Honestly a 30 minute video isn't long for people with the understanding of the technology and enjoys the type of videos like this, with us watching you diagnose and repair electronics of different sorts. I would say that the only people that has an issue with a video being 45 minutes to one hour long are the people that have an attention span no longer than 10 seconds, usually it's people that spend all their time on social media, Instagram, etc. those types. The people lack the proper knowledge, skill sets, attention span, fundamental aspects of electronics in general... basically they do not even have any business being on your video in the first place if they are complaining or dislike the fact a video is longer than 10 to 25 minutes. I actually prefer longer more detail oriented and intricate videos so that I can prop me feet up, lean back, and enjoy the deep dive into the details and troubleshooting.
I prefer the longer, in depth videos. I avoid a video if it`s time is listed as less than five minutes (other channels) unless it promises information that I know can be explained in that short time. I have noticed that most people seem to prefer the shorter videos avoiding the longer ones. I`m not sure if this a symptom of or the cause of most peoples technical understanding going downhill. Any video from DiodeGoneWild will be a great video to watch, no matter how long!
@@snakezdewiggle6084 I have always been of the opinion that if the viewer thinks the video is too long, they can always skip to the part that interests them. Better to have too much information in a video than not enough. Diode G W has a great webpage as well as RUclips vids. He has almost every computer PSU circuit diagram, which has been an especially good resource for me. Just do a googler search for his name, Danyk and the word electronics. It should get you there.
It's my least understood complaint in all RUclips videos. The length of the video is displayed on the thumbnail. It's not like people are being tricked; they're being given the information, ignoring it, then complaining. 🤷♂ And I don't know how one would create a video about fixing an oscilloscope that's short, unless the problem was just a blown fuse? Anyways, I appreciate the long-form videos.
Thanks for putting the bloody effort into videos like this! I'm just a hobbyist, but I always learn a lot from watching your videos. Please know that your hard work is definitely appreciated.
Massive thanks for your support! I'm glad I can teach someone what I've learnt in 3 decades. It's also nice to see people are still interested in these timeless machines :).
That video was worth my annual patreon subscription alone, fantastic. Next time one of my gadgets goes awry I'll just submerge the entire assembly in contact cleaner. The errant CRT display bought back memories of the sixties when, after the national anthem at the end of the evening's transmission, a white dot would appear on the SRT screen when we turned the set off. We would all sit staring at the dot, mesmerized, until it eventually faded.
I would watch every video you make even if they would be 2 hours long, I admire your knowledge and experience around all this stuff and love to learn from it myself, your videos are educating and thorough and you should keep it like this, smart people that knows what all this work is about share the same opinion, we want to learn together. and the other people that don´t know anything about this stuff won´t like the video even if it would be a minute long. But everyone else enjoys it and won´t mind a long video as we are here to learn from it. keep up the good videos and don´t be afraid to put in valuable extra details and time. I´m here for it
The hunt for the problems is intriguing and engaging. Now I am really looking forward to the next installment. Plus we got the bonus of both the dog and the cat. I liked your description of Tesla cars 😀
Interesting that grey mains suppression filter is a common item in those Tesla appliances. Nicely made oscilloscope. Great to have access to the electrical diagrammes. Those socketed transistors are awesome. Great fault finding. Love the longer videos.
Yes, the TC241 filter is in just about everything. It's in my bench power supply, in the two multimeters with nixies, in this oscilloscope... it's sad they chose to put a paper capacitor in it, instead of polyester or polypropylene!
Hats off to your effort, and that wasn't very long video, it was very interesting indeed, i'm looking forward for the next part/s. Also hats off to the electronic engineers who made these kind of stuff, nowadays ic's solve the most difficult and complex parts of an electronic circuit, you have to appreciate the infinite knowledge those man had back in the day.
Yes, It's hard to imagine how they even designed something so complex. The successor of BM556, the BM566 and BM566A, are even more complex, almost 200 transistors. Two separate time bases, 120 MHz bandwidth. And still allegedly designed all by just 1 person!
