Neat radio. Your commentary on motorcycles and the risk involved pretty much sums up my feelings on them as well..Never been into motorcycles and don’t understand the appeal,especially given the immense risk. I bought my DeSoto from a guy who was a Quadriplegic. He told me he decided to buy a motorcycle against his wife’s protests and got hit on the freeway 4 days after owning it and now is wheelchair bound for the rest of his life and has to have a caretaker. I know a woman who’s boyfriend was also killed on the freeway driving one to work. As you said,it’s an entirely voluntary risk for the “enjoyment” of riding something where your entire body is exposed going 70-80mph down the freeway alongside cars and trucks,some weighing several tons,many piloted by idiots distracted by their smartphones.
And then you have _noise._ Motorcycles have such incredibly loud mufflers! I hate that loud farting noise, so why would I subject that onto other people?
Not as complex as a TV, but I really enjoy watching the Shango method applied to the kind of things I can work on too. I always pick up something useful and am always entertained. Thanks man.
Oooh, nice Bendix! This cabinet is technically Catalin, some have polished that up, it’s oxidized, is a beautiful green marble style. Last I saw a restored example, they had a $1500 price tag, and they got it. Great stuff!
@@SteveReevesvlogs they have! And when I first saw that model at a local antique shop, on Melrose, in Hollywood, they had a $4000 sticker on it in the late 1990s
Looks like they're collectible enough that repro dial scales are available. I have a brown 526B (octal version) no cracks or warping on the case but the dial is roached, so I haven't put much effort into it yet.
Yeah, you tuned that up really nicely and I was impressed with the sound considering that speaker looked like it had been through the wars and just low level work. It always surprises me how old radios (when AM mattered) can do the sound justice.
That's my kind of salvage operation, smashing a plastic box with a digital electronic device inside to retrieve the power cord and a capacitor. 👍 Did I mention that I like making engineers cry.
Shango,The outside of your radio once looked like the inside and was green marbled. Catalin unfortunately oxidizes,and is very sensitive to humidity and temperature and darkens. The case also becomes brittle when exposed to heat. You can restore it by using plastic polish.
It was neat hearing you mention Bendix Brakes. My dad was a Tool & Die Maker and then worked in Layout & Design at one of their big factories that became Allied Signal.
My grandparents house was built in the 1920's. It had an outside wash house for the gas powered Maytag wringer washing machine. You start it with a foot pedal.
An intact Catalin is one heck of a find! Regarding the Mica domino caps, more recently I've found while they may still work, they've usually drifted in value and become lossy. I do live in a humid climate so that may have a lot to do with it. I now test all of them in the radios I do, both for leakage, capacitance, and most importantly D value. Comparing to a new mica cap really makes you realize how bad some of them get. Replacing these aging caps(especially ones used in tuned circuits) really helps performance in a lot of cases. I always enjoy your videos, thank you for the quality edutainment!
@@rustygoldrepairs6555 Is that the ability of the dielectric to store energy? I have a Heathkit IT-28 LCR bridge and leakage meter. It has what they call power factor loss, which I understand is just a crude measure of series resistance in an electrolytic capacitor. I have an Excelvan M6013 auto-ranging capacitance meter, but it just tests capacitance only. I have two ESR meters, MESR-100 digital meter with alligator clips, and just got the Capacitor Wizard which is much easier to use and quick. The digital one measures lower resistance however, down to 0.001 ohms. Maybe I need a better LCR meter? I was thinking of one with variable frequencies. You can never have too many meters😁
@@zulumax1 Yes, D value and ESR are essentially one in the same, just expressed differently. One is a measure of loss and the other is a measure of resistance which causes this loss. I have an older B&K LCR meter that shows D value instead of ESR. I check micas on the highest frequency, 1khz in my case. If your MESR-100 is good with small value caps then it should work well for these micas. I've found the LCR-T4 to do great with small value caps and its very inexpensive. The important thing is to get an idea for how a good new one tests on your equipment, then compare to the suspect ones. I agree, there is no such thing as too many meters!
@@rustygoldrepairs6555 100kHz is what both ESR meters use. Thanks for the info. No matter how many years I have been in the electronics hobby, I always learn something new that I did not know, with Shango's channel more so. Of course the community here is very helpful in the comments section.
A bit of plumbers tape wrapped around the stripped screw might be good enough. Nice radio, not seen in the UK, as a kid, I remember Bendix washing machines and of course the gear on starter motors.
Very nice Bendix Catalan radio. I actually have one of these in my antique Radio collection. But what is interesting is the chassis in my Catalan radio uses octal bass tubes 50L6 35Z5, etc yours is a very nice example of a nice clean cabinet although the green mobilisation has oxidized
