my sw100 many years ago..he is still ok I have a sw 55 which have pb of low sound, do you continue to repair?
Best Beer commercial ever😂
I got one of these from a friend that may have been repaired by you once (uses very similar capacitors, also I saw a date of 3/8/11) and I am working on replacing the electrolytic caps with tantalums from a kit I bought off of eBay.
Just found one of these at the bottom of a giant bin at a thrift outlet store for $2. It was in a plastic baggie with its felt dust cover and AC adapter. The clock had 25 year old batteries in the compartment which had miraculously not leaked. At first it didn't power on, but after a bit of testing it turned out that the power switch had just gotten scratchy and needed a bit of contact cleaner. After that minor servicing (plus cleaning all of the switches, sliders and dials for good measure) it's been working as if it were brand now, and not something I just saved from the brink of the landfill. Fantastic little radio. I got it a nice little reel antenna, and it's been able to pull stations from all over the world.
I have 4 of these, and have a 5th coming that does not power on, and thinking it may be the cable. I have never done this, just watched videos such as this one, and having a few cable repairs kits that have the capacitor and brighter LEDs, so I hope it does not end up like my attempts at fixing laptops.
Can those faulty 24 capacitor make the Jog dial not to work sir ??? Anyone from this group please reply to me... ??? My Arrow scan keys are not working... An the sound is very low like 5% only on full volume... So what has made my those Jog dial not to work... ??? Please reply ...
Bought one 2 years ago for $60 Canadian pick up New York and Boston from 800 miles away every night and Radio Romania every once in a while... Great little gem of a receiver

Подскажите от внешней антенны работает FM на данном приёмнике?
I would like to hire you to recap my radio
Repair? What repair? You only showed it stripped down and working 👎
hi there how much do you charge please to replace all the capacitors on my sony sw 55 I have bought capacitors already many thanks steve
Hi. where can i find this cable? Thanks.
Hello poikaa3, I would like the led part number and where to get them, and thanks for the video...
This radio only goes up in 5 kHz steps. Don't you loose most of the stations especially on SW and SSB channels.
Sorry but this video is not very helpful at all. A more detailed video showing procedures would have been much better. But thank you for what you did nevertheless.
Hello, can you give me the dimensions of the notch in the lid, where the flat flex cable is going through, please ?
Lovely 🌹
The LCD just went out on mine,I bought it 35 years ago,hopefully I'll find a parts radio cheap,I know how to disassemble this radio

Cool! Is there any way to figure out which one is the transmitting station?
can u just pull the knobs off the face plate then remove side screws then remove face plate? mine is really tight on there
Where is the button to turn on the backlight on the Sony ICF-SW100?
Near the LCD on the left.
Sony ICF SW55 - SSB - не плачет, проблема решена. УРА! Как и обещал даю описание. Много лет существует проблема в SonyICF-SW55, описанная в разных статьях и комментариях, ЭТО нестабильность работы именно в SSB, это явление выражается в некотором -«подплакивании» голоса, и при этом, это у многих партиях этих приёмников, только выражается у всех по разному, у кого более заметно, у кого менее, но проблема есть. Много делалось попыток, на разных сайтах, радиолюбителями, выявить причину и устранить - безрезультатно. И вот наконец проблема с SSB - решена. Я провел много экспериментов по устранения «плача» в SSB и все таки нашёл причину и метод её устранения, теперь приёмник Sony ICF SW55 достойно будет работать без «подплакиваниея», по приёму однополосной модуляции. Оказалось - это связано - только со шлейфом, и устраняется очень легко, не меняя ни каких деталей, и нужно только снять заднюю крышку приёмника и сделать несколько манипуляций. И приёмник заработает как положено. Опишу как это можно сделать, практически, всего за 10 минут. Это доступно любому простому пользователю, только нужен паяльничек и кусочек изолированного проводка. Доработка SSB - радиоприёмника Sony ICF SW55, трели - искажение модуляции - решено. Не пугайтесь, что так много расписано, это для любого пользователя, что бы мог повторить. Суть - всего то, сделать правильно перемычку - одним проводком. Как это сделать, пошаговая инструкция. 1. Открываем заднюю крышку радиоприёмника, 5 шурупов, перед нами плата с SMD монтажом. 2. Поворачиваем приёмник батарейным отсеком к себе. 3. Слева от динамика - припаян шлейф, это тот участок, где нужно сделать эту доработку. 4. Отворачиваем аккуратно (этот участок ) шлейфа на себя так, что бы было видно дорожки под шлейфом. Так же видим экранированную пластину закрывающую место платы. 5. Находим ( 6 ) ножку - (вывод) шлейфа и коротенькую дорожку от него к (заклёпке - пистону) сразу под шлейфом. 6. Перерезаем соединение аккуратно, эту дорожку, от шлейфа - его ( 6 вывода) к заклёпке, прямо у пистона - заклепки, и проверяем обязательный разрыв. 7. За пластиной экранной - ищем надпись на плате приёмника "FM LOCAL" и ( 3 -три) заклёпки - пистоны, расположенные рядом в одну линию. 8. Считаем с лева на право, и находим (3 - третью) заклёпку - пистон, надпись ("LOCAL") и буквы ( "AL") под этой заклёпкой. 9. Перерезаем аккуратно печатную дорожку к это заклёпке, что определили - около ( AL), и проверяем обязательный разрыв соединения. 10. Находим - тонкий многожильный изолированный проводок произвольной длины с запасом, находим - отсчитываем - ( 6 вывод шлейфа)там, где от него отрезана дорожка к пистону, и припаиваем красиво, иименно к самому выводу шлейфа, этот проводник одним концом. \ 11. Второй конец проводка, припаянного к выводу( 6) шлейфа, примеряем по длине к точке, куда нужно его припаять, а именно к пятачку, с надписью (" S. LEVEL") и обязательно проводим поверх экранированной пластины коротким путем, что бы не мешало шлейфу. 12. Улаживаем шлейф на своё место, как и ранее. 13. Проверяем правильность и последовательность действий, отсутствие замыканий и некачественной пайки. 14. Закрываем крышку радиоприёмника и радуемся правильной модуляции в режиме SSB приёмника Sony ICF SW55. Проблема устранена навсегда - именно в этой модели. Это НЕ ЕСТЬ - схемный недостаток, а всего лишь ошибка в расположении выводов на шлейф с платы. Вот потому и очень трудно было определить эту причину, и много было сделано экспериментов - но без результата. Я случайно сделал такой вариант со шлейфом в приёмнике, просто больше ничего не оставалось и это оказалось правильное решение. Делайте, повторяйте по желанию, всем удачи.

