love your video's
What is your day job?
Amazing technical ability , it's a pleasure to watch it done so correct and with care and empathy for the equipment ...hence why they last so long even after 40,50,60 years of useage , with your skill they will see another 40/50/60years of useage ...
Thank you
I love your full repair videos but I think the what's on the desk videos would be great too. More Mr. Carlson is always better than less!
I'll second that.
Yes , I agree ...
All content from mr. Carlson's lab is greatly appreciated. This format is quite enjoyable too, as are the excellent repair and restoration videos. Thank you for all these efforts!
Your icon is beautiful, alpcns.
"Old HP meter crust" Yeah I've tried non-dairy creamer before.
Mr Carlson , full restorations of old radios are greatly appreciated
Thank you for anything you do... align it sir ! ...so interesting
Would love to see more episodes from the lab!
Get on his Patreon feed! For a couple of bucks a month you'll see even more!
I swear I could smell the 70s HP electronics!! Their gear was put together so meticulously it is a beauty to behold.
This is good. RUclips penalizes creators like Carlson who posts super high quality videos, but not often because such videos take so much time. So these tech talk videos can be posted more often. I want to see him prosper. All RUclips creators should aspire to have the quality he does.
If I ever saw one of those meters in 1968 I would have been awe struck by it's incredibly technical appearance. Brainy looking men in white lab coats would be using them and I would think we were so advanced as a society. Fantastic stuff. 😊✨
In the 1980’s, I worked at HP on those old voltmeters. They were, as you say, very sensitive to temperature. With many of these instruments, our solution for alignment was to use a spare top cover, with holes drilled into it directly over the calibration pots. This way we didn’t even have to remove the top cover to align the unit. (Spare top covers were easy to come by back then; I wouldn’t recommend drilling holes in any covers now!) It sure is great to see these magnificent old units still functioning, with a little TLC, after half a century!
Thanks for sharing your story Gary!
But you could make a dummy spare cover, just for calibration, out of some scrap material, and put holes in that.
@@bertoid YES. I JUST DISASSEMBLED AN OLD KITCHEN RANGE AND A DISHWASHER AND NOW I HAVE ALL KINDS OF SHEET METAL TO FABRICATE A CALIBRATION COVER.
Fantastic sharing, thanks. I've got several of these old beasts, counters and meters, and they all like to be left on for for a good while too settle down. The counter manuals talk about a day, and letting the XO age in while powered over *months*, keeping a drift log, etc. I love it.
Tech Talks YES reminds of my apprenticeship 50 something years ago, watching the the engineer fixing stuff & picking up tips on the way through, next thing you know your doing it yourself teaching a New apprentice, fine with me Paul.
MR CARLSON IS THE BEST IVE EVER SEEN.
Love your full videos but but anything that gets more of your wonderful content is very welcome!
A tidbit from you is a novel from others... any and all insights you provide are nuggets of gold! The series sounds great.
HP Nixie goodness. It’s double goodness!
Thanks for stopping by Marc!
@@MrCarlsonsLab I don't even like radio thing's or stuf like that...but Mr Carlson makes me wanna..same with curious Marc ...don't like old HP things from the 80s. But I can't stop watching... you guys make old things from bk in the day seem cool af...
@@brookerobertson2951 Thanks for your kind comment Brooke!
When I am doing my repair videos I just use a folder system on my computer, one for each repair, so even if one gets interrupted I can just add more footage to it and finish it when I can get back to it, also very handy for referring back to in case the memory gets a bit hazy, as can happen sometimes if I’ve been waiting a month or so for parts to arrive.
Thanks for stopping by!
for anyone who wants to get into electronics or learn some new skills and projects you cant go wrong with mr carlsons patreon, loads of excellent projects and explanations are second to none.
capacitor discharge box is a great finger saver!
it's currently 1 AM in here. I have about 2 thousands vacuum tubes, various kinds and sizes, that my grandpa gave to me. He never knew in his life how to use them, and i am a mechatronics technician, so finding your channel helped me understand everything better. Thank you so much.
