    When i was a kid the first tube i had to play with was a 6sn7..the only thing i did was turn on the filament but it helped my interest as an adult in fixing old tube radios..thank you shango for reviving that memory..😊

    Now I am not saying we were dirt poor when I was a kid living on the farm, but we were damn close. We learned to eat cotton tail rabbits for supper when food was short. Mom's garden was tended by we children and mom supervised so we could eat vegitables with our meals. When it was time for a good supper, dad would cut the heads off a couple of chickens that we raised so mom could fry them up for some of the best damned fried chicken ever. Well in 59 dad put our farm land in the soil bank, and rented a small farm closer to town because my eldest sister needed to attend High School and our home place was 26 miles from town, the new place was only about 11 miles from town. The new place was cool because it had electric power, new to us as the home place never had that luxery. Also the new place had 2 wells, one for drinking water was just beside the kitchen so carrying in drinking and kitchen water was much easier. Now that we had power, and could turn on a light instantly instead of lighting the kerosene lamps when we needed light, dad figured we should get one of those new fangled television sets. So off to town he went and on main street was a TV Repair shop who had used TV's he took on trade in's, much like car dealers. Dad found a 21 inch black and white then had the TV Guy mount an antenna atop an abandoned 3 story house next to the small farm house we lived in. We could get 2 channels, 3 if the clouds were just right, and every damn ford that drove past our house would cause the screen to flicker in time with the engine. That was my intro to TV'S in 59, the folks had that TV until late in 1971 when at long last dad traded up to a smaller table set as they had moved to town and didn't have room for the floor set.

    It’s amazing how intense the content Id search is on RUclips. It would be great if you could run old shows like Ernie Kovacs,Jack Benny,Highway Patrol,etc on these sets while you worked on them,but it’s not worth the risk.
    Seeing the garbage people watch on tv these days I have to agree with Newton Minnow,tv is a “vast wasteland.” Funny thing is Minnow thought that back in the early 60’s. He hadn’t seen anything yet!
    Oh well,at least if we’re stuck watching this tripe we get to listen to your hilarious commentary. It’s kind of like “mystery science theatre” with informercials.

    I was at estate sale today and I picked up an early 60s Sanyo console stereo. An export model and it has bunch of Japanese writing on the back cover. I ended up getting it for a song. In the main chassis compartment it has in Sanyo branded bag the schematic diagrams. I never new Sanyo sold console stereos back in early 60s in the USA. In fact I didn't know they made console stereos at all.

      Sanyo did made console stereo with build in 4 Track reel to reel tape and record player in early of 1970. I saw it was at the high ends department store in Thailand and it was expensive like $350.00 compared to the US and German manufactured console that sold for $800-1000 at that time. I have not seen TV big screen console TV with AM-FM stero and record player manufactured in Japan and in Asia at that time the largest B&W TV screen was only 14" made by Toshiba! Our first colour TV was Toshiba 14" was purchased from Px in Japan in 1971 and it was stolen from our apartment in Philadelphia not too long after we moved in 1971!

    A few days ago I was watching the Old Movie Grumpy Old men, on of my favourite movies. Before I never got why Max was upset that the neighbour had turned the TV (movie was made in the 1990's) into a fish tank and offered to put the guts back in because he was also a TV repair person before he retired. I even noticed they had him "repairing" a tv during the movie. Until watching your videos I never understood what it took to repair these vintage sets and I grew up only on the Solid State TV's where they Lasted (i'm a Late 80's baby). Even my parents said I had a TV that used to be on a wooden cart fall over on me. One thing I will not miss from these old TV's is the high pitch noises that emitted from them and from time to time they would drive me up the wall especially when there was no other noise around me.

It was Sanyo from Japan with remote control and last until I throw away in 1990. I also, brought a gunsmiths screw driver set from the same channel in Spring of 1984 for $40.00 back then. It was real quality item and shipped it to your door step and no credit card scam at all back then.

    Looking through the tube data sheets the 6W6GT has twice the transconductance as a 6V6GT at 8000 u mhos. The output load of the 6W6GT is 4K in class A whereas the 6V6GT seems to be 5K or higher output load if that would matter. Could be the cause of weak sound.

It was a 1955 Motorola B&W TV with UHF tuner, you had to select ch 4 or 5, then flipped a lever for UHF channels. I learned how fix a TV at 14-15 years old, we use that TV set for a number of years. It too had a hot chassis with Selenium rectifiers and series string filaments.

    That picture tube looks pretty good for such an old TV. If there is ever a chance that an old b&w TV that old cannot be made to work originally I would rather retrofit a modern Tube color TV in the cabinet not a crappy LED rather than making a pet bed out of it. I've been thinking how can it be possible to make a transistor circuit inside an old tube plug to replace all those tired tubes now that would be something and convert it to an all transistor chassis but can be put back original by plugging tubes back in I did that to an old farm radio that required an A and B battery. Retrofitting a more available modern color tube to the old chassis and tie all three guns together and somehow impedance match the newer yoke if the picture Tube needs replacing the old flyback would probably have to be changed to the matching integrated flyback for the yoke. I wouldn't sell it after that I wouldn't want to be responsible for burning someone's house down.

Unfortunately, the original owner ran it without any deflection and burned a spot in the center of the screen. Electrohome was the Canadian equivalent of Admiral or Packard Bell.

    Using a 6V6 where a 6W6 is called for may well be the cause of your weak sound. The 6V6 is made for 250 volts, cathode to plate, and at a lower plate current. The 6W6 has a much larger cathode, and is made for 100-150 volts, at a higher current. In fact, the 6W6 is identical to a 25L6 or 50L6, except for the heater voltage and current. Also, do not operate the TV with the 6SN7 pulled out. The grid of the 6W6 is tied directly to the 6SN7 plate, which sits at about 140 volts when the 6SN7 is conducting. If the 6SN7 is pulled out, or ohterwise not working, the grid of the 6W6 will be at the full 260 volt B+, making the output draw too much current (red plate), and put over 200 volts on the circuits fed from the 150 volt supply. This could cause much damage throughout the TV.

    Is there an impedance mismatch between the TV’s output transformer and the makeshift speaker?

    I get the impression that by the hours on the tubes this set has died a dead of 1000 cuts so to speak

      You can substitute different types of tubes, or even make solid state replacements! Just because you can't find parts doesn't mean you can't get creative! Shango taught me nothing is impossible to fix, merely a matter of the amount of effort involved.

    Thanks shango. Tiny amounts of 'HSN' is fair price for new words and what you teach.

    regarding the TV shopping channels.. I wondered this recently myself. believe it or not. QVC rakes in billions in sales every year. and no, it's not last years garbage.

    Those channels have some of the best deals for prepaid smartphones. I mostly use mine for the smart features instead of talk, text, and data. Like everything else, the content has went down the drain on those channels.

    This would make one hell of a project.
    And no, I've never met anyone who's bought crap from shopping channels. It all looks so cheap and tacky, or a con. Give me ebay every time. :)

    Greetings from Cape Town, where black lives matter. TV only came to this part of the world in late 1974, early 1975, using the PAL colour system, and by then everything was solid state, so no tube sets here.

    I just got an ancient firestone deluxe set and I think it will work if I can replace a can capacitor. It's labeled 45x420 can anyone tell me what that means and what kind of capacitor I need to replace it? Cap gets waaay too hot I've never turned the thing on for more than a few seconds im afraid it will explode if I don't change it.

    I was thinking the same exact thing before you said it. I’m sure most of the viewers were too.
