I really love & enjoy all your work - and your massive knowledge - with one exception...: your soldering... I might be wrong, maybe it's hard to tell from the perspective of my laptops screen, but a LOT of these solderjoints look like proper cold joints to me, e.g. those at the fuse @13:20... And, a fuse, that is not properly installed with a fuse holder, is probably carrying mains and is "glued" to a switch looks fuckin dangerous to me...
How did you get started ,and how long have you been doing radio repairs ? You make it look so easy. Thanks for another great video. Would enjoy hearing about your electronis history.
Great to see you again Ron! You're repair vids are the best. So informative and I'm always amazed at your talents with electronics. It's interesting that chassis is one of the few farm sets from the '30's that has a constant dial lamp that I have seen. By the way Ron, it looks like the repro knobs are the correct one for Zenith models with that chassis. They were Bakelite with and octagonal design. A departure from the typical wooden type. The wood "pinch" knobs would be incorrect.
Salutes, Ron. Another interesting and informative video! I have a 1953 Chevy Car radio that someone converted to work off of 120 volts. The transformer gets warm, but the radio plays fine. I have it near my electronic work bench as a reminder of my first car a 53 Chevrolet I purchased in 1966 for 75 bucks. The radio speaker was mounted in a chrome dash, and boy, it sounded good...........
This looks like a... Zenith Model 4-B-131 Tombstone Farm Radio (1936)? Popular shows... Jack Benny Program; Rudy Vallee Show; Gangbusters; Fibber McGee & Molly; Lowell Thomas News Ron, please make a video on how you got started in electronics and your background jobs. Such as, making vacuum tubes. I think many people would enjoy the story. 😎 Great repair video.
Ron, the problems you encounter may make the repairs more frustrating for you, but they’re great learning experiences for many of us (plus, your reactions are always entertaining)!
And now you know why i won't pay a lot for old radios, mice chews, open transformers, crumbly rubber wires, bad caps, ripped up speakers, hack job past repairs. ☹️
Also, you can tell when Someone knows what they are doing, when they chop out a load of wires with no colour coding and then they solder in a load of new wires with no colour coding!
That is exactly what i usually end up with in my tube amplifier builds, bulky and heavy, but it get the job done... Don't ask me why i always hawe to add in some strange and unusualy powerhungry tube rectifiers in the very end of an, almost finished bild... ha ha!
I sure wish I had some of your valuable knowledge working with radios, I come from industrial electronics and process instrument trade background but RF circuits are a mystery to me. Also working knowledge around tube circuits is a vanishing art, a friend of mine who is getting on a bit in years is a former military radio and radar technician and has helped me in restoring an old tube radio set.
Thank you Ron, I have a 39 Philips made in North America that needs the same mod, those dam vibrators are nasty. Love your fuse arrangement and the switch cleaner port trick, I will remember that.
Hi Ron your tech friend Dave another amazing video you do such good work you do good professional work I like your style can't wait to see another may God keep you safe and bless you always your friend a thank you
I would have left it original and just built a 6 volt power supply if I wanted it to operate. AC radios are a dime a dozen but working battery radios are harder to find.
@@JamesEncliffe shame on you. He took a refinished radio with multiple failed components that virtually nobody in their right mind would want to mess with, and made it useful again.
Is it just me, or does it look like the dial pointer is upside down? Specifically, the Z looks like the big part is on top... I would think that when the pointer is straight up/down, the Z should look just like the one printed on the face. Granted, I don't see this pointer up close for long in the video... best view is probably at 0:42... but it may be the camera angle or something.
Eu sou técnico em eletrônica, e sei muito bem as dificuldades que é trabalhar nesse ramo. Principalmente aqui no Brasil. Nos E.U.A as dificuldades não são muitas. Aqui no Brasil um osciloscopio custa o preço de um carro semi-novo.
Good day sweetheart? Its great to see you back with a new video. I watched all of your other one so much i think i wore them out lol lol My Nephew made his crystal radio Thanks to you of encouraging him. .....If you know of anyone i could send the picture of the BIG tube i have so they can show it to you, That would be great. God Bless Miss and Have a beautiful day....