Just had my SW 55 repaired. Catastrophic League from caps which corroded the board and Viers along with chips. It appeared on radio cruncher YT Channel and is still undergoing repair.
Someone just pointed out in the comments section that i might be picking up the same thing on a video i made. ruclips.net/video/QJzJ-C1RhMk/видео.html
Thanks for sharing! I want to mod mine in amber. To my knowledge the LED is 1210 package @2.2V -- or have you tried other sizes/specs? Thanks in advance
Did you mod your radio ?

I got one of these SONY short waves radio and I paid £10.00 for it from a charity shop in London few years ago
My SW55 is doing good on MW and FM, however short wave has very poor reception say only one station on 21m band that too noisy and very very low audio. Could you please help me and let me know what possible fault it is having?

Help... Where i Can Buy keyboard codice 1-640-484 for icf-sw55 Thanks
Hi there, I have this sony icf-sw55 Radio which I haven't been using for years, yesterday when I try to use it again it says Cal only and there is nothing going on.. I checked on net and seem like it is common problem with this type of Radio and something must be wrong with capacitors.. Question is what type and walt capacitors I should buy to replace them? I know it will be not easy but I will try to change it :) as seem like there are no place to fix it in my country sadly.. All the best..
Problem will be repeat cause door movment
He had the replacement kit from Sony, the top case comes with a notch, it helps to keep the FFC from being bend too harsh.
I know Mister Rod or Poikaa3 through Amateur Radio and also through the Sony icf-2010 Group. I have already contacted him several times to exchange ideas and comments on radio. Unfortunately I don't see much more messages from him on SonyICF20102001Dusergroup @ groups.io, I think he must be away from the group. He's a good guy.

Hi. Do you snap off the end of the battery spring to prevent door failure? Also do you have an idea for that gray piece of ribbon that hides the FFC cables? From what could I fabricate one? Thanks.
I am getting one of these sent to me off eBay from the UK. If it requires any work done to it I will let the seller and you know and you can chat over it together.
The elevator was always cool to ride on
For reference purposes do you have the Sony part number(s) involved with this project?
Rod knows Sony radios very well. He's a great coach. He's a little lost I don't see his message in the group but send him an email Oliveira
Can you send me the procedure you used to take the front panel off to obtain access to the LED bulbs? My call at yahoo.com Thanks
Ant insight on what you used, proceedure or advise?
Its closing now
Hi , I have one of these and the FM starting to not finding any station and when find one the quality is very poor . The AM band is working perfectly and there is not any issue with that but the Fm is suffering . Do you know what is the problem is ? Thanks
Hi , Just bought on off the ebay , it just receive the couple of strong reception . Do you know whats the problem is ? Thanks