@@DiodeGoneWild If the scopes were really made by one person is completely mindblowing, if i had to guess i would say at least 5 people were needed to make these gear, nowadays you need a team of 10 people to design a bridge rectifier lol, that's why everything is so expensive. Moreover nowadays pcbs are made in software which makes everything way way way easier, imagine at that time develop the circuit, arrange the parts in the pcb and make the traces all by hand and just with single layer available and with the smallest footprint possible! Not to mention all wiring, metalwork, and handcraft. Even today 120MHz is not that low end, i imagine they cost at their time a modern equivalent of about $10000. I think i never saw a scope with two time bases, however Dave Jones from eevBlog once mentioned dual time base. By the way, i really admire your building skills, you are the modern equivalent of those old school ENGINEERS as you proved in the sstc and many other projects :)
i bet you'd be surprised how many people would be just fine with a long a$$ video as long as its you doing this. I could watch you breaking down schematics and diagnosing equipment for like... ever. I didn't go to school for EE and other than being quite knowledgeable in physics i am almost completely self taught on RUclips and I've learned more from your channel than all others combined...
We had to carry out regular heater voltage measurements on a travelling wave tube amplifier that had the cathode and the heater at -12kV, the meter was placed on a big block of polystyrene foam on top of a plastic chair and the meter leads held off the ground with another plastic chair. Reading the meter was a little tricky as we wouldn't risk getting within a couple of metres of it!
Very interesting, good fault finding analysis as usual! I will catch up on the next video. I myself am struggling now with a ham band transceiver with multiple PLLs out of lock..
I always found that the best transistor for that purpose was a bf196 (lockfit). It gave the best audio response when the af was fed into the base. Nostalgia!
Looks like most of the scope functions are actually working. Pretty good for the old CZ girl. I see some elements from Tektronix scopes of the seventies. Nice FET front end. Good luck with repair! Currently restoring a Polish V640 FET multimeter from early 80's. Why? Was cheap and broken and corroded from leaking batteries.
There is nothing wrong with these long videos. This video I did not notice that it was 34 minutes until I finished it because it is actually fun to watch. I also want to see a video about your set of tungsten lamps and turning them all on and seeing them in action.
Thank you. It is great to see how you think through the problems. One thing I'm surprised not to see is any steps to discharge any residual HV. Could you please please address that in your follow-up?
Well, the positive anode voltage doesn't really need to be discharged, because there's no spot where it would be exposed. No risk of touching it when working on it. It would only be a concern in disconnecting the CRT anode connection. And the two negative high voltage supplies have discharging resistors. The capacitors discharge quickly, they are just tens of nF.
It has only one focus control. The other one which seemingly affects focus is an astigmatism control. I think the CRT has a separate electrode for it, it has to be adjusted until the dot is nice and round, instead of elliptical. This control on most oscilloscopes is either only a trimmer that can be accessed only after removing the cover, or it is accessible through a hole on the front panel or side panel. It drives me crazy that they put a knob on it, it is absolutely unnecessary because it only rarely needs to be adjusted. I will remove that knob from my BM566 because I often adjust that accidentally instead of the focus control. I will probably cut the shaft off of the pot, and make a slot on it, so it only could be adjusted with a screwdriver.
Если схема синхронизации построена на туннельном диоде, то там есть проблема: со временим ток покоя туннельного диода уплывает и перестаёт работать синхронизация. Если это так, то нужно просто подобрать новое сопротивление смещающего резистора диода и всё будет работать.
You are wise to mention the plastic automaker in this video- the comments generated will game the algorithm and accidentally, some people might learn about troubleshooting repairable electronics!
This isn't dual beam but there were a few Soviet dual beam CRTs, like the 13LO48I and the 16LO2V. There's also the 13LN8 which is a dual beam direct view storage tube used in the S8-17 oscilloscope.
S tím triggerem ti držím palce, doufej že to není odstřelená tunelka GE134. S páječkou se k ní ani nepřibližuj, stačí malé teplo a rozletí se vejpůl, je pájená dohromady 😃Prvně bych dostal spouštěcí signál z malé desky pod pakeťákem časovky, pak se případně vrtal kolem tunelky.
@DiodeGoneWild Any idea how to fix the line not display horizontal? The fuse in my oscilloscope blew and after recovery, the line isn't horizontal anymore. Unfortunately I don't have the schematic to look at. I assume it has to do with the board that control the tube but doesn't know where to start.
Hello sir, I bought a Promax OD 540 oscilloscope at low cost. But it doesn't work. When power on, all led lights up. Constantly alarming, can't find any manual on the oscilloscope. Looking forward to your advice.
Nice! It doesn't look easy to get that thing running and also the "custom made" components by the manufacturer, such as that "stereo potentiometer" with 2 different ranges, isn't that fun to deal with. But it will be interesting to follow
It needs adjusting of the balans if the trace "zero" jumps around while changing V/div. Without input you should not see a trace because there is no trigger signal. That is why there is "auto" trigger.