Hello everyone? if any of you can post a picture on your youtube channel, Let me know if you would post a picture of a tube so glasslinger can see it. I can't because you have to have so many video before youtube will let you post a picture....
Another Zenith farm radio conversion . This is a model 4-B-131 with chassis 5406. Not an easy radio to work on since rodents got to an IF transformer! Ron's cat loves supervising. Restoring it with new replacement caps and properly measured resistors would be next but it would make a very long video. Another excellent conversion to AC power Ron.
Thank you for this video, I know some tube theory, and I am just starting on my first restoration. But seeing the simple practical way you fault-found I am sure will be invaluable.
Love those old Zenith radios especially the ones with the Magic Eye and about 57 knobs. Surprised you would drill/hammer on that with the tubes still installed.
Glass linger my hobbies are painting pictures 🖼 and listening to shortwave and ssb and I have 5 shortwave receivers iam thinking about getting my ham license
I have an old Silvertone something like that. It is a combination 110V or Battery. When I restored it a few years ago, I fixed the vibrator part too. I simply wanted to understand how that part worked. Kinda fun to run it on battery when the power is out!
I'm amazed that you made it work again ron :-D That radio was a pile of corrupted crap!!. The person that was supposed to make it better is an Asshole!!. He needs a good slapping lol.
Looks like he was a good woodworker, but should not have touched the electronics. I had a bodywork guy neighbor that restored a 70 mustang. Took every last connector apart and painted the terminals silver. Electrical nightmare.
@@sometimesleela5947 You are right, the wood looked ok. For terminals on cars i would use a small brass brush to make both sides clean and bright, then tighten the other terminal so it was a tight fit. Wd40 could be sprayed on the terminals, keeps most of the damp out. But that's just my way.
Hello Miss? are you still doing ok? i can't find anyone that works on radio just like you with out 15 mins of bull shit bla bla bla in the video If you know anyone that is like you could you let me know please. Most people that repairs old radio they want to bla bla bla the first 15 or 20 min that bla bla another 10 or 15 min I want to watch action just like your videos... bless your heart Miss....
Nice to see your work! The soldering gun impressed me. Bougt a chinese Weller solder gun only 160 W and it is slow. And your screwdrivers remember me about 50 th my father have the same. Here in sweden many radios are lokal. Not so much US made but some Marconi stuff from England. Keep going with your good work! You inspired me a lot.
Thanks for a great video, Ron, you do some fantastic work. I'm in the UK and lived on a small farm along with my family in Yorkshire. I was about 4, but at the time we'd just moved there and didn't have mains electricity. It would have been 1954. Some of my early memories are of a man turning up every week in a Morris Minor van, and replacing the wet battery of our radio. So, it seems we had farm radios in England too! Happy days!
Great to see you back! A couple of questions, why don’t you use rivets to replace the ones you drill out to replace components? Also, the first time I ever saw someone scraping the capacitor leads. Why do you need to do that?
Screws are easier. The cap leads are corroded. Most of my old components have been around for 20-30 years or so which causes gray corrosion on the leads.
@@glasslinger And modern SMD caps from the 80' 90's leaked and died as early as 2 or 3 years but that one was still holding its juice, lol. I thought there was a 60 cycle hum later in the video so maybe that power supply caps needed some more attention after all.
🤣"Junk" ... this was one of the funniest episodes I have watched on this channel... and - btw - being able to recognize in a second what is "junk" is so cool. 😀
"Ultimately I got some job like converting a DC set into an AC set, and it was very hard to keep the hum from going through the system, and I didn't build it quite right. I shouldn't have bitten that one off, but I didn't know. " - R. P. Feynman from the Chapter One 'He Fixes Radios by Thinking!' of the memoir Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman
This video has EVERYTHING I love to see in a Glasslinger video! Beautiful radio, super-sleuthing troubleshooting (with accompanying cuss words) and visits from The Supervisor, who is only too happy to come in and share what's on her mind. I love this stuff, thanks again for sharing!