Glad you're enjoying!
Always a pleasure to have a new Mr. Carlson's Lab video in the queue 👍
What a great way to enjoy a morning cup of coffee I love to watch “mr” carlson restoration stuff
The philosophy behind the "Tech Talk" series is great. It's like "Raw" Carlson.
Hmmm, Mr Carlson has some interesting HP gear that CuriousMarc has not shown us before. I'd enjoy the alignment tour. Thanks for sharing!
Paul + Marc would make the best TV series
I am highly interested in seeing the alignment of your 3440A DVM! I (and I am sure, others) get so much from your end to end videos and would never want those to ever stop. That said, this type of video is a great idea destined to be a huge hit and boost for the community. Thanks for asking, and thanks even more for expanding your knowledge share in this fashion.
It's great to see a functional piece of test equipment still working after over 50 years. My old Tektronix scope keeps the shed warm in the winter.
Yes. Tech talk. Yes alignment. Always of interest.
MR. CARLSON , LOVE YOUR CHARACTOR, ATTIDUDE, TONE OF YOUR SPEAKING, AND YOUR KNOWLEGE AND DETAIL OF YOUR WORK, MUCH RESPECT, " IF I ONLY HAD A TEACHER/MENTOR LIKE YOU WHEN COMING UP IN LIFE "......YOUNGSTERS TAKE NOTE......BLESSINGS TO ALL AND STAY SAFE.....MR. COFFEE !!!
@Google user Who cares? Correction. WHO CARES???
I'm just an industrial electrician but I have learned tons from this Vids. Also entertaining because my favorite hobby is learning. Mr. Carlson is a super teacher. I was lucky enough in high school trade school and community college to have such great instructors as him. Thank you for all the work and time you put in for us.
Hi mr Carlson I enjoy your videos hopefully one day if this pandemic ever comes to a end. I will be able to join your patreon channel. I would like you to show more of the soldering. Please keep up the grate work and have a great week.
An "over the shoulder" look as you work on various items will be great!! Your restoration and repair videos are excellent and I really appreciate the time and effort you put in to making them. I'll enjoy a more casual approach to what comes across your bench on an everyday basis. Any bit of info, knowledge, tips, or tricks greatly helps in my learning process. Keep'em coming, I learn something from every video!
Just when I thought I was heading to bed, What another half hour of sleep going to do for me that can equal to a Mr. C video.
I went and made some Mac and Cheese, grabbed a Pepsi. Bed can wait.
That's exactly what happened to me too. Even a three-hour repair would have been worth staying up for.
I'm an EE and like I know a lot of electronics but we are always learning. Tech Talks will be an EXCELLENT way to share knowledge. Kind of like having a trusted cohort in crime..LOL
I specifically joined your Patreon because I burned through everything you posted to RUclips. 😁 Literally every video has taught me something valuable -- enough to recover and spot-calibrate my eBay-found oscilloscope and function generator (against references we have at work). So, if this format helps you post more videos, I'd say it's "more better." 👍
I remember these meters being a Tech in the '70s. In those days it was HP, Tektronics and my trusty Simpson 260.
I like this format. Good to see you Mr Carlson!
Yes Paul, I would appreciate very much for you to continue this type of video. I'd also like to watch you restore the older test equipment
Definitely looking forward to more Tech Talks. Thanks!
I've been subbed for about 6 years now and try to watch every video! I love your current method of filming, but more new style of vids is cool too.
Your channel is coming along nicely 👍
Mr. C, I vote for Tech Talk. Always great content and as someone else said you provide the clearest audio on YT.
Hahah this reminds me of a microwave designer I knew, who said to me "whatever you know about electronics are thrown out the window when you deal with microwaves!"
He said you open things up, get it aligned then take 2 steps back or put the cover back on, it wont work anymore. Hahah
He designed 48 channel video microwave transmitters.
Your videos are greatly appreciated Professor Carlson and any type of format is welcome. "Tech Talk" is a great idea in addition to your restoration project videos.
