My other hobbys lisining to records CDs and fmstreo on my Yamaha reciver me and my cousin are going to a Swap meet June 5th 2022 Sunday morning at 8 am in Milwaukee
Interesting little set, I noticed the old can cap was made in the UK by plessey, Philco made both radio & television in the UK since the 1930's. Very impressed with the transformer rewind, got it spot on, good for the next 60+ years!
Dreco aka the Dominion Radio & Television Corp. Ltd actually made Philco radios under a license fee to Philco USA until Philco USA was sold to Ford Motor Co. in 1962.
The capacitor can stuffing was slick. Then you recapped and aligned the radio, but there was still about 20 minutes left in this video. Something else was going to happen. It did. What started off as a routine repair, ended up taking us on a crazy transformer winding journey. SO WELL DONE. Thank you so much, David.
I have to admit that I was hoping the owner would ask you to fix the transformer! Also enjoyed the way you re-rolled the capacitor can. All in all, a very nice job.
Well, I'm a little late to the show, but again fantastic work Dave. The transformer rewind was definitely a labor of love. Great stuff! Thanks for sharing your video's, they go well with my cup of coffee :^)
Hi Paul, better late than never, I'm well behind your videos as well, I've been off grid for streaming for three weeks. Thanks Paul, the transformer worked out better than I expected, hopefully I will improve as I do a few more 🙂
Another great job. Clearly shorted turns on the primary increasing the ratio and giving you a high output voltage and high circulating current in the shorted turns generating heat. Great entertainment as always. Cheers Bob
I watched you with the drill, and it took me back to 1976, I was stationed in the Washington DC area, it was the US Bicentennial celebration time and we were a ceremonial unit for the DC Area known as "The Old Guard" Our unit did such things as the percussion rifle drill team, and guard the Tomb of the Unknowns. Anyhow we also were an Infantry Unit, and I was with communications. We had to mount new FM Two way radios on one of the Jeeps, and a buddy of mine was using a 3/8 inch electric drill, the sort with two hand holds on it, he was up over the top of the drill, kneeling on the back fender of the Jeep where the radio went, He had the drill and was really putting the pressure on it, when the bit walked off the fender and went straight through his pants, entangling his scrotum and balls. Man he was in PAIN!! I hauled him to hospital (I was not in charge but being a sergeant, I took charge when the idiot who was supposed to be supervising went to panic mode.) Then, since we both lived off base in the same apartment complex, I went to his apartment and informed his wife. She took it well, I brought my wife along to comfort her. The dude got to keep his hardware but he wasn't going to be cheating on his wife anytime soon as both his tool and the family jewels were all bare with the skin being removed by the sharp drill bit. That was when I got a whole new respect for electric drills.

Hi Dave. Sorry to hear you were ill. Your sounding better though. Always enjoy you rebuilding parts, especially the transformer. The NZ add was hilarious. Take care. Say hi to the misses for me.
Hi Phillip, I'm good as gold now thanks Philip. The transformer was good fun to do, I will do more in the future. I said hi to her, she's says hi back. Thanks Phillip 🙂
Nice work on the cap and transformer. That low filament voltage was weird (even in light of the earlier version of the schematic). I imagine if you had a few shorted windings on the secondary or filament windings, they'd just be sitting there dissipating heat and power in the transformer and doing nothing else acting like another independent secondary load (and not really otherwise affecting things).
Thanks Arrr Ummm, I have pulled a number of transformers apart and I have never seen the wire insulation fall off like that so I think it was running too hot. Your explanation is what I was thinking but I can't say for sure in light of the voltages I found later on the earlier schematic 🤔🙂
It seems to rewind a transformer is child's play for an expert radio tech like you Dave! Very good work all around on this one, very good work for sure.
Ahhh... Hi Delatsch. Your calculator was very handy and answered all the questions regarding wire size current flow and turns, thank you it was very good 👍🙂
Hi David. Another great radio journey. That transformer really did need some attention and watching you unwind and rewind it was mesmerising. I’m sure the owner will be well chuffed with it. Loved the air New Zealand ad at the end as well. Cheers Graham
Hi Graham, I hope I did the right thing rewinding transformer. The ad is brilliant and typical of the friendly banter between us and the Kiwis. Thanks Graham 😃
Much kudos for the transformer rewind, and the cap restuff was masterful. you are definitely one of the best radio restorers on the net. Please treat yourself to a bottle of Coopers. Cheers from the UK, Steve.
Fascinating watching you do the math and wind the transformer. Great stuff. Ad at the end was a nice touch. Love your sense of humor. Thanks David. 73 de KB7ICI....Bill
1000th Thumbs Up! Really enjoyed the Xfmr rewind. I think the other one was a first-class fire hazard! Now both you and you customer have peace of mind! Really loved the advert!