Does the HV transformer in the oscilloscope look like a TV flyback? I have only seen scopes with 50 Hz iron core transformers with n*100 V winding for the voltage multiplier.
Depends on the age, very old ones were mains derived but the newer ones use what looked like a small flyback or other small ferrite transformer. You may not see it as it may be potted or covered in an EMC screen.
can u help me to diagnose my oscilloscope problem with readout never show on screen buat if i turn on 1 hour readout show on the screen, oscilloscope gw istek gs625
Great video, but I need to add that it's not a good idea to spray contact cleaner into an oscilloscope, especially into the Y divider. The oil can seep in-between the plates of the compensation capacitors, changing their capacitance a lot, it can screw up the aligment so bad that even a 1kHz square wave will look bad. Soaking oil into the phenolic boards of the wafer switches in the Y divider can have a similar effect. I started using a 100MHz Kikusui oscilloscope at work about 15 years ago, and did not understand why it is so horrible, the slope and edge of square wave looked different in each sensitivity setting. Then my colleague told me the scope needs contact cleaning annually, because the range switch is flaky in it. The compensation got screwed up by the oil from the contact cleaner.
I used WD40 contact cleaner for sensitive electronics on all the controls and some sliding switches on my scope. It leaves no oil or residue.I used some deoxit on the rotary switches.
Well, you're right, but the sensitivity switch was so stuck, it was either a bucket of contact cleaner or a hammer. I hope most of the contact cleaner went into the switch and the shaft bearings. The capacitors are outside of the shielding box. If it got into the capacitors, I probably could flood them with a brake cleaner, it evaporates with no residue.
@@DiodeGoneWild Yes, brake cleaner might help if it went into the capacitors. I have to replace a bunch of the compensation trimmers in my BM566, because they are broken, most likely from the factory!
... at least, all boards are for the same scope, i have a romanian scope built in 1991-1992, but using boards and parts from 1985-1988, and, more badly, boards and parts from 3 or 4 different scopes! :) so, a Frankenstein, with a lot of undocumented adaptions and matchings... sweet! :D
I would like to old oscilloscope no complicated curcuit board ,understanding simple stages ,very rare oscilloscope . If it produce again it will be get that, more demanding,for technician .😂 I see it had a schematic diagram , try to it makes again ,😂❤❤ GodBless❤
@@NewMicroElectronics-yv1ek think to... uhm, multiple transistors in the same package! :D i think there was even some of those... 4-5 transistors in an 14 or 16 pin IC package, used mainly for measurement and generators...
Ďakujem za toto video a mne sa páčilo, že bolo také dlhšie, lebo tam bolo mnoho zaujímavého obsahu a budem sa tešiť na ďalšiu časť. Ak ti môžem poradiť čo sa týka tých objímok na tranzistory, tak som si všimol, že na tých objímkach je výstupok (plastový) tam, kde má tranzistor tiež výstupok (kovový), takže podľa toho sa podľa môjho názoru dá orientovať, len by som si pred vytiahnutím každého tranzistora (samozrejme len tých, ktoré bude treba vytiahnuť) pre istotu overil či tie výstupky súhlasia, niekde mohol pracovník pri osadzovaní pozabudnúť a nemusel osadiť objímku správne výstupkom súhlasiacim s výstupkom tranzistora, pritom elektricky to môže byť správne aj tak, lebo čo som si všimol, tak tranzistor ide osadiť ľubovolne.
Spoléhat na to nelze. U svého jsem měl nefunkční kanál A, během jiných oprav jsem tranzistory vytáhnul a podle výstupku vrátil. Po mnohých hodinách strávených nad hledáním závady jsem proti osazováku zjistil, že v závodě otočili celou patici špatně, po otočení tranzistoru samozřejmě kanál ožil. Takže vždy podle osazováku, na patice bych ohled nebral 😆
@@teslakovalaborator Súhlasím s tým, že sa na to netreba spoliehať, preto som aj písal, nech si pred vytiahnutím daného tranzistora skontroluje, či výstupok na pätici súhlasí s výstupkom na tranzistore, ale máš pravdu, že podľa osadzovacieho plánu je to najistejšie.
Woohoo! Old capacitor testing coming next! I don't know why I love watching bad capacitors being tested, it's not like the what I see is going to be beneficial in any way shape or form! But watching someone do all the proper capacitor tests and not just ESR is not very common.... To many times I see people who only test for ESR and get a good reading even though I can see from the other side of the screen that it's top is expanded or leaking electrolyte.... And they called it good! There's also a lot of people who test a capacitor for capacity and when it reads over it's rating they think that it's good.... If a capacitor read's over it's rated capacity, it's bad! It's most likely suffering from voltage losses due to high parallel resistance which is also DC biasing whatever is downstream and setting things up for an expensive cascading failure of components that are probably no longer available!... So yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing many capacitors being tested....
