This thing deserves to be restored completely!
Really sad to see such a rare tv left for dead in a mine storage. Glad you were able to recover that and hope it found a good home.
I had a Panasonic cassette stereo that was pulled out of an appliance store that burned down when I was about 12 back in the '60's. The wooden cabinet had been on fire. I pulled out the all steel chassis and plopped it into an old dead tube rca console stereo on it's back where the phono used to be. Used it for years. Even the cassette player still worked. I had to take the covers off of the VU meters because they were burned black, but underneath the needles still worked. Panasonic made really, really good stuff.
quaility
Lol
Don't really give a crap what others say...watching you go step by step explaining why things do what they do is great and educational to me...love these videos!!
Mark Jordan same here, no need for any justification Shango, just keep on doing what you enjoy doing and we'll keep on enjoying the vids as long as you care to share them
I gain a lot of knowledge from watching one of shango's videos - and I like his unique way of describing things. :-)
I tried the bulk cap replacement method and wound up with a radio working worse than when I started...fought it for two weeks before it took a flying leap into the dumpster. Now things get powered on dirt and all and I go about repair section by section...the ShangoWay !
Matsushita stuff was super high quality for a mass market production.The Panasonic radios of the 70’s were the best portables ever made. If you read the book, Matsushita Leadership, it explains why. Relentless engineering, obsessive attention to reliability.

I'm right there with you on this. Panasonic by far had some of the best overall
quality and performance not to mention durability. I'd say that picture tube quality is stunning for a set from that time. During the 60s thorough the 1980s they made some of the very best electronic gear you could get at any price.
i agree 100%.. I've seen documentaries on the way they went about their production.
Zenith had this about them as well. So does every company, if you go by their advertisement. "We are the best" is what every one of them will claim.
The proof is in the hardware, and if there aren't that many around it's probably for a reason.
My running Technics equipment is a good testimonial
Same story with the sewing machines in the '70s made in Japan very high quality.
Absolutely no television made in today's world would stand the test of time like this set! Simply amazing!!!👍
And that's after having an extremely rough life in a mine!
Personally I like the way Shango goes through the diagnostic steps. That way you actually learn what does what and what failure causes what. Sure you can throw a bunch of new parts at something and make it work, but you're not actually fixing it.
This is a cool little TV, it wanted to come back to life!
Thanks for sharing!
yeah! nobody would learn anything if one just wholesale repopulated the thing with brand new components. That's like tracing instead of freehand drawing a picture. No adventure in art to just trace or color-by-numbers. The difference between art and craft is a really forgotten contrast.
That's what helped me on fixing an old 78' Sanyo 14inch set! The owner had it completely recapped and changed some resistors, the vertical IC and even the yoke, but couldn't get it to work right (there was no vertical at all). Turned out to be a bad V-height pot and a broken trace. I really hope Shango never stops with those ressurection/repair videos!
All the fireworks in the background are celebrating the resurection of the Panasonic lol
Yep! That was the way it used to be back in the 1980’s and 1990’s where fireworks are illegal in NYC with loud noises, whistles, crackles and booms. That happened every July 4th and New Year’s. Now, they’re not the same, but it’s quiet, except for a number of loud noises in random from a distance.
Now, it happens the same thing in NYC right now.
I had a late 80's Panasonic flat screen 27" tube set that played well into the 2000's. Excellent picture quality and sound. I would say it still had 80% of its' original picture quality when I sold it. I now own a 2009 Panasonic 50" plasma which had a failed power supply when I bought it. It has seen daily use for the last 5 years and the picture quality and black levels are still outstanding.
I had an old Panasonic TV from the early 60's and lasted many years through High School, college, Navy, and into my marriage. Replaced by a not so good 19" GE Color TV.
A Portocolor TV?
This thing has an excellent image. The best I've seen on your channel I think.
if only he would connect the cable better

"Guess Miss Google is programmed for e-bonics".
Hilarious. You're more entertaining to listen to and watch that anything
on the regular "boob tube" mass media. Really enjoyed this long video.
Don't change a thing with your format.
Yes that little racist remark was hilarious. It showed everyone I knew to actually be racist even though they say they are not...
@@evilcanofdrpepper racists are good.
@@evilcanofdrpeppermmmmm hmmmfffff sheiiiiiiiittttt
impressive engineering and build quality. I think the jacked up vert is an improvement for the programming.
This Matsushita doesn't belong in the shitter.