Hi Dave, Good to hear you are over the worst of the mystery virus: we have to be vigilant as best we are able. The Philco is a neat looking little radio - I can certainly see it’s appeal. It is not too dissimilar looking from the 1957 Bell Colt. A few of those ‘budget’ New Zealand valve radios might not look much internally, but the ones I’ve seen and heard work exceptionally well. The same can be said about the Philco Alabama radio - and a very attractive little radio! also! I was happy to see the mains transformer rewind was a success. Those types of job can easily go wrong, especially if one does not have a coil winder with a turns counter - a nice bit of kit you have for doing that type of work. As always, another superb radio repair video my friend. For the love of God, stay safe, all the best from Phil.
Hi Phil, thanks, I'm well over the virus, a few days in bed had it sorted. Exactly, the Bell Colt looked very similar to this one, I would love a Colt as well one day. This was my first attempt at a real transformer re-wind so I was nervous at the outcome but it was pretty much spot on, beginners luck I suppose. Thanks Phil, take care yourself 👍🙂
Hi David. Superb job yet again. You have got transformer rewinds off to a fine art. The set turned out really well. Love the advert at the end, it really made me laugh. As always I thoroughly enjoyed watching. Cheers Chris.
Rewinding the transformer looks like a lot of hard work, even with the winder. But a good job on adapting the winder seems to have made it easier. Great watch, lots of humour - especially regarding the Kiwis (if I'm allowed to call them that). Had a holiday of a lifetime with my then partner, now wife travelling down NZ - Auckland to Queenstown 3 years ago. Thanks again for sharing another great repair job. Always look forward to seeing them.
It is a bit Radio-Ged but quite enjoyable and the winder is much better behaved now. I think the Kiwis are quite happy to be called that. We spent three weeks in a camper doing the North and South islands some years ago, stunning country and the Kiwis were very friendly. You were lucky to be able to do it too. Thank Radio-Ged 👍🙂
Hi Dave I love the way you fearlessly go ahead and rewind the transformer. I watched this the other day and today thought it is just as well the owner gave the go ahead ,because I reckon all that carbonised enamelled wire was acting like a resistor shorting turns. Sooner or later it would fail possibly catching fire with all that wax and paper it was made of. And I noticed you did a great job of the rewind just feeding the wire by hand. Modern enamelled wire is so tough it can be bunch wound and never short. I am told you can twist this wire tightly together walk on it and it will not short. I liked the fun with the kiwi overdubs.
Hi Robert, I'm not sure if it's fearless or brainless, never the less, the transformer worked. I improved my winding machine for another transformer. I have another transformer to wind in the near future and I will update the winder again for that. The wire coating is super tough theses days and I reckon you could do as you say and it would stay insulated. I should try that. Thanks Robert 🙂
Another great restoration David. Watching you rewind that transformer was fascinating. Most techs would search out a replacement but you don't faff about with an easy option like that, you get stuck in and recycle the original. Fantastic job!
Sorry to hear you were a bit under the weather David, take care..Wonderful video, so much learned especially that transformer winding, so cool...Love the advert at the end, just so funny..Thanks again for sharing, your expert knowledge..What a treat as always..Ed..uk..😀
Hi Ed, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm all better now thanks. The ad was very clever and entertaining, almost a mini movie, no yelling or hard sell, very good. Thanks Ed 🙂
Thanks David! You actually answer more of my quastions withot asking then the forum i tried, they just say "its working, be happy"... Great work and your twist is outstanding....
Nice video, I worked for Philco in the 70s as a tv design engineer, Philco was American based, in Philadelphia (Phildelphia Electric Battery Company). I think this must have been licensed to the NZ company from a U.S. design. Since it was in a plastic cabinet, the U.S. version must have been hot chassis, and the 240 V design added a power transformer and changed the tubes(valves).
Hi Fred, I don't know the full history of Philco in NZ, I think the NZ government banned the import of radios early on so Philco set up a manufacturing base there, they may have imported the cabinet but I'm really don't know 🙂
Brilliant thank you. Made me go look at what kiwi radios I have stashed and I have a couple of later philcos and 4 little Bell radios of varying colours. Might pull one out tonight and have a play after my piece of kiwi pav....all the best.
Excellent job on rewinding the transformer. I'll have to eventually work up the courage to rewind one myself. I have an audio output transformer on a BIG tube amp I need to rebuild. Also, that commercial at the end was too funny! Thanks David!
Good morning David. Well you had me going at the start of this video, I thought how on earth can you get the same station so clear in three different places. Great video and the audio on that little radio was very crisp. You take care. Terry
Another lovely episode from your workshop. Sorry you've not been well, but clearly your sense of humour didn't suffer. Really enjoyed the video, seeing the Plessey parts reminded me of my Uncle who worked for the in the 60s here in the UK.