Bendix used to make the brakes on most bicycles that had coaster brakes instead of hand breaks. They had the sort of lever on the back wheel that had a clamp around the frame to hold the brake in place and it was stamped BENDIX on the lever sort of dealy. Oh and back in the 50's and 60's the spring deal on a starter motor that engaged the flywheel was referred to as the "Bendix" of the starter. Ah for the good old days. Back when a smoke was a smoke and a man was a man, when if you complained of a pain, your buddy told you that you just didn't have enough whiskey that day!
Been through a similar text fest with the like. Accurate research theirs before and polite response would've been mine. Had a Bendix or three over the years. World of wonders this one.
Growing up, car mechanics always referred to the "Bendix" not engaging when having starter problems. Catalin cabinets in good shape bring big bucks, so be careful not to crack it - (it's easy to do).
Those Bendix drive starters like the ones used on the 57-61 Chrysler products are really great starters. Never had a problem with the Bendix drive breaking,but they are super easy to repair if it happens.
Looks like a transition period between regular octal and miniature tubes by the looks of the chassis holes where the sockets are mounted: big holes with small sockets. For the stripped screw on the trimmer, I wonder if you took the screw out, inserted some heavy thread and then put the screw back in if it would be tight enough to hold it.
Telemarketers call the radio station all the time. I have to answer the phone when the light comes on. Once in a while, it'll be a listener who wants a song played for them. More often than not, it's a telemarker. I'll answer the phone with the station's branding, but they never hear it because the thing that dials the number doesn't immediately transfer the call. I'll act like it's some contest and once in a while, I'll say they've won a prize (lint in my pocket or some worthless prize). They never call the business line. It's always the listener line. As an aside, we stopped taking requests long ago. People often request songs that don't fit the format or it's a song that we would eventually play anyway. It's not listed in any publically accessible ratings publication, but it does have a good amount of listeners. We discussed the motorcycle thing once years ago. It is a huge risk now, at least around here and we are not anywhere close to the population and traffic density of the LA metro. I think we are the 46th largest metro in the US. Not a lot of people compared to LA. Yet, for the small town I live in, there's several traffic accidents a day. Sometimes two in the same spot in a day.
Yep grandkids, there was a time when cheap low end household goods were made in USA. In fact USA even used to export them all over the world. Not anymore grandkids!
Time is money. If they're going to take up my time trying to sell me something, they need to pay me. Right on! And it's wonderful there is a new video! 👍👍
Want to see what the cab looks like in minty condition? Do a search and pull up the Bendix 526-C on Radio Museum. It also makes it clear to see how the cabinet is assembled in two pieces. Really nice and unusual.
"Go f yourself"? Let's nominate that person for telemarketer of the year since she is so professional and courteous! Try naming a capacitor" Tiny Chief" these days and see what happens! Very good for getting that radio to work again!
Those scammers are a never-ending source of amusement. I will say either their accents are getting better or they're actually hiring people from North America for their boiler rooms now.
Had a co-worker who's pelvis was crushed in a motor cycle wreck. He was in pain every day for the rest of his life (nerve damage) and is no longer with us now for related reasons. Good man, he was an EMT. I knew him later when he was a statistician.
@shango066 is their a supply issue getting those in usa ? I have a tray full of those X2 safety filter capacitors here new old stock, maybe I could send you some ?
I don't know Shango, those new electric unicycles are seemingly far more dangerous to stand on and they go fast! Some can go as fast as 55 Mph and they must wear a helmet but usually don't. Shelf queen fixed the right way, by the Shango method.
They were good radios. A lot of them are still running with not much done to them over the years. I have the cabinet type radio that I need to go through.
Take a piece of small thin metal lead trimmed off a new cap, bend it into a 'L' shape. Put it in the stripped out hole and reinsert the trimmer screw. It will cut threads into the lead as well as the existing threads, allowing you to adjust the screw for peak. Easy Peasie.
Definitely a catalin set, though one of the more common ones despite still being desirable and collectable. Can be polished to have the original green color though that takes a lot of work and easy to mess it up! Green catalin fades to brown, white fades to yellow/orange, blue also fades to brown. I've got the same set with octal tubes, yours must've been right at the end of the production where they switched to miniature. Interesting it uses a 50B5, not many used that tube before they came out with the 50C5. I believe it was something to do with the initial reliability of it...