I clicked on this video to check it out. I didn’t intend to watch the whole video in one sitting, but I was hooked from the start. There’s something magical about watching something with this much history be brought back from a muddy grave and given a new lease on life.
I’d volunteer to restore it to be pretty for the dance, and then send it on the early tv foundation folks.....thats really where it belongs. Since its from my birth year, this little set tugs at my heart. But I would be concerned on shipping as others have noted. Both cost and safety, but might be game. This little guy deserves a second chance.
My understanding is that .8x (or .08x) specs. effectively means “Let’s use up some of those 1x (.1x) parts that didn’t quite pass Q.C.” Which is honestly a reasonable practice for low tolerance applications and such parts are already in your inventories or readily available in your local supply chain.
I recall when articles of Japanese manufacture were ridiculed on the same level as today's Chinesium.
Yup
When I was in tech school I had a TV- I believe it was an RCA CTC87 series that had a severe vertical foldover-we had on a talk show at the time it may have been Merv Griffin and he had Bonnie Pointer on performing and her legs were folded over at the bottom and she was bouncing on stage and it looked like her head was bobbing up and down out of her crotch so to this day when I speak to a classmate we refer to that set as the one where Bonnie Pointer was singing out of her crotch
Even better than Englands Sticky Vicky inventer of the ping pong ball shot from crotch act. Impressed !
I thought I had worked up some pretty impressive foldover on my Toshiba 2939DB a few years back, nothing compared to this or Shango's Matsushita though lol
Nice sharp and bright CRT in that set!
Maxxarcade upload more videos bro
I wish shipping to Illinois wasn't expensive. I would love to tear this TV apart piece by piece to have it looking like brand new. Such a beautiful set :(
Back in the 60's and even into the 70's Japanese electronics were considered junk. In fact everything from Japan was considered inferior. I have an very old BW Sony CV2000 1/2" VTR along with it's companion 12" B/W TV that dates back to 1965. It is probably as rare as this TV.
Dave B
?
I've an old B&W dual standard 405 / 625 line hand wired 20" ITT KB VC3 that's still alive. On UK UHF 625 lines that's 576i and infinite greyscale and with a set top box it's easy on the eye to watch. (Edit)576i/25 is as near as dammit VGA :-) That's progress for you. 405 line TV could be regarded as 312i/25 not bad for postwar :-)
I don't think the CV2000 is incredibly rare -- you can find CV2000 transfers on RUclips, but you don't see the machine itself every day. But I have never heard of a companion TV for it. Hang on to that!
You can see my CV2000 on you tube. Mine is branded a GE, but it is the CV2000 made by Sony.
ruclips.net/video/dFmisHSmZpU/видео.html
Here is mine from a few years ago.
Thanks shango066 for explaining in some detail the "step-by-step process" required to solve the all-too-common vertical sweep/deflection issues with B&W tube sets. You are the man. :)
One thing I learned form experience, is that shotgun repairing a TV (or radio) chassis is never a good idea as there is some chance of making a mistake (e.g. with cap values or connecting a resistor to the wrong part of a circuit) - and/or the possibility of a new fault happening somewhere else as old parts not yet replaced start failing under load.
Stay cool.
👍👍👍🙏 Notice the Matsushita logo!!! before it becomes the main parts provider for Panasonic, JVC, Sanyo even Sony
superb job sir!
I can't believe there are still people who can't recognise 16:9 and 4:3.
Never mind that even... over a decade of phones being able to record 16:9 video, and people still insist recording in vertical.
I can remeber a TV ad/info a few years ago, when HDTV was not yet common: "To check if you are receiving the HD channel, look at the HD logo besides the station logo"
That bridge is a bloody beauty Shango. Great video.
I see that Japanese stuff was of decent quality then, too. I notice 3 picture IF stages, as opposed to 2 for most of the junky American portables of the time. Impressive sync stability.
I am an Aussie and I love your videos. I can't believe that I was born in 1961. Watching the development of electronics over the years is great fun. I got bitten by a 1B3 GT high voltage rectifier valve and lived to tell about it. I actually glow in the dark. Cheers Andrew from Australia.
Everyone can replace all tubes and caps, but to have the knowledge to test and verify stuff shows the capability of someone.
We have been eagerly awaiting this set! One of the first Japanese entrants into the USA tv market! Awesome video!
i have one of the first Sony Trinitron models that came into the UK, around 1970, KV1320UB, not valve/tube, admittedly, but solid state, and seems to still work OK..