Hi Ken, they say your sense of humour is the last to go, well I say that anyway. It seems everyone knows someone who worked in the electronics industry in it's heyday. Thanks Ken 🙂
I know the chap in the commercial, but for the life of me I can't say the name, please help me out. Thanks again Dr. Dave for all the hard work. Please be safe.
Hey 👋, Mr. Tipton!! Very impressive with that tune at 17:30 🕠. It sounds so 1950’s. I do not know the name of it. Your radio 📻 repairs 👩🔧 are still very awesome 🤩. You’ll do very good 😌 on resurrecting that radio 📻 dial. I don’t know 🤷♀️ about the dial cord, or the dial light 💡 on this thing. Always remember that a majority of these radios 📻 are kind of like 👍 a Christmas tree 🎄 light 💡 set. That is, that the power 💥 is cut off to the entire radio 📻, in the event that the dial light 💡 burns 🥵 out. This is a safety feature to avoid electrical shocks, overheating 🥵 power 💥 cords, and/or fire 🔥. It also protects the radio 📻 from further damage, such as to the circuitry. Your friend, Jeff.
That Inexpensive transformer winding machine is paying off. Dave your radio skills keep multiplying every adventure you seem to pull another rabbit out of a hat. I wonder what other amazing innovations you have come up with out side your hobby, but I guess you'd have to stab another channel for that, thanks for the great adventure.
Thank you for sharing the transformer temperature method, I have a Heathkit amplifier with a transformer that gets worryingly hot and that is just the method I needed for testing it. Whish you good health! George.
Hi George, it was new to me too, when I did it the transformer wasn't completely cool and when I did the hot measurement it had been shut down for five minutes while I set up so really the test wasn't entirely valid. Take care 🙂
Amazing video David! Interesting to note that the temperature rise formula is for copper wire only since the temperature coefficient of resistance of copper is 0.393% per degree Celsius. I do not believe I have watched a single video of yours and not learned something in each one. Thank you sir!
Dave, you never cease to amaze and impress. That transformer winding was masterful and spot-on! I found Supertramp’s Breakfast in America recently on vinyl. What a great album! I also like how you snuck a little Elvis in!
Thank you Super Het. Supertramp on vinyl, I would like that, I can't believe the cost of second hand records now and just ordinary ones at that. Elvis sneaked in himself 😄
Nice to see you back David. I usually put electrolytics in the oven for a while and that often allows the innards to slide out intact. They are often set in wax or tar
Hello David, What I took away from this restoration, prompted me to order in some Presspahn Transformer Insulation Paper. I have a few cans to stuff. I liked this technique a lot and I like your can edge rolling technique to seal up too. Thank you. Cheers Peter
At 29:00 you calculated the temperature DIFFERENCE. You mentioned that the workshop is at 27C so that takes the winding to 65C. And that is confirmed by your fingers 😊 Well done, the new transformer. Kapton tape is such great stuff for this type of work. Heat resistant, strong and it can take some punches. Be well and greetings 👍🏻🤝🏻🇳🇱 Nard
Hi Nard, the transformer actually read 63C with the temp probe stuck between the transformer and the top cover. The calculations were not that accurate because the transformer had not fully cooled down before I took the first reading and there was a delay reading the second temperature as I set up the cameras etc. The main point was to show the method. Kapton tape is ideal. Thanks Nard, cheers 😃
You are quite amusing with that little skit on the radio. Winding the power transformer is a great idea if you have the gear - which you do. Well done!
Really interesting... my first radio that originally was used for the farm laborer's sleep out. The case (black) was damaged ( someone had spilled glue on the case. I found your transformer rewinding quite fascinating but there is no way I would have been willing to undertake that. Sorry to hear that you had been unwell. I especially like the effort you always put into restoring/re-stuffing the cans. The goose clip at the end had me smiling. Keep well - keep restoring and best wishes.
Hi Kenneth, thank you, I'm all good now. I'm getting the hang of re-stuffing capacitors now and just starting out on transformers, not that hard really... if you have the winder. Dave the goose is so well done and Brian Brown was perfect as Dave's voice. Thanks Kenneth, stay safe 🙂
Another cracking little radio project. Love the details like how you roll the end over on that capacitor and now you have me wanting to build a transformer . I don't need one at the moment but it looks fun.
That was incredible how you rewound that transformer. I done it a few times and I can never get all the e cores back in and it has a little clatter. The e cores are coated with shellac to electrically insulated from each other to minimize Eddy currents. It will still work fine even if one or two are touching metal to metal. You did a miracle
Hi Chris, the 'E's are hard to get back in, I leave the 'I's out until the 'E's are fitted, I also had a block of wood a tight fit in the core with a hole through the centre to mount it on the winding machine so it didn't get compressed when I wound the wire on, I forgot to show it in the video 🤦♂️🙂
Thank you for the video Dave. Just love to watch your work. Really liked this video with you showing and explaining the process of how you rebuild/rewind the transformer.