Who'd like to fix something made not to be fixable. It's like 10% of the effort to actually fix it and 90% of the effort to overcome the obstacles purely made to stop you from fixing it. No longer enjoyable.
But they should get the schematics :). Or at least, the parts shouldn't have serial numbers specifically not to work without reprogramming using 100 000 USD tools. Modules should not disable themselves after being unplugged and replugged. All these things, that claim to be for safety and against theft, but in reality they are to erradicate DIY, aftermarket parts and 3rd party repair, just to make more money.
@@rkan2 You actually CAN get at least block diagrams for a lot of cars. Not necessarily just online for free, but at least they exist outside the manufacturer's systems.
This BM556 is still not as overcomplicated, only 86 transistors. The newer type BM566 has 173 transistors :). I'd like to find one in a repairable condition some day...
i really love how Tesla is now a pure pun, mainly in DGW's videos!... a czech using Tesla parts, even Tesla was serbian, and the wellknown cars are built in China by a firm owned by a south-african with lots of citizenships... :))))))))))))))
Definitely no problem with extending lenght of video, I was just setting down when things were getting intriguing, you broke off - a part 2 perhaps??

contact me using danyk at centrum dot cz
One knob is probably focus, the other is astigmatism.
Probably yes. One has a lot of effect, the other one only has a small effect.
Great video, but I need to add that it's not a good idea to spray contact cleaner into an oscilloscope, especially into the Y divider. The oil can seep in-between the plates of the compensation capacitors, changing their capacitance a lot, it can screw up the aligment so bad that even a 1kHz square wave will look bad. Soaking oil into the phenolic boards of the wafer switches in the Y divider can have a similar effect. I started using a 100MHz Kikusui oscilloscope at work about 15 years ago, and did not understand why it is so horrible, the slope and edge of square wave looked different in each sensitivity setting. Then my colleague told me the scope needs contact cleaning annually, because the range switch is flaky in it. The compensation got screwed up by the oil from the contact cleaner.
I used WD40 contact cleaner for sensitive electronics on all the controls and some sliding switches on my scope. It leaves no oil or residue.I used some deoxit on the rotary switches.
Well, you're right, but the sensitivity switch was so stuck, it was either a bucket of contact cleaner or a hammer. I hope most of the contact cleaner went into the switch and the shaft bearings. The capacitors are outside of the shielding box. If it got into the capacitors, I probably could flood them with a brake cleaner, it evaporates with no residue.
@@DiodeGoneWild Yes, brake cleaner might help if it went into the capacitors. I have to replace a bunch of the compensation trimmers in my BM566, because they are broken, most likely from the factory!
👍👍

Love your videos !
... and your accent as well.
Thank you very much !
... at least, all boards are for the same scope, i have a romanian scope built in 1991-1992, but using boards and parts from 1985-1988, and, more badly, boards and parts from 3 or 4 different scopes! :)
so, a Frankenstein, with a lot of undocumented adaptions and matchings... sweet! :D
@DiodeGoneWild Meh who cares Daniel tjat video is getting long.. We love yours bloody long repair videos and sense of humour too.. 😎😎
i have been turning volume down just in case every time you powered it :D
I'm getting a broken tek crt Analog scope off a friend and I'm gonna try to fix it and mod it into a cuve tracer. I shall be bugging you Dany.
I think you used too little contact cleaner. I think it needs more contact cleaner.
Maybe moar salt too?
Instead of put contact cleaner in the scope, the scope should be put in contact cleaner 😅
I would like to old oscilloscope no complicated curcuit board ,understanding simple stages ,very rare oscilloscope . If it produce again it will be get that, more demanding,for technician .😂 I see it had a schematic diagram , try to it makes again ,😂❤❤ GodBless❤
If you want a very simple oscilloscope, look for example at the schematic of BM370. Just 3 tubes :).
@@DiodeGoneWild what is 3 tube ? Please explain again ,🤔
@@NewMicroElectronics-yv1ek think to... uhm, multiple transistors in the same package! :D i think there was even some of those... 4-5 transistors in an 14 or 16 pin IC package, used mainly for measurement and generators...
Even more contact cleaner!