The radio its self dead because of an open 220K plate resistor to the 12SQ7.

I like the idea of wasting as much of telemarketers time as possible. Let them get under their quota or get paid less for harassing people at home. 👍
the only problem with this is you're essentially admitting that your time is worth less than theirs
I thought it was the funniest thing I heard all day! Thanks Shango!!!😂
Nice radio! The extremely careful disassembly of the coffee maker to get the line cap made me smile and chuckle! I've done similar myself!
Looks like took example, with coffee make, from electronics recyclers... ofc, done more recycling (reusing) than industry ever done.
@@mindaugasstankus5943 Agreed! Same here - I like to do my own electronics recycling. :)
Loved the Intro. Never saw a Bendix radio.

Love the yanking the guts out of a coffee maker to save an antique radio lol
I never expected it to work right away. Especially with that leaky cap with the split down the center. Nice.
Nothing but the best
Real tomato ketchup Eddie?
It was neat hearing you mention Bendix Brakes. My dad was a Tool & Die Maker and then worked in Layout & Design at one of their big factories that became Allied Signal.
shango i see you found the right tool for the job , fantastic for C.B. work .
I like your disassembly methods of cheap consumer garbage like that coffee maker
It’s not Bakelite - it’s Catalin! That’s what makes it so valuable.
Cool! I just got a tube set for my AA5 14X by RCA. Can't wait to pop them in and see if my rework worked.
Such finesse. Such a light touch on disassembly
In Bulgarian Bendix got the meaning of that mechanism that connects starter motor shaft with engine's flywheel in your car.
And other places as well. 👍👍
I am surprised she dropped the F bomb!
Bendix or Bendix/King were the most common brand for NAV/COM radios in light general aviation airplanes for many years.
It is a small small world lol. I made a video on a Bendix radio yesterday that I am trying to bring back to life. Great video Shangoo.
Bendix also made washing machines, In the early 60s my family was the only one in the street with a gas-powered washing machine - I kid you not.
You posh bugger lol :-D

Just watching you mess with the telemarketer makes my day.
One of the best intros yet
That's a nice radio right there! At last year's SCARS radio auction, one sold for around 6-800$ if memory serves.
Nice to see something made in my home town of Baltimore! I recall working on a Bendix B&W TV that had a metal cone CRT. Of course it had gone to air.
I laughed like crazy when the lady said to go screw yourself.

There was a catalin version -green marbled /black”onyx”. Perhaps the most common catalin radio but still a nice radio to own..
Like it! Great performer.
I wonder if the base section was made of a different material. Easier and cheaper to fabricate? Or less fragile than the Catalan upper?