Great restoration as always mate. Loved every minute of it. Loved the funny stuff as well hope you and Mrs T are well and can't wait for the next restoration.
And another great repair done. Fantastic work on the power transformer rewind and impressive to say the least. Keep up the good work and will be looking forward to the next installment.
Hi Dave, glad to hear you are getting over the mystery virus. This is the first time I can recall your incorporation of some humor, I didn't know you had it in you; nice touch! Your radio restoration skills are branching out, as evidenced by rewinding the power transformer; that's great! Thanks for sharing the tip about removing solder with the horse-hair brush, that is new to me but, makes good sense. In looking at that power transformer, I believe it is slightly undersized for the amount of power being pulled from it. Being tucked into the chassis like it is, I expect the temperature rise to get quite high when being operated for hours at a time, due to heat given off by the valves. I also noticed a mistake in the design. By operating the rectifier halfwave, the peak currents are contributing to transformer heating. Since they are already using a power transformer, it would have been easy to add another 230 volt winding for fullwave but, the design was probably patterned after a mains connected, transformerless design. To be on the safe side, I recommend upping the value of the audio output cathode resistor to 270 ohms. This will reduce cathode current about 30%, which will reduce mains power consumption about 10%, adding to the thermal margin. Audio quality is unchanged unless the operator is used to listening volume levels so high it causes clipping. I would suggest attaching a label to the bulk electrolytic you restuffed (with the date of restuffing) so, someone working on the radio in the future doesn't replace it, assuming it is original. Also, some of those cans use pitch as an adhesive so, heating the cap may allow the guts to slide out on future restuffings. Working on old radios since the 1960's, here in the US, I have observed the mains voltage has been slowly increased over the years, perhaps in New Zealand as well? Back then, the mains measured 110 to 115 volts, now it is 120 to 125 volts. To handle this increase in the old radios, I place a resistor in series with the power cord to drop about 10 volts. As side benefits, the resistor also acts as a fuse and gives some voltage transient/surge protection.
Hi Bill, I try to inject a little humour in most videos, well my idea of humour at least 😄 The resistor idea has merit, I'll try it out. The transformer and the radio are built to be cheap and just do the job, you are correct, it's just adequate and that's all. Our mains voltages are all over the place, the standard voltage was officially dropped from 240V to 230V in the 80s but nothing changed, now with the addition of solar panels on every second roof the mains will go to the mid to high 240s during the day and back to the high 230s during peak demand. I added a resistor in the line in on the Carmen radio a few weeks ago. Thanks Bill 👍🙂
@@DavidTipton101 Interesting comment on the grid-tie solar, I had been hearing some utility voltage regulation problems with the Aussie grid, due to the high number of solar grid-tie systems in place. In the US (in the state of Florida in my case) we haven't encountered that problem yet. Probably due to the installation discouragement involved with governmental and utility red tape plus, your system must be highly insured. During the summer months in Florida, the temperatures typically runs in the mid 30's (Celsius), with humidity starting in the 90's in the morning and dropping to the low 60's at mid-day. Therefore, everyone uses lots of air conditioning to stay comfortable so, that grid-tie solar quickly gets consumed.
@@billharris6886 Solar panels are government subsidised here and are encouraged so they are plentiful, I think out summer here is similar to yours except the humidity isn't quite as high but it doesn't drop.
Great video , as always. I really enjoy your videos and can’t wait for the next one. I am also restoring radios ,test gear TV’s ….. but I couldn’t do the YT thing. Respect.

It seems to rewind a transformer is child's play for an expert radio tech like you Dave! Very good work all around on this one, very good work for sure.
Thank you Jeff 🙂
Nice rewind, David! Thank you for using my calculator, it is really nice to see it being put to good use :)
Ahhh... Hi Delatsch. Your calculator was very handy and answered all the questions regarding wire size current flow and turns, thank you it was very good 👍🙂
Dear Mr. Tipton, That is a nice sounding radio and the radio cabinet shown early was just so nice, you do such good work, great job.
Thank you again mark 👍🙂
That radio has so few parts, yet sounds really great! And the transformer rewind was a treat. Thanks for posting.
Thank you PauSto Sto, thanks for watching 🙂
Dear Mr. Tipton, The way you did that capacitor is very impressive, What a nice job you have done....
Thank you Mark 🙂
Hi David. Another great radio journey. That transformer really did need some attention and watching you unwind and rewind it was mesmerising. I’m sure the owner will be well chuffed with it. Loved the air New Zealand ad at the end as well. Cheers Graham
Hi Graham, I hope I did the right thing rewinding transformer. The ad is brilliant and typical of the friendly banter between us and the Kiwis. Thanks Graham 😃
Much kudos for the transformer rewind, and the cap restuff was masterful. you are definitely one of the best radio restorers on the net. Please treat yourself to a bottle of Coopers. Cheers from the UK, Steve.
