Hello from Portugal! Hey Shango066 have you ever made any update on that interesting soviet TV? I would be very interested to see it working and if you are able to make it work with an NTSC signal!
I can't unsee the underside of the chassis. It looks like it came from the Munster's home! Caked with dead spiders and roaches. One stinkbug carcass as well! Shango's expert repairs come through. You could watch the picture now.
Thank you for this and all your videos, this is seriously my favorite TH-cam channel. You're straight forward, ingaging, informative and entertaining. The consistency of your formats is also greatly appreciated.
Couldn't agree more, I subscribe to way too many TH-cam channels but if I could only pick one, this would be it. I just finished watching the entire "back catalog", just can't get enough!
All that glowage may be cool looking, but I can still hear my mother bitching at me for falling asleep with the TV on and running up the electric bill. The first color TV my family had that I can remember used over 300 watts.
You are an Amazing and PRACTICAL tech & mechanic, more than you give yourself credit for. I went from a "Hobby Tech" to a little MORE because of you. !! Thank You
I'd like to know why all the coolest TVs get the worst treatment, I mean this thing's been defeated on by rabbits and roaches if it were taken care of it would definitely be a keeper, it has a decent picture grayscale wise, if the deflection and sound issues get fixed it would be almost perfect.
"I won't replace any capacitors" and then ends up replacing every capacitor in the vertical section... Maybe that's what they call having second thoughts? ;) Either way, I keep being astonished how one can bring these old tube TV's back from the brink even after receiving so much abuse over the years. Of course Shango would be the one to do it... I guess he's desert-hardened and tough as nails :P I do wish he'd share a little wisdom and knowledge about why that damn cathode current is so important... never got a half-decent explanation as to why it is, as in more important than any other current flow in any device
At 28:00 it sounds like the sound effects from a 1950's sci fi movie. That TV is a nice piece of mid 20th century industrial design. Almost all our entertainment products today have less thought put into them as to how they look than a manhole cover.
I thoroughly enjoy these resurrection videos as I have a Magnavox television to restore in a Windsor Imperial and you give me the confidence needed to tackle it. I know you did a video on what order sections need to be fixed and working correctly in a television and I just need to find it and save it. Looking forward to the next part of this series.
I remember the time I was driving along and a poor rabbit ran out in front of me and it caught the head on my Y-Pipe on the exhaust. I didn't notice until we had arrived at our destination and a distinct oder of burning hair and flesh caught my nose holes. I had to crawl halfway under my car to wedge it out of the roasting exhaust hoping it doesn't set my car ablaze. We felt really bummed after seeing that. Watching you fire up that television almost brought me back to that night.
1:53 "NE-2 2180"!! Wonder what the "NE" stood for. I remember my parents quoting a couple of numbers they had known since the 1950s that way, but I don't remember anyone else using the old mnemonic exchange references. Even the song "Beechwood-4-5789" was an oldie by the time I started tuning the radio. It even sounds nostalgic when someone from a 1980s show quotes a 7 digit phone number.
52:14 - I love to watch on a 55 inch smart TV a full-screen image of the picture tube and cabinet of an old TV. Due to force of habit while growing up, I almost feel compelled to get up out of my easy chair and change the channel or adjust the picture of that old tv.
I give shango a BIG thumbs up for the making of his videos. The time and effort that this takes. He has alot of determination, patients, and powers of observation. Great job keep up the good work thanks.
Olympic TV sets were made in Queens by Sunnyside,they were mainly an east coast product. They were weird sets,the console sets were usually series wired and the portable sets usually had a transformer go figure. Olympic was one of the cheaper tvs like Emerson.
Love your videos, very informative and entertaining and you make no attempt to remove your mistakes from the video. Often the way in technical servicing, much time can be spent in diagnosing faults as obscure faults are misleading. Your wealth of knowledge of electronics is incredible and Your patience in searching for the fault is to be respected. I remember working in a technical service workshop and the Boss would get up the bench monkeys for leaving the difficult jobs on the incoming repair shelf and picking up the easy jobs. Some of the hard repairs sat at the back of the shelf for months until the customers started ringing the Boss and yelling for their items!
I don’t understand anything about electronics but I really enjoy watching your videos. It amazes me how you are able to fix virtually whatever you get your hands on.
Roach palace of a television. Interesting that it was already so close to working with just a reform. Always love your resurrection videos, the diagnostics are very interesting to watch. Hope to see a (literal) debug of a color demod one of these days.
19:50 Using the pliers to change channels, reminds me of an electronic magazine story in the 60s where a service guy trying to do the customer good attached a brass garden tap to the broken changer but instantly got whacked across the room when he tried to use it. Whoops!!!