@@andygozzo72
Old Trinitrons are becoming something of a collectable, especially in vintage video games and vintage computing circles.
This is why I watch. Old, weird, and interesting stuff is the best kind! Resurrecting stuff that is rare and odd but not necessarily valuable is, I think, even more important to the history of the hobby than the "desirable" stuff. I'm hoping someone from Panasonic/National reaches out to you because this set is important historically for both the company and American electronics history as well. Being in a Panasonic museum collection would be another interesting step in the life cycle of a set that was in a cellar at a mine.
I agree about keeping the stuff that most people take to the dump, I collect sony music centres as they are a bit too large for most homes but 40 years ago everyone had one but now people only go for the classic 'separates systems' which are very expensive.
Another nice video!
The PL36 tube (25E5) is a very common tube here in Europe. It was replaced by the more efficient PL504 (27GB5).
Βρε δεν εχεις αφησει βιντεο για βιντεο :p
Αγγελος Ναυπακτος
Χεχεχε, απίστευτος ο τύπος!
Ειναι λιγο χυμα στο πως βγαζει και βαζει λυχνιες εν λειτουργια αλλα ενταξει δεν πειραζει
PL36 and PL500 /PL504 were both(PL504 was an improved version of the PL500, in many cases interchangeable) very common,in the uk, i have many of each, unfortunately mostly 'used'...PL81 was also used before they came out,
those py88s were also fairly common, although most used py81s or py800s or py801s , especially in small screen stuff like that...
I do not repair TV's, but started watching your videos after I watched your video on repairing the Philco Predica. I really enjoy your videos!
shango066 cleaning a set ?? thats gonna be very rare haha
LOve the space age manual and that you mentioned Esquivel lol Total 60's dynamic music...to match the TV! The picture was so good at the end! I hope you still use it or found a home for it ! Watching July 2020
Wow! What a great way to spend my Monday evening! Great video! I was thinking that at that time people may have thought of Japanese products as inferior, but really, they were already showing what they could do! I'm surprised this set turned out as good as it did. Great sound off the bat, and changing just 3 parts seemed to bring it back to life, easily watchable and a great picture tube. This one needs to be saved. As you mentioned, there could be none others out there of this same model. Hopefully someone will take it off your hands and give it a full blown restore and clean. Watching the fireworks on the TV with the added "sound effects" in the background, perfect! The best 77 minutes I've spent in awhile!
A tv that sat half underwater in a musty cellar for over 30-40 years, all it needed was a cleaning, new vacuum tube, and two new capacitors. That’s the power of Japanese engineering.
I am absolutely floored with the picture quality that this little beauty is still able to pump out! Even by Panasonic standards, it’s impressive given the conditions it was stored in for a good 30-40 years!
Great video ! Watching you diagnose this 57 year old set was so interesting ! I'd rather watch this, than most anything on the tube !! Seriously ! Nice little set, and good job getting her running again ! It was almost blasphemy, to play C-rap music videos on this set ! UGH ! It even picked up their 'autotuned" voices, used to correct their C-RAPPY singing !..lol! One of your best ! Thanks. matt
DO NOT CARE HOW MANY MISTUKES YOU MAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE MAKE MORE MICESTAKES as your videos are gold to me
Exactly as stated in the previous comment. By going step by step, it is far more educational. I look at other things the same way you do actually, so your style of explaining things is in tune with how my brain is wired. I'm pretty certain you are a mechanic by profession. A lot of your diagnostic skills parallel automotive repair. I'm a former mechanic and still involved with auto parts and repair. Very similar methodologies involved. Working system by system. Thanks for another great vid!
I know it's been 3 years but man I hope this TV ended up in a place it could be appreciated. It deserves someone to spend the time recapping or paying someone else to spend the time recapping.
Love the measurements and the testers you use. Brilliant video, I enjoyed all 77 minutes of it. Well chosen 60's music for the instruction manual. Power hungry TV. The CR-Tube is in very good condition. Nice starshells.
RODALCO2007 These what they called fireworks on a B&W TV and all you see is all white projectiles from the display, there’s no colors like red, blue, green, purple, pink and orange projectiles if you have a color TV. This early Panasonic is rare as it gets.
Amazing. In 1973, the little shop I worked in sold Zenith since the 50's. The dying owner introduced Toshiba to our shop. Along with that, all test jigs and bags of parts plus an O scope. Amazing quality at that time.