Thanks Steve, a bottle of Coopers sounds just right, Thanks and cheers 🍺🙂
Fascinating watching you do the math and wind the transformer. Great stuff. Ad at the end was a nice touch. Love your sense of humor. Thanks David. 73 de KB7ICI....Bill
My transformer winder spreadsheet did most of the math thank goodness. The Dave the goose ad is brilliant, it's so well done. Thanks Bill 👍😄
Thank you Sir David! wonderful to wake up and find another adventure.
Nice radio. Sounds terrific.
Hope you're feeling better!!
THANK YOU!!
Hi John, thank you. I'm all better now thank you 🙂
1000th Thumbs Up!
Really enjoyed the Xfmr rewind. I think the other one was a first-class fire hazard! Now both you and you customer have peace of mind!
Really loved the advert!
Thank you SpinStar1956, the old transformer was a hazard. The ad was great 😄
That is the best transformer rebuild video I have seen. Good job.
Thank you Johnny 🙂
Hi Dave,
Good to hear you are over the worst of the mystery virus: we have to be vigilant as best we are able.
The Philco is a neat looking little radio - I can certainly see it’s appeal. It is not too dissimilar looking from the 1957 Bell Colt. A few of those ‘budget’ New Zealand valve radios might not look much internally, but the ones I’ve seen and heard work exceptionally well. The same can be said about the Philco Alabama radio - and a very attractive little radio! also!
I was happy to see the mains transformer rewind was a success. Those types of job can easily go wrong, especially if one does not have a coil winder with a turns counter - a nice bit of kit you have for doing that type of work.
As always, another superb radio repair video my friend. For the love of God, stay safe, all the best from Phil.
Hi Phil, thanks, I'm well over the virus, a few days in bed had it sorted. Exactly, the Bell Colt looked very similar to this one, I would love a Colt as well one day. This was my first attempt at a real transformer re-wind so I was nervous at the outcome but it was pretty much spot on, beginners luck I suppose. Thanks Phil, take care yourself 👍🙂
Hi David. Superb job yet again. You have got transformer rewinds off to a fine art. The set turned out really well. Love the advert at the end, it really made me laugh. As always I thoroughly enjoyed watching. Cheers Chris.
Thank you Chris, I'm glad you enjoyed it and I think the ad at the end is brilliant 😄
Rewinding the transformer looks like a lot of hard work, even with the winder. But a good job on adapting the winder seems to have made it easier. Great watch, lots of humour - especially regarding the Kiwis (if I'm allowed to call them that). Had a holiday of a lifetime with my then partner, now wife travelling down NZ - Auckland to Queenstown 3 years ago. Thanks again for sharing another great repair job. Always look forward to seeing them.
It is a bit Radio-Ged but quite enjoyable and the winder is much better behaved now. I think the Kiwis are quite happy to be called that. We spent three weeks in a camper doing the North and South islands some years ago, stunning country and the Kiwis were very friendly. You were lucky to be able to do it too. Thank Radio-Ged 👍🙂
Hi Dave I love the way you fearlessly go ahead and rewind the transformer. I watched this the other day and today thought it is just as well the owner gave the go ahead ,because I reckon all that carbonised enamelled wire was acting like a resistor shorting turns. Sooner or later it would fail possibly catching fire with all that wax and paper it was made of. And I noticed you did a great job of the rewind just feeding the wire by hand.
Modern enamelled wire is so tough it can be bunch wound and never short. I am told you can twist this wire tightly together walk on it and it will not short.
I liked the fun with the kiwi overdubs.
Hi Robert, I'm not sure if it's fearless or brainless, never the less, the transformer worked. I improved my winding machine for another transformer. I have another transformer to wind in the near future and I will update the winder again for that. The wire coating is super tough theses days and I reckon you could do as you say and it would stay insulated. I should try that. Thanks Robert 🙂
Thank you for sharing. Great job on the transformer. Cheers!
Thank you Bruce 😃
Another great restoration David. Watching you rewind that transformer was fascinating. Most techs would search out a replacement but you don't faff about with an easy option like that, you get stuck in and recycle the original. Fantastic job!
Thanks Bruce, I thought it was about time to start rewinding them, it's hard to get them sometimes 🙂
Hahahahahahaha your humor is great Dave.
I loved the transformer calculations and winding.
Beautiful work!
love your humour & those old ads in your intro. thanks for the vids mate
Thank you Rubus Roo 🙂
@@DavidTipton101 much love from the Old Dart!
Sorry to hear you were a bit under the weather David, take care..Wonderful video, so much learned especially that transformer winding, so cool...Love the advert at the end, just so funny..Thanks again for sharing, your expert knowledge..What a treat as always..Ed..uk..😀
Hi Ed, I'm glad you enjoyed it. I'm all better now thanks. The ad was very clever and entertaining, almost a mini movie, no yelling or hard sell, very good. Thanks Ed 🙂
Even though I've seen you do this before, I still marvel at the way you rebuild a power transformer. Well done David.