I like these short videos. It's easier to click on it. Longer video's I usually need to keep for later since I have only so few hours available in an evening.
Mr Carlson, for years now I’ve been watching , Yes I would like to watch the alignment on the HP nixie . Thanks ! Good Job 👍
Love this new format, Even if it's just talking about random electronics that we love or older technologies. It's a far easier to consume and relax to. Sometimes we need to stop, sit back and share stories over a pint.
I could listen to you talk tech all day Paul.
Sometimes while sitting at the repair bench I go to MCL on YT and click on the play all button and let em' run. And very often I refer back to his patreon vids while constructing one of the many projects he releases.
Paul, please continue with a mix of "Tech Talk" & "full restoration" videos. Also, here's my vote for a video on restoring & calibrating this HP meter. I have an old HP dual PSU that has problems with one side, so any videos you do on similar equipment would be helpful.
Yes,please do the aliment on the meter.
Hi Paul, Yes I like this format please do continue! TFS, GB :)
Keep ALL your videos coming please! I am very curious to see the alignment procedure myself.
Like the idea, any shared knowledge is a gift
Tech Talk format is wonderful, yes please more like thiis! Thanks for having us at the bench.
Awesome stuff!!! Please Mr Carlson!!! Do it!! Do the alignment!!
You are the best teacher to learn electronics ,i love the way you explain each and everything, hope to see more of these kinds of videos
Thanks for the kind comment Noel!
Would love to see the alignment so I could finally follow along at my own risk! Have this exact meter. Also, I love this new format and think it will make an excellent choice for when I don’t have an hour or more to watch a full restoration. Looking forward to more!!
Thanks for visiting our planet, U R the best, every one i follow on RUclips Follows U : ) Thanks again 4 shearing your Wisdom, Stay SAFE ...
I don't know anything about electronics except what I've learned from your videos, and I am learning; so what ever it takes to make more vids, go for it. I do like the beginning to end videos, in fact I wish you could actually show more of the work that is being done such as replacing part etc. but I know it takes time that you just don't have! Thanks for your efforts.
Oh man . More Mr Carlson material. Exciting stuff. I may as well join your patreon page because I love how well you explain and break things down.
Yes join his Patron club. It's well worth it. I went the $20 level and smiled doing it.
I've yet to watch one of your videos without learning something. Thank you Paul.
Same here.
Yes, please consider making an alignment video and the repairs.
I do enjoy this format !
The nixie voltmeters are nostalgic for me.
We had a couple in my high school electronics lab
a long, long time ago. It’s good that your are saving them 👍
I enjoy all of the formats you present diagnosis, repair and tech talks in. Personally, I have learned so much and I've expanded my own bench using the knowledge I've gained to diagnose my own power supplies and other test equipment bought from eBay. Becoming a Patreon has been one of the best moves I've made and I'd highly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn much more.
Thanks for your kind feedback Sophie!
I learn something from every video. The more the better. Keep it up.
Yes! These short videos are a good idea. Thanks.
Ah! I have two of these 3440A meters, both with the very hard to find 3444A DC multifunction plug in. One of the latter has a bad adjustment pot in it…this is the impetus I need to just order it and get it fixed. Really nice meters. Love the easy to read nixie displays.
I've already said it a couple of times, you have the best mixed audio and the best audio quality of any RUclips channel I know. Thank you! People underestimate how important audio is. I'd rather have crappy video than crappy audio, but you do both excellently, I wish you all the best Paul.
All content is valuable. I end up learning something from every video. It is also good to see the in the moment things that happen in the lab. Thanks again Paul for the channel and the class, learning from the fire-hose. It has and continues to be awesome!
Any Mr Carlson is better than no Mr Carlson.
That slogan would make a nice T shirt.
Thank you Paul.
I for one would love to see “Tech-talk” videos mingled in with restoration vids. Variety will be greatly appreciated my friend.
Phil.
So its a “What’s on my bench today”. I like it. A lot
Hey Paul ,
Yes I would love too see this completely gone through and put back in to service !