The chassis looks really good, it's not rusted from what I can see. It is dirty as hell. I can see this getting restored by someone. As long as you are not giving up... This is going to be really good.
Another entertaining video yes it would be nice to see the set working well even if it becomes a dog bed or worse maybe someone might need a working chassis for a set in better condition.
@@michaelszczys8316 That sounds like something totally original though. Truth over facts is a reference to Biden having said that "We choose truth over facts!" during his presidential campaign.
"yes, on pin seven, we have three hundred watts, on the other hand, you have the hair and dander. i don't wanna re-cap the whole verticle circuit; but, it really needs it! just because the capacitors are NOT LEAKY, doesn't mean they're NOT BAD, ..they're infused with roach feces."
In rabbit aficionado parlance, "spicy hay" is a nickname for electrical wires of any type. I think that this video demonstrates well how this term was coined.
I think i saw a stacked B+ 135v supply in the vert circuit on the schematic. If that B+ was coming from the cathode of the audio tube, perhaps there is a voltage problem on that supply, esp since the audio section seems to be acting up?
It would seem that we agree to the solution to the covid-19 problem as I watched the sound stop and the picture fade to a small white dot in the center.
OLYMPIC TV. Was located in L.I.C. N.Y. I grew up just a couple of miles away from the factory. OLYMPIC products were. Sold in mom and pop stores that sold electronics. I do not think the bishop chain department stores carried this brand. When I worked in the TV repair shop back in the 1970s we God not get many Olympic sets for repair. In the ten years I was there I saw maybe 3-4 sets come in. I cannot wait for the follow up video of this set. Saturday's with lunch and shango.
Well that's a tough one. The first bw set on the channel to not work well after shango's usual resurrection procedure? All that rabbit fur with airbrushed roach feces must be forming some conductive material with termistor like properties.
Thus the StarTrek TOS symbol was created 🚀 - watched to the end and I want to say you are 💪 getting to the bottom of the issues. Looking forward to the next vids! - then I realized it was posted 5 hours ago - so much for my bing watching the series tonight 🤣🤣🤣
I have an RCA Deluxe from about 1957 with the same vertical linearity troubles. I'll be looking forward to seeing part II. Maybe You'll Get the horizontal linearity better. Also I thought the blacks were crushed. Would that also compress the sync pulses? I really need to brush up on the technology. Thanks again for your generous sharing of your knowledge and wit. God Bless!
Ceramic capacitors can act nonlinearly but as I don't think there's much AC across the cap you put in I don't think that's the issue here. I would try putting the proper horizontal tube in as it appears the vertical is run off the boost voltage.
I think, its a good result for such a TV ! You had better ones in the past, in this case some issues are remaining... so what ? We have a bright, clear picture, no horizontal or hv-issues, its good ! If the pulses from the sync (intergrator?) are not ook (bad caps), the vertikal starts rolling, bad linearity... spot checking the high-ohm-resistors (for instance the 10Meg). Enjoyed it.... Oh, I am glad to hear, that this will stay on the scene !! This is shango at its best ^^
53:12 sometimes i find that having good sync or any sync at all is impossible when you have jacked up linearity or size....so i think you will never have proper stability until you fix the linearity issues...maybe that tube is stronger than the others in the other box and it works better but as soon as the circuit is working good i think the other tubes would work just fine...a common issue i usually find is old trimmer pots going open on one side, for example a voltage divider pot for the linearity can go open on the side that goes to ground and it can still have an effect on the image when rotated but it will never work right, but i'm sure you know all that ! i am curious about the sound issues because those often involves some idiot tweaking all the if coils in the past and then the sound will never be right, i have some tvs like that, hope its not the case

Frame linearity issues can also be out-of-spec resistors in the linearity circuit.
Thanks for the effort you put into these - good entertainment and instruction! Well done, again!

You check the cathode current as the anode voltage is too high for most meters. If the cathode current is too high the tube will red plate and die

As a cop, we used to have to go into homes such as the one that TV came from. Yea, disgusting the way some people live.
These resurrection videos are fascinating to watch. Turning off the TV at the end was a good call. lol..

When I was a kid in the 60's, one of my parent's out of town friends had one of these. I never saw it opened. This'll be a first for me.

This debris is driving my OCD through the roof. The whole time I’m thinking, “man, get your air compressor out!”
I'd be more worried about the HV shorting out from dust, at least there's no circuit boards to carbon track.
Better on the set than in the air blowing around. Unless it's outside.

This is a rather rare TV. It is a shame the cabinet is in poor condition. This set would be a gem otherwise.
Ceramic capacitors can act nonlinearly but as I don't think there's much AC across the cap you put in I don't think that's the issue here. I would try putting the proper horizontal tube in as it appears the vertical is run off the boost voltage.