Thank you lakrfan 49 🙂
Oddly satisfying work on this wonderfully named radio.
Thank you Wayne 🙂
Thanks David! You actually answer more of my quastions withot asking then the forum i tried, they just say "its working, be happy"... Great work and your twist is outstanding....
Thanks Leif, I've been practising my twist for a week 😉🙂
Nice video, I worked for Philco in the 70s as a tv design engineer, Philco was American based, in Philadelphia (Phildelphia Electric Battery Company). I think this must have been licensed to the NZ company from a U.S. design. Since it was in a plastic cabinet, the U.S. version must have been hot chassis, and the 240 V design added a power transformer and changed the tubes(valves).
Hi Fred, I don't know the full history of Philco in NZ, I think the NZ government banned the import of radios early on so Philco set up a manufacturing base there, they may have imported the cabinet but I'm really don't know 🙂
Brilliant thank you. Made me go look at what kiwi radios I have stashed and I have a couple of later philcos and 4 little Bell radios of varying colours. Might pull one out tonight and have a play after my piece of kiwi pav....all the best.
Haha... Kiwi pav indeed 😂 I like the little Bell radios too similar to this on in looks, I hope to get one one day. Good luck with yours 🙂
Pretty cool you can rewind those transformers like that. Always fun to watch your videos!
Thank you Volktales 🙂
David, this episode is grand.
Good stuff here going the extra mile
Smiling all the way
Thank you Craig 😃
Great job as always. I know that rewinding transformers is new to you but you’re doing a great job.
Thank you Ripley, the only way from here is up... I hope 😄
Excellent job on rewinding the transformer. I'll have to eventually work up the courage to rewind one myself. I have an audio output transformer on a BIG tube amp I need to rebuild. Also, that commercial at the end was too funny! Thanks David!
Hi Adam, thank you. It's not hard but I will improve as I go along I hope. The ad was very well done 🙂
Great video Dave. I always learn a lot from them. Always great to see you. Take care. 😃
Thank you batman387. Take care 👍🙂
Thank you for your always entertaining work, as for the technical aspects, my head hurts,
Haha... it is a bit head hurting sometimes. Thanks Martin 😊
Good morning David. Well you had me going at the start of this video, I thought how on earth can you get the same station so clear in three different places. Great video and the audio on that little radio was very crisp. You take care. Terry
Haha... sorry Terry and good morning to you. The radio worked very well I agree, thanks Terry 👍🙂
Another lovely episode from your workshop. Sorry you've not been well, but clearly your sense of humour didn't suffer. Really enjoyed the video, seeing the Plessey parts reminded me of my Uncle who worked for the in the 60s here in the UK.
Hi Ken, they say your sense of humour is the last to go, well I say that anyway. It seems everyone knows someone who worked in the electronics industry in it's heyday. Thanks Ken 🙂
Hope you never stop, brilliant.
Thank you Maurice 🙂
I know the chap in the commercial, but for the life of me I can't say the name, please help me out.
Thanks again Dr. Dave for all the hard work. Please be safe.
Hi Mr Bond, it was Brian Brown who was also the bartender at the end. My pleasure, stay safe 😃
Hey 👋, Mr. Tipton!! Very impressive with that tune at 17:30 🕠. It sounds so 1950’s. I do not know the name of it. Your radio 📻 repairs 👩🔧 are still very awesome 🤩. You’ll do very good 😌 on resurrecting that radio 📻 dial. I don’t know 🤷♀️ about the dial cord, or the dial light 💡 on this thing. Always remember that a majority of these radios 📻 are kind of like 👍 a Christmas tree 🎄 light 💡 set. That is, that the power 💥 is cut off to the entire radio 📻, in the event that the dial light 💡 burns 🥵 out. This is a safety feature to avoid electrical shocks, overheating 🥵 power 💥 cords, and/or fire 🔥. It also protects the radio 📻 from further damage, such as to the circuitry. Your friend, Jeff.
Johan Glössner - The Guitar Twist, released this year!
@@6A8G Thank you 😊. Your friend, Jeff.
Hi Jeffrey, I get the music from Epidemic sound, it's royalty free. This radio has a transformer so no Xmas tree light set up at all but thanks 🙂
@@DavidTipton101 I found it on TH-cam with The Guitar 🎸 Twist by Johan Glossner. I have fun 🤩 with it.
That Inexpensive transformer winding machine is paying off. Dave your radio skills keep multiplying every adventure you seem to pull another rabbit out of a hat. I wonder what other amazing innovations you have come up with out side your hobby, but I guess you'd have to stab another channel for that, thanks for the great adventure.