Definitely. I remember my father saying Japan made products were junk. But they cost less. I wasn't born in a time when almost everything was American made. Thanks for another fine video!
Such a bright picture and detailed for a 1962.
nice super rare tv.
I bet tvs with lots of circuit parts / lots of transistors.
For this one lots of tubes and resistors gives better picture.
Old 1976 sony trinitron has lots of transistors and gives a bright quality picture.
PS
Usually cheap tvs before LCD came are 1 circuitboard and picture tube.
I see the horizontal output tube(line output valve) is a PL36,quite a common European type at the time.
All but one were common european types (PCL82,85, PCF80, EF80, EL36), not very expensive
PY88 too... I could even imagine the whole design is some European clone of a Philips or so.
@@telocho My thoughts as well. CRT is AW36-14 which is a Philips/Valvo designation and probably manufactured by others. The flyback looks like a clone of the Philips/Valvo AT2012, but adopted for 110 deflection. It looks like a Philips design, regardless.
i find it cool that i was in America in NYC filming these fireworks the same time you filmed this.
I would like my tooth brush back please wondered where it went too ;)
Also another interesting repair video only wish the newer stuff was made to last
Wow! Wow! Wow! What a find. That TV is *beautiful* It cleaned out splendidly. I'm astonished at the build quality of that set. It really was overengineered and built to last. Competed to that American garbage from Philco of the same era.
I just wanted to say I love your old TV resurrection videos and I thank you so much for taking the time to make them. I know video production is a lot of effort and must get in the way of the actual fixing quite a bit, so many thanks again for doing these. I think your methods are great, the amount you get working is proof and stuff all the moaners and whiners. Long may your discovering and fixing continue.
Nice to see a Panasonic Japanese set with UK style valves /tubes. Love your videos!
May I ask, what makes those UK style valves/tubes?
@@albear972 Hi there, all the valves used in this Panasonic TV Receiver are/were used in UK & European TV sets of that time
Love the weathergirl's mini-arms coming out of her neck!
Awesome little TV. My grandma had one like it for a kitchen TV. Nice
That is the FIRST TIME, I've EVER seen a HV rectifier tube go bad! Especially in that fashion. I do recall you once saying that if tubes get wet they can leak out their vacuum.
Not bad, one tube and two capacitors. I think Panasonic was the Japanese Zenith. Sony was the Japanese Muntz, back then anyway.
In the uk we are paying £5.20 a gallon for petrol (gas)
Great video thanks for posting
well we are paying 1,58 € per liter..do yourmath and stare at how ridiculously high it is. diesel it almost at 1,30€ per liter
As far as I am concerned. Whether you have the right tester or not, your creativity is the key. Using the equipment for the purpose it's not designed for helps is what matters. You may not have everything but using your brain to make use of any test equipment what you have beyond their design to find a problem is genius!!
A tube tester will only tell you when a tube is bad, never when it is good. Wow, that user manual... Respect!
I like your method of trouble shooting direct and to the point... Always great stuff 👍👍👍👍👍👍👌
Great video. Your troubleshooting style of diagnosing and fixing only what's broken is refreshingly different. It gets results quickly (with some risk), and doesn't waste time on hopeless causes. It also highlights the original build quality, which is seriously impressive on this set.
Since when does MTV have music? I thought that died decades ago....
This is one of the best and one of my favourite Shango066 Videos
lovely telly, should definitely be restored and in a museum if they are THAT rare!
amazing that the crt is that good!
nearest i have to that tv is a KB 405/625 dual standard portable, one of the first dual standard tvs, and also one of the first in portable form, (1964/65) works nicely, and crt in excellent state, but radiates a hell of a lot of rf interference while warming up!
Awesome video. That was amazing to get that dusty paperweight working. Well done.
i used to work in a tv repair shop with my very good mate John Loved working there great times ! Love watching your videos !!!
I can't believe I was a new born baby in 1961. The change in technology over the decades has been incredible in Australia where I live. I'd love to meet you one day shango! Andrew!
I can fix electronics easily now because of your help thanks a lot Mr Shango 66o
Brother, You are a genius! Beautiful picture and great diagnostics! My hats off to you. Keep 'em coming!
Actually a few milliseconds of 'Johnson rag' by Esquivel got in at 1.04.00!
The picture as it appeared on 44:55 reminds me of the opening sequence of the 1963 TV series "The Outer Limits." An Escalade was a automobile model made by Cadillac Division of General Motors.