Nice to see another video Ron and interesting to see a conversion like this done.
Great to see Ron back in action.

Since the vibrator makes an artificial sine wave, does that mean that the heaters are meant to be operated off of alternating current?😮
The vibrator was needed with a transformer to step up the 6V to the higher B positive for the plate side of the tubes.

📻 Excellent maintenance from the past to the future.😊
Thank You Ron for presenting us another excellent video! Top class as usual! 👌👍
Nice work Ron, glad to see you back on the saddle.
Brilliant Ron, thoroughly enjoyed that. You are a freaking genius.
Thanks for this educational video.
Nice job Ron a treat to watch
O my God, Welcome back Miss. I hope you know we the people missed toy so much!
Ron’s back! ❤
I probably would have changed the other paper caps as well while I was in there
can't believe you do not have the knob ! I know you have thousands of knobs
Just as easy as that, though it is never easy you make it look easy enough. Thanks for the great vid :)
Hi Ron.. nice to see you back again.. we dont see you often enough.. Great video..
Great video. It turned into a near restoration. Picked up some valuable information. Thanks for the education. JT
дед, рад тебя видеть. лет 6 тебя на смотрел.
Thank you for what you do. May you repair many more radios
Another outstanding job 👍👍👍👍
It sort of works but would anyone want to listen to it for long with that level of hum and scratchy speaker.
I think the power supply smoothing capacitor is too small in value, maybe a series inductance would block some of the buzz.
@@zx8401ztv ...
I agree.
good girl ron nice to see you back
Nice to see your work! The soldering gun impressed me. Bougt a chinese Weller solder gun only 160 W and it is slow. And your screwdrivers remember me about 50 th my father have the same.
Here in sweden many radios are lokal. Not so much US made but some Marconi stuff from England.
Keep going with your good work! You inspired me a lot.
Thanks for a great video, Ron, you do some fantastic work. I'm in the UK and lived on a small farm along with my family in Yorkshire. I was about 4, but at the time we'd just moved there and didn't have mains electricity. It would have been 1954. Some of my early memories are of a man turning up every week in a Morris Minor van, and replacing the wet battery of our radio. So, it seems we had farm radios in England too! Happy days!
Great to see you back! A couple of questions, why don’t you use rivets to replace the ones you drill out to replace components? Also, the first time I ever saw someone scraping the capacitor leads. Why do you need to do that?
Screws are easier. The cap leads are corroded. Most of my old components have been around for 20-30 years or so which causes gray corrosion on the leads.
@@glasslinger And modern SMD caps from the 80' 90's leaked and died as early as 2 or 3 years but that one was still holding its juice, lol. I thought there was a 60 cycle hum later in the video so maybe that power supply caps needed some more attention after all.
🤣"Junk" ... this was one of the funniest episodes I have watched on this channel... and - btw - being able to recognize in a second what is "junk" is so cool. 😀
Good to see you ron! Hope alls well!
Ron, you are 'The Best'
Great !!! The Best of the best. !!!
"Ultimately I got some job like converting a DC set into an AC set, and it was very hard to keep the hum from going through the system, and I didn't build it quite right. I shouldn't have bitten that one off, but I didn't know. " - R. P. Feynman from the Chapter One 'He Fixes Radios by Thinking!' of the memoir Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman
There was a radio made by BUSH Electronics that used vacuum tubes and would run of mains or battery.
This video has EVERYTHING I love to see in a Glasslinger video! Beautiful radio, super-sleuthing troubleshooting (with accompanying cuss words) and visits from The Supervisor, who is only too happy to come in and share what's on her mind. I love this stuff, thanks again for sharing!
Nice videos Ron, i enjoy watching and learn a bit... Waves from Argentina my Friend 😊
She's a Beautiful Cat Ron, Me and my wife ,and Baby girl 30 pound Tabby, Means everything to us, She is our Child. God Bless
Any AM radio can be catched in USA?
Mostly.
Thanks for a great video Ron ! I miss our go to repair whiz Mr.Finkbeiner who passed last year.
Nice restoration
Super ❤❤❤
