    Wow, you have guts Shango, no bullsht there. 1000ft down and up. I and my 11 year old brother scaled up the rebar ladder built into the back side of a dam that was 100 ft high when I was 16, but never considered doing anything like it again. Great video as always. Go for the resurrection. 🤚👊🏻

    Amazing after all that time in the desert sun to still have some life in them. I live in the Deep South close to where Brian lives (radiotvphononut) very humid weather here that would rust away most electronics in a comparatively short time. Thanks for the video and hope you get some rest.

    Miners must watch a lot of old TVs! I'm amazed they can get any sort of signal out in the middle of nowhere. I'm guessing they have a translator or maybe just a huge antenna. I remember the credit card imprint machines too. The last time I actually saw one being used, I was in Norway in 2000.

  • @gregorymalchuk272
    @gregorymalchuk272 4 года назад

    You should give us an update on the Sears Metropolitan, and maybe someday you could go back and get those two wooden case sets whose cabinets had disintegrated. I think you mentioned the mine site owner was in poor health. These deep desert resurrection are the best videos yet.

  • @retroman3075

    Curious if there would be interest in a working TV with that 30 year desert patina? It would definitely be one of a kind; just add a matte or gloss clear coat.

  • @andythrasher5789
    @andythrasher5789 6 лет назад +6

    Was wondering if you'd rescue that Zenith. The theory of tubes getting wet and going to air is 50/50 isn't it? I always enjoy your resurrection videos , and am endlessly thankful your videos are here. It got me back into repairing vintage electronic gear. Thanks Shango.

    Yyyuuppp! I worked a gas station and convenience store in the late eighties. Credit card imprint about a third of the time. Register with departments to ring. Open fuel pumps. Pay attention so no one drives off with your gas! Make coffee, popcorn, hot dogs. Stock shelves. Sell lottery tickets.... Those were the days!

    Just this past summer I bought food from a snack car on a train, for whatever reason didn’t have a credit card terminal and didn’t even have that thing, so the guy just took an imprint of my credit card doing the same thing those things did..... kinda neat in this day and age.......

  • @donh01965

    Dude, you may think they're not "mint" anymore, but you and I are going to be walking through the deserts after the coming apocalypse, searching for bits and pieces to salvage just to make *anything* electronic again from scratch!
    Never mind finding a good CRT intact, even those old paper caps are gonna start lookin' mighty sweet sitting there, all stuck and buried in the mud, when the alternative is smelting our own aluminum to make foil to make a capacitor!... :)

      Godfrey Poon - I’m very well thankyou & I watched his video this morning on the tv. The amount of mud that was on that screen was crazy & he actually got it to work with all the rust & corrosion! I would love to see a flat screen live through what that poor tv has gone through & see if it would still work.
      I hope he does make a follow up video recapping it etc. 👍🏻😀

    (wonder how long until they do a ep were shango066 is seen on youtube and bart or homer fixes/bodges up old tv's and shango066 just goes "well i guess that what you get for bodging thing, now were'd i put that flat heade screw driver i used for testing for shorts to make blue sparks?")