Never saw this TV that rare. This was an early Panasonic TV set from the early 1960's. Matsushita made a lot of stuff under the Panasonic name. They also made Technics where they put out stereo receivers, amplifiers, cassette decks, and the most popular one is the SL-1200 series turntable.
There was also another brand called National where they made other types of stuff from Japan under the Panasonic name where it became National Panasonic. There was Concord that made reel to reel decks which was not made by Matsushita, it was by Concord Electronics Corp. in Los Angeles (now gone). The only Concord R2R tape recorder I have is a model 220T which is an all transistor unit, with a single tube amplifier and a "Magic Eye" level indicator tube for recording, and it's a basic 2-track only tape recorder, and it was a barebones machine where it lacks the track change switch for the second track.
The parts in the Concord 220T are from Matsushita and they are all Japanese components, and that was from 1964. A lot of these electronics are from Japan made a lot of great stuff than the current ones that are made in China. Japan is the country that made electronics so good and still works for a long time.
BTW, nice fireworks after you restored your early Panasonic TV set from 1962, and the fireworks are pretty in black & white, but I prefer the color ones which is better and much vibrant than this one. I saw fireworks on both nights in Saugerties and Catskill since I made these videos a few days ago when I was in person.
There's also the "Macy's 4th of July Fireworks" which is in New York City for its 42nd year. The first one dates back to 1976 which was during the bicentennial period.
The background noise where one of the neighbors setting off fireworks are illegal in California. I remember living in Brooklyn, NY where one of the neighbors in brownstone apartment buildings where they set off on streets, parks and on rooftops, and they are so pretty. It was like a war zone. Brooklyn and the rest of New York City has set off lots of fireworks illegally, and it is not acceptable to use it if the NYPD officer and the FDNY firefighter would be on a look out for suspects who uses fireworks will be busted. That happens every 4th of July and New Year's Eve. I missed watching fireworks in the city.
In addition, you can play video games for other consoles like NES, SNES, Sega Genesis and others where you can connected to the early Panasonic TV.
Shango,their referring to the Cadillac Escalade :)
'Excalade'
Great save. Black and white goodness. Nice eye candy.
If I had this set the only way you would see fish swimming across the screen is I turned to the fish tank channel
That set has phenomenal picture!
I mean, it has potential to be phenomenal.
I still have some Panasonic/Technics stuff from the 90's, it was always one of my favorite brands for low-end stuff. There is an attention to detail and quality that they seem to place on smaller, less expensive products that other brands didn't try to match.
One of the most amazing videos I have seen. You are a genius!!
This is probably one of your best resurrection videos I've seen in a while. What a great little TV! I can't believe how sharp that screen is!
I'm redoing a 60's GE b&w, with a "test good" picture tube.The quality of this tube is incredible, next to mine.
Amazing that those old tv's can still work great job.
It uses a PL36 as the Damper and a PY88 as a Booster.
Those are still very often to find in Europe or here Germany.
These Types were used in many Sets over here in the 60s.
I always thought Japan used some own strange Tubes...?
Btw. I Love the Way You Diagnose this Stuff!!
Awesome work! I remember seeing this when you first dug it up. Happy to see it again.
Panasonic always made nice stuff. They never skimped on quality.
@Комендант Sixto I actually have an Arc3 shaver that's made in China. It works just fine. But yeah I'd prefer my Japanese products to be made in Japan like in the old days. Same with my American products. In fact I'm against manufacturing products outside of the country of origin in general. It's not fair to the people since it kills jobs.
The schematic is reminiscent of an Australian set of the same period. They all had mains transformers for the 200-250V line voltage here though. Lots of wax paper caps. The horizontal linearity control on this set is quite similar to a Pye chassis I had, with the adjustable slug.
Europe used 220V (now 230V) too, but many models don't use power transformer. In this TV you can see 2 heating strings (because of 110V), in european TV it was one long string of P-type tubes serially connected with resistor and thermistor (to protect heaters) to 220V. B+ in this TV use doubler, in europe there were only one diode rectifier and you get 250-270V B+.Schematics is also similar to european sets of the same time.
That is proof of the quality of Panasonic equipment! Well done! The valves have Philips/Mullard numbers. The PL36, PCL85, PCF80, PY88 were widely used in British TV sets. I have 150 television receivers in my own collection [1936-1980] and another 150 similar at the museum! Joint curator, British Vintage Wireless and Television Museum. Dulwich, London.
Educational! Entertaining! Historical! Eeh!
Susan Amber Bruce And lots of fireworks in the background.