Ďakujem za toto video a mne sa páčilo, že bolo také dlhšie, lebo tam bolo mnoho zaujímavého obsahu a budem sa tešiť na ďalšiu časť. Ak ti môžem poradiť čo sa týka tých objímok na tranzistory, tak som si všimol, že na tých objímkach je výstupok (plastový) tam, kde má tranzistor tiež výstupok (kovový), takže podľa toho sa podľa môjho názoru dá orientovať, len by som si pred vytiahnutím každého tranzistora (samozrejme len tých, ktoré bude treba vytiahnuť) pre istotu overil či tie výstupky súhlasia, niekde mohol pracovník pri osadzovaní pozabudnúť a nemusel osadiť objímku správne výstupkom súhlasiacim s výstupkom tranzistora, pritom elektricky to môže byť správne aj tak, lebo čo som si všimol, tak tranzistor ide osadiť ľubovolne.
Spoléhat na to nelze. U svého jsem měl nefunkční kanál A, během jiných oprav jsem tranzistory vytáhnul a podle výstupku vrátil. Po mnohých hodinách strávených nad hledáním závady jsem proti osazováku zjistil, že v závodě otočili celou patici špatně, po otočení tranzistoru samozřejmě kanál ožil. Takže vždy podle osazováku, na patice bych ohled nebral 😆
@@teslakovalaborator Súhlasím s tým, že sa na to netreba spoliehať, preto som aj písal, nech si pred vytiahnutím daného tranzistora skontroluje, či výstupok na pätici súhlasí s výstupkom na tranzistore, ale máš pravdu, že podľa osadzovacieho plánu je to najistejšie.
Multi episodes, 25 to 30 minutes, seems to cover the widest audience on other channels.

Woohoo! Old capacitor testing coming next!
I don't know why I love watching bad capacitors being tested, it's not like the what I see is going to be beneficial in any way shape or form!
But watching someone do all the proper capacitor tests and not just ESR is not very common....
To many times I see people who only test for ESR and get a good reading even though I can see from the other side of the screen that it's top is expanded or leaking electrolyte.... And they called it good!
There's also a lot of people who test a capacitor for capacity and when it reads over it's rating they think that it's good.... If a capacitor read's over it's rated capacity, it's bad! It's most likely suffering from voltage losses due to high parallel resistance which is also DC biasing whatever is downstream and setting things up for an expensive cascading failure of components that are probably no longer available!...
So yeah, I'm looking forward to seeing many capacitors being tested....
Yes, definitely some testing in the next episode ;). It will be public tomorrow, my Patrons can already see it.
Tbh I really want to see DWG fix some Tesla Motors product. I know he enjoys his share of fixing his country's automotive products!
Who'd like to fix something made not to be fixable. It's like 10% of the effort to actually fix it and 90% of the effort to overcome the obstacles purely made to stop you from fixing it. No longer enjoyable.
@@DiodeGoneWild In reality Teslas are not any less fixable than other cars. It is not like you get schematics for other cars...
But they should get the schematics :). Or at least, the parts shouldn't have serial numbers specifically not to work without reprogramming using 100 000 USD tools. Modules should not disable themselves after being unplugged and replugged. All these things, that claim to be for safety and against theft, but in reality they are to erradicate DIY, aftermarket parts and 3rd party repair, just to make more money.
@@rkan2 You actually CAN get at least block diagrams for a lot of cars. Not necessarily just online for free, but at least they exist outside the manufacturer's systems.
@@DiodeGoneWild 100% agree
😔😞 friends ....
Hah first time I’ve spotted the burn mark before Dany!
What do I win?

Hi Daniel!

That's the most complicated brightness control ever 😅
This BM556 is still not as overcomplicated, only 86 transistors. The newer type BM566 has 173 transistors :). I'd like to find one in a repairable condition some day...
Made by Tesla. Not to be confused with that car company, Tossler? 😜
i really love how Tesla is now a pure pun, mainly in DGW's videos!... a czech using Tesla parts, even Tesla was serbian, and the wellknown cars are built in China by a firm owned by a south-african with lots of citizenships... :))))))))))))))

When the content is interesting why not make it as long as necessary.
Definitely no problem with extending lenght of video, I was just setting down when things were getting intriguing, you broke off - a part 2 perhaps??
Your manipulation struggles with need for extra hands, have you thought of employing your cat (obviously of high intelligence😽) to lend a helping paw! Doggie might help but perhaps cannine intellectual capacity not so profound.😂
You were way more fun before , u talked louder. You're toooo quiet right now