Thanks Mack, the winding machine is working pretty good now after a few modifications. Haha... I probably would need another channel 😄
It's a radio of quality knows how to receive Kiwi stations. Nice work David.
Hi Robert, amazing radio to pick up New Zealand so clearly I thought 😂 Thanks Robert.
David Tipton you did a good job at re building the tranform
Thanks Greg 🙂
Thank you David; I’ve just discovered your videos, they are excellent. I like your gentle expertise.
Thank you Patrick and welcome to my channel 👍😀
Thank you for sharing the transformer temperature method, I have a Heathkit amplifier with a transformer that gets worryingly hot and that is just the method I needed for testing it. Whish you good health! George.
Hi George, it was new to me too, when I did it the transformer wasn't completely cool and when I did the hot measurement it had been shut down for five minutes while I set up so really the test wasn't entirely valid. Take care 🙂
OMG - LOL. The old Martin Molly show. That was the best drive time radio show ever.
I know, I was so disappointed when they stopped doing the show, very funny 😀
Much enjoyed, David, coil winding always very interesting to watch.
Hi Theo, thank you 👍😀
Amazing video David! Interesting to note that the temperature rise formula is for copper wire only since the temperature coefficient of resistance of copper is 0.393% per degree Celsius. I do not believe I have watched a single video of yours and not learned something in each one. Thank you sir!
Thanks William. I think we both learn something 👍😀
Dave, you never cease to amaze and impress. That transformer winding was masterful and spot-on!
I found Supertramp’s Breakfast in America recently on vinyl. What a great album!
I also like how you snuck a little Elvis in!
Thank you Super Het. Supertramp on vinyl, I would like that, I can't believe the cost of second hand records now and just ordinary ones at that. Elvis sneaked in himself 😄
@@DavidTipton101 Ya he has a tendency to do that from time to time... What a showboat.
@@MatthewHolevinski 😄
Another cracking journey - thank you so much for sharing
Thank you Stephen 🙂
Absolutely fantastic job on this radio. Great video 👏👏👍
Thank you Radio Fixer 🙂
Nice to see you back David. I usually put electrolytics in the oven for a while and that often allows the innards to slide out intact. They are often set in wax or tar
Hi jonka1, I will try heating them next time, I usually don't have any trouble removing the innards, this one was a bit different 👍🙂
I use the same heat gun which I used to burn paint off my house. Must be fairly hot, there's a note on the side advising not to use it as a hairdryer!
@@6A8G Haha... that's sage advice 😂
Great restore as always Dave, loved the ad too. 😄
Hi Brian, thank you, the ad was very well done 🙂
David, brilliant display of knowledge and workmanship. I love your rewinds... its so cool to watch how you do it.. excellent stuff Mate.
Hi Ron, thank you, it was my first real rewind so I was pretty happy it worked so well, I will get better as I do more... I hope 🙂
Hello David,
What I took away from this restoration, prompted me to order in some Presspahn Transformer Insulation Paper. I have a few cans to stuff. I liked this technique a lot and I like your can edge rolling technique to seal up too.
Thank you.
Cheers
Peter
Hi Peter, thanks, the capacitor stuffing technique is coming along nicely. Good idea lining them with the paper too. Thanks Peter 🙂
At 29:00 you calculated the temperature DIFFERENCE. You mentioned that the workshop is at 27C so that takes the winding to 65C. And that is confirmed by your fingers 😊
Well done, the new transformer. Kapton tape is such great stuff for this type of work. Heat resistant, strong and it can take some punches.
Be well and greetings 👍🏻🤝🏻🇳🇱
Nard
Hi Nard, the transformer actually read 63C with the temp probe stuck between the transformer and the top cover. The calculations were not that accurate because the transformer had not fully cooled down before I took the first reading and there was a delay reading the second temperature as I set up the cameras etc. The main point was to show the method. Kapton tape is ideal. Thanks Nard, cheers 😃
You are quite amusing with that little skit on the radio. Winding the power transformer is a great idea if you have the gear - which you do. Well done!
Thank you John, you need a winder with a counter to do the transformers for sure 🙂
Dear Mr. Tipton, Great video, you really do excellent work on that capacitor, looks like you nailed that one, great job...):
Thanks Mark 😀
Really interesting... my first radio that originally was used for the farm laborer's sleep out. The case (black) was damaged ( someone had spilled glue on the case. I found your transformer rewinding quite fascinating but there is no way I would have been willing to undertake that. Sorry to hear that you had been unwell. I especially like the effort you always put into restoring/re-stuffing the cans. The goose clip at the end had me smiling. Keep well - keep restoring and best wishes.
Hi Kenneth, thank you, I'm all good now. I'm getting the hang of re-stuffing capacitors now and just starting out on transformers, not that hard really... if you have the winder. Dave the goose is so well done and Brian Brown was perfect as Dave's voice. Thanks Kenneth, stay safe 🙂
Another cracking little radio project. Love the details like how you roll the end over on that capacitor and now you have me wanting to build a transformer . I don't need one at the moment but it looks fun.