Panasonic may be interested in this TV. Besides being rare to extinct, this is the very beginning of commercial engineering in Japan. At this point, they mostly just copied like China now. Probably that complex simply because whoever designed it didn't yet understand the concept of engineering to manufacturing for profit or repair in the field
Actually an indigenous design. Very few TVs are made like this.
What are you talking about? Japan were / are still one of the first real pioneers of TV. I suggest you look up Kenjiro Takayanagi, a famous Japanese engineer not so well known in Europe / USA but he built the first all electronic TV in the 1920s (didn't require discs like logi baird and co) and had a working TV demo even before Farnsworth. The war put the brakes on the developement of TV's but Japan were very much designing and working on their own stuff right from the start. They had a HDTV system developed and ready in the early 60s although bureaucracy would keep it from deployment until the 70s/80s by which time Digital TV was already in the works. Even to this day NHK (Japanese broadcaster) are the pioneers of 8k broadcasting with their own cameras and test broadcasts going on...
There was also a Japanese version of this model which was AN14, and it was under National instead of Panasonic, and it has a different logo instead of this one which was the Masushita logo.
Isn't there some kind of TV museum in L.A. that would be interested in this?
Takanayagi had an electromechanical television, it still used a Nipkow disk.
"He developed a system similar to that of John Logie Baird, using a Nipkow disk to scan the subject and generate electrical signals. But unlike Baird, Takayanagi took the important step of using a cathode ray tube to display the received signal. This was several months before Philo T. Farnsworth demonstrated his first fully electronic system in San Francisco on September 7, 1927, which did not require a Nipkow disk."
Wow ! What an interesting video. Thanks, I learned a lot today for sure. You should be a electronic teacher.
What an amazing picture quality from such an old set. You really did a amazing troubleshooting on this one.
Thanks again for a great,interesting, and educational, and entertaining channel. Five 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Stars !! 👍
nice, it deserves to live on . Needs respect. Nice job thanks
All this complicated stuff in a B&W portable TV? Wow. It's no surprise that (once the quality of the individual components improved) Japanese electronics came to be known for their ingenuity and quality.
And I agree with you 100%. That was one messed up tube. What on earth even causes the bottom 1/4th to become mirrored like that?
I've been collecting "National" , and Panasonic radios and other electronics. Tube type Japanese radios are getting really hard to find. I've never seen a TV though...that's one I'm going to look for, it looks nice complex and fun to play with.
i have a couple of Japanese valve /tube sets, a Panasonic AU370, no info on the net as far as i can find, and a little 'LUXURI' 'midget' that seems to have been sold in loads of case and brand variations
i have three Japanese valve /tube sets, a Panasonic AU370, no info on the net as far as i can find, a little 'LUXURI' 'midget' that seems to have been sold in loads of case and brand variations, and a Trio 9R59 'communications' receiver
Holy shit, you do not disappoint Shango. Incredibly complex set and great repair as always.
such a bright crt even in bright daylight, lovely wee tv
I love the way you do ALLL the diagnosing, i am again a guy that's been taught in old school but had to move over to NEW technology to keep up with the jonses meaning be able to pay for kids college and a roof.
Brilliant with your flashback in time. I strap it to the roof ! Your video's are awesome, don't worry about mistakes or whatever. There are too many keyboard sitters out there and not doers, who actually repair devices like you do. I learn a lot from your video's and who cares if a puff of smoke is released once in a while.
SENCOR USED TO HAVE A FLYBACK CHECKER . BASICALLY IT PULSED THE FLYBACK AND COUNTED THE RINGS . I MADE A SINGLE TRANSISTOR PULSE CIRCUIT AND USING MY OSCILLOSCOPE I OBSERVED THE RINGS . I BELIEVE IN A GOOD FLYBACK I WOULD SEE 7 TO 10 RINGS . THE PULSE CUR CIT I MADE USED A 9 VOLT BATTERY . WORKED VERY WELL . EYE TROUBLE I USE CAPS .
That a working TV there, nice done. Was a pleasure to watch this and learn.
I'm the guy who'd take it from there. But by all means you did an excellent diagnose and repair. Shame more don't appreciate and share the love of history, these machines & effort like yours.
shango you need to blow up a T.V. on the forth my friend , i love your end of the line with fire works in them.
i enjoy it because its intelligent problem solving
Those valve numbers are definitely UK numbers as we used all those in out sixties sets.
Thorn 1400 & 1500 etc...
