    That Radio Shack Nascar scanner was intended to pick up the bands nascar teams would talk on so you could hear them doing their thing at a race.

    • @GinnyHazleton
      @GinnyHazleton Год назад +7

      I have a newer version of that radio with more bands on it. They can be hooked to a computer and programmed with the driver's name, frequency, and car number. They can be used to scan or you can type in a car number to hear them. You could listen to the officials and the comms driver and pits. Probably not too useful anymore as everything is digital and encrypted now.

    I was using a TV like the 2 at the beginning of the video during my US road trip in early 2000 and I found it at a service station in a trashcan. It got dropped and cracked the PC board. After using a gas soldering iron sitting on the end of the veranda of the station jumping tracks and people watching me I plugged it in the cigarette lighter jack and it jumped right on a station.. nice car tv.

    12JP4 used a little snap button HV connector and had no ion trap so they always have burns. I'm sure yours was replaced with a 12LP4 and they spliced in the more common anode connector.

    When I was just beginning my work life, I worked at a truck plaza in Minnesota pumping fuel and gas We sold those little TV's and 8 track tape players, I was very good at pushing these items and actually got promoted to supervisor in about 4 months for my sales technique. While I never made my profession in sales, it was fun at the time.

    We had a little scope like that built into our Radio Teletype rig. It was used to tune the NSK/FSK signals before transmission. I thought it was cute but never really got a lot of use out of it. The fact that I learned OJT instead of attending the training center on that radio set, I guess I never really knew what the hell it was supposed to do. All I knew was how to operate it, I learned over in nam when they were pulling out troops and not replacing those who went home. I cross trained from switchboards to land line teletype, then to Radio Teletype. It. was a good thing as when I got back to the States and got my sergeant's stripes I got Communications Chief MOS and had my own section.

  • @telocho
    @telocho Год назад +4

    The Norelco will be hard to ressurect. It needs another chassis as TV receiver. The tube inside the Schmidt optics will instanly burn whenever the raster is missing. There is protection circuitry to prevent this, but that can fail too and in general make fault finding difficult. You would at best use a sacrificial tube during fault finding.
    Searching for Protelgram will give lots of info on this. The EHT line transformer is made for 25kV which was high for the time, so it is canned an submerged in oil. Later it was analyzed in a lab by someone and it did not contain PCB’s. Dates around 1948-1953. I have myself a Philips TX701 but in non working state.

    I believe the Chanaylst was unique, you could hook it up to all sections of the receiver, and observing the eye tubes would help identify a defective stage. Quite a feature in its day..................

    I find the test equipment very interesting. I've worked at an electronic company, repairing old fashion tube-color tv and audio.
    I'd liked the audio-division best. I believe that somehow I was good at repairing loudspeakers and amplifiers.
    My interess in Tandberg products really came up, and I bought all my own equipment: Oscilloscope, power supply etc. and then I've got marriaged and all the good stuff went down in the basement until it was flooded.
    I've lost all my components and equipment, so now I'm following youre side every week, and maybe some day I'll get back and build the amplifier I sometimes dream of. Good old fashion discrete components and really high-end stereo sound.
    Also on vinylplayer. Somehow it sounds better in my ears.

    this is a treat - thank you, Shango, for posting.... 1948 Crosley 87CQ radio/record player console with early FM headed for destruction. Five dollars ransom paid. After replacing the missing 5Y3 rectifier and a slow power up, the radio played SW and FM.
    AM? I suspect it was disabled by a technician who foresaw the coming of talk radio..... that's a joke, son.

    Those small Deluxe TV's were all over the place from 1984-1990. They were sold by a couple of dozen brand names. And the good old days, I had a Bearcat 800XLT scanner when I was a teen. I loved listening to cell phones and cordless phones on it. It was very, very entertaining! I may have heard some talk about a drug deal or two, also fights over the phone.
    Gawd! I can only imagine how nasty those TVs with the rat crap smell. 🤢How about resurrecting that TV with the humongous electric chair transformer?

    49:05 Using arcade machines and monitors as a benchmark, I'd say very, very high to wear out a CRT. Most of these arcade machines were run 16 hours a day or more for years on end. Same with monitors. A lot of people just left them on all the time so they didn't have to wait for the boot the next day (in office buildings). Most of them still work fine when they are found. Though, to be fair, monitors and arcade machines went out of current generation in a relatively short time.

    • @bradstearns5384
      @bradstearns5384 Год назад +3

      Arcade crts were made at the same time when house hold crts started lasting longer. My parents had a sears 27" console tv from 84 to 2000 and never had to adjust brightness on it. Damn thing ran for at least 8 hours a day. It had a vertical deflection cap dry up in about 92 that got replaced but that was it. We gave it away to a neighbor in 2000 and it still had a great picture.

    • @tarstarkusz

    Shango: I would implore you not to destroy the RCA Channelyst. These are actually great units and were to a degree the zenith of the radioman's test-bench.
    I would restore it and actually use it. Look up the manual and sales blurps, you will see the utility of the unit. I have one and I really like it!
    As far as choice goes, I favor the little 1" O'scope but everything you got is pretty good and I think you should work on what you want!

    Hit the control grid with a stun gun with the second anode high voltage applied it will rejuvenate it after a blue spark from the gun to the second anode jumps. No kidding I did that to an old Philco that had zero emissions but I used a CCFL tester high voltage probe but I removed the control grid wire first I think it was the green wire. High voltage low current won't do damage to tubes unless it zaps the cathode to heater insulation. That worked better than any rejuvenator equipment I used and its fun to do bwahaha 😆

    Re: Hours/runtime - My parents moved into the house I grew up in in 1980 with a brown plastic-bodied 19" hybrid color Zenith, we didn't replace it until 1993. In the Our-TV-Is-Always-On 80's, it did dinner-to-bed workdays and breakfast-to bed weekends; that comes out to right around 40,000 hours, or nearly 5 years if nonstop. It had only one repair during that time and worked without issue/showed no signs of deterioration for years after that. My mom smoked and we owned cats, so it would've gotten the Flavor Country achievement from the repairman as well.

    I'll be that $250 price was from the 90's or early 2000's. I remember that back then prices were either a firm joke (2x to 4x what it was worth), just barely fair, or seemed good as long as the unit was worse then described. I detested haggling so I couldn't afford much. Didn't buy much either. Not much happened either, compared with what could have gotten going (or actually did get going later).