Haha... you never know when you will want a spare transformer and it was fun 😄 Thanks Jonathan.
Thanks!
Thank you for your support Peter 👍😊
That was incredible how you rewound that transformer. I done it a few times and I can never get all the e cores back in and it has a little clatter. The e cores are coated with shellac to electrically insulated from each other to minimize Eddy currents. It will still work fine even if one or two are touching metal to metal. You did a miracle
Hi Chris, the 'E's are hard to get back in, I leave the 'I's out until the 'E's are fitted, I also had a block of wood a tight fit in the core with a hole through the centre to mount it on the winding machine so it didn't get compressed when I wound the wire on, I forgot to show it in the video 🤦♂️🙂
Thank you for the video Dave. Just love to watch your work. Really liked this video with you showing and explaining the process of how you rebuild/rewind the transformer.
Thank you John, I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Another awesome video Dave, Thank you mate these videos bring balance to the universe. Cheers!
Thank you A Last, I'm glad you enjoy them. Cheers 😃

Thanks tube-dude 👑 😄
Hi Dave, glad to hear you are getting over the mystery virus. This is the first time I can recall your incorporation of some humor, I didn't know you had it in you; nice touch!
Your radio restoration skills are branching out, as evidenced by rewinding the power transformer; that's great!
Thanks for sharing the tip about removing solder with the horse-hair brush, that is new to me but, makes good sense.
In looking at that power transformer, I believe it is slightly undersized for the amount of power being pulled from it. Being tucked into the chassis like it is, I expect the temperature rise to get quite high when being operated for hours at a time, due to heat given off by the valves. I also noticed a mistake in the design. By operating the rectifier halfwave, the peak currents are contributing to transformer heating. Since they are already using a power transformer, it would have been easy to add another 230 volt winding for fullwave but, the design was probably patterned after a mains connected, transformerless design. To be on the safe side, I recommend upping the value of the audio output cathode resistor to 270 ohms. This will reduce cathode current about 30%, which will reduce mains power consumption about 10%, adding to the thermal margin. Audio quality is unchanged unless the operator is used to listening volume levels so high it causes clipping.
I would suggest attaching a label to the bulk electrolytic you restuffed (with the date of restuffing) so, someone working on the radio in the future doesn't replace it, assuming it is original. Also, some of those cans use pitch as an adhesive so, heating the cap may allow the guts to slide out on future restuffings.
Working on old radios since the 1960's, here in the US, I have observed the mains voltage has been slowly increased over the years, perhaps in New Zealand as well? Back then, the mains measured 110 to 115 volts, now it is 120 to 125 volts. To handle this increase in the old radios, I place a resistor in series with the power cord to drop about 10 volts. As side benefits, the resistor also acts as a fuse and gives some voltage transient/surge protection.
Hi Bill, I try to inject a little humour in most videos, well my idea of humour at least 😄 The resistor idea has merit, I'll try it out. The transformer and the radio are built to be cheap and just do the job, you are correct, it's just adequate and that's all. Our mains voltages are all over the place, the standard voltage was officially dropped from 240V to 230V in the 80s but nothing changed, now with the addition of solar panels on every second roof the mains will go to the mid to high 240s during the day and back to the high 230s during peak demand. I added a resistor in the line in on the Carmen radio a few weeks ago. Thanks Bill 👍🙂
@@DavidTipton101 Interesting comment on the grid-tie solar, I had been hearing some utility voltage regulation problems with the Aussie grid, due to the high number of solar grid-tie systems in place. In the US (in the state of Florida in my case) we haven't encountered that problem yet. Probably due to the installation discouragement involved with governmental and utility red tape plus, your system must be highly insured. During the summer months in Florida, the temperatures typically runs in the mid 30's (Celsius), with humidity starting in the 90's in the morning and dropping to the low 60's at mid-day. Therefore, everyone uses lots of air conditioning to stay comfortable so, that grid-tie solar quickly gets consumed.
@@billharris6886 Solar panels are government subsidised here and are encouraged so they are plentiful, I think out summer here is similar to yours except the humidity isn't quite as high but it doesn't drop.
That’s a fantastic job on the Philco, good reception picking up those Kiwi channels 🤣🤣
Hi Glenn, thank you. We aren't that far from NZ, the transmission came through loud and clear 😄😉
Great video , as always. I really enjoy your videos and can’t wait for the next one.
I am also restoring radios ,test gear TV’s ….. but I couldn’t do the YT thing. Respect.
You made my day with that Carmen radio as I am Romanian and then you added the cherry on top with this New Zealand radio as I live in New Zealand.
Best regards and if it’s anything I can help with ,being here in NZ, please drop me a line here.