I would welcome more of these Tech Talk videos.
A full restoration video on the meter would be amazing, but if the alignment is all we get, I'll be just as happy with that.
Side note, that PCB layout is really nice to look at, and the way the cards all slot neatly in the way that they do shows an incredible attention to detail.
RUclips is awesome to watch, because its not like tv. At least certain parts. Its interactive reality. Channels where people share their knowledge in a lesser edited format are the channels i truly enjoy.
I like the format. Keep em coming. Thanks so much.
You make brilliant SOUND on your videos, The Best Audio Processing! Really, you are Master not only of TUBES. Talent man, respect on you!
Thanks for your kind feedback Pav!
You are such a GREAT educator, I would love to watch your complete restoration/alignment video! Always great content. Lou
Love the idea, any information is welcome. Love the videos.
I like the idea because anyone who does any level of electronics repair deals with very fluid situations .
I really like these Tech Talk episodes, Paul. I've been doing this a long time, yet I never fail to learn something of value from your videos. Thanks!
Heck yes. I love this. I treat your videos like I would a discovery channel show, sit back, grab a cuppa and learn, the content is always interesting and you've taught me a heck of a lot. One of the channels I have supported on patreon consistently and I have no regrets from doing so.
I for one will be glad when you get your new shop done, so we get our old Mr. Carlson back.
I like it all. The new series idea and the meter repairs are both interesting.
Paul,
It would be nice to watch you continue with the restoration and alignment of this meter. Great work and love this LEGACY equipment. :-)
I really enjoyed this format. Made me feel like i am at some lecture somewhere, drinking a cup of coffee and enjoying. Thank you Mr.Carlson :)
Loved this "Tech Talk" Mr. C. Would love to have more of these!!!
Mr. Carlson is the "Ross" of RUclips when it comes to audio repair content.
As long as I am learning something each time then I’m happy whichever format your videos are in!
Now THIS is my kinda video! Love solid state electronics. Very cool idea also about the PIP.
I will watch anything you post.
I have quite a few HP oldies (analyzer and signal gen) and I know that back in the days they sold special covers with holes right above trim pots to overcome temperature stability problem now we have to try our own way to do so. I like this new format a lot keep it up! thanks for sharing :-)
Tech talk is good because it shows your broad experience and also your thought processes when diagnosing ... the flir was a nice touch.. as was spotting the cooked resistors... I'm loving this format so keep it up please... 🤗
From the Emerald Isle
😎👍☘️🍺
Impressive vintage equipment !
Tech Talk is a great idea! Will enjoy them, with my favourite beverage in hand! :)
Mr. Carlson, you have definitely renewed my appreciation for old electronic test equipment! Thank you! I definitely like the Tech Talk format. Very informative!
Don't worry about the RUclips algorithms. Keep making the great content!!! I'm considering your courses!
Old HP meter's crust ! , this might be the secret ingredient in the super-serum to become a genius greaybeard repair technician ! .
Hmm , Mr. Carlson , what other secrets are you hiding ? ;-) .
Greetings Mr. Carlson! I checked my video subscriptions and found this posted only 25 seconds previously. Definitely prefer a different beverage...coffee is, IMHO, the most vile fluid on the face of the earth. But I do love the way you make sense of electronics. Someone like you in my very distant and non-internet youth could have easily changed the course of my life.
Mr Carlson I do the same with my projects some get priority over others and I look forward to seeing more of these Tech talks Sencore company used to put out tech talk and a bunch of repair shops in my area would meet once a month .
Please, more of these...
Hi Paul - Thanks for the general 'run-thru' of the HP DVM - Interesting how the 'Boffins' solved, with accuracy the technicalities involved when there was none of the components that we have today. - Enjoyed. 73, de Tony in S-Africa ...
I liked this format as Well. Please keep it up Mr Carlson
Great idea on the "tech talk series" I'm sure everyone will appreciate all the knowledge your able to share with us. Thanks appreciate your time.
