  • Great detective work plus training for Emi. Yes, she was not too engaged in this repair effort. However, I will keep working on her. Want to place the seed. I really desire someone to take the staff when D-Lab has retired/faded away/beamed to another planet, whatever my fate. I want this to continue. She is my hope. I see the spark in her eyes at times, she gets it. I will do my best to promote/motivate her. Let your comments do the same.

    I watched my dad fix radios and black and white TV's in the early 50's. He explained everything as he went along just like you did. Those were magic times and I was wired for life.

    I call that a Polish Watt Meter. It's a handy piece of test equipment, especially when you use someone elses finger.

    Great detector back in the day. Still a highly sought after one today. Good job getting it going again.

    My old man gave me an ohmmeter when I was 10 years old and he taught me how to use it. That was 50 years ago.

    That’s funny when you mention the smoke test. I thought of “Brad the Guitaroligest” keep replacing things and burning things until it’s all replaced and fixed. Lol 😂. Great videos I’ve learned a lot over the years from your videos.

    A friend of Mine was the Engineer for Whites Metal Detector came up with the discriminator Circuit for the Whites Metal detectors his name is William Lahr. We used to go gold panning together with a dredge he had made and the whites metal detector when we were sniping cracks for gold. A very sold unit.

    Good video. I have a Whites Eagle II and needed a part for it. The awesome folks at Whites sent me the part for NO CHARGE! Top notch customer service and parts dept.
    The battery pack is the same one as I use in mine.
    Keep her interested, as it can benefit her in later life, and maybe one day it will be her lab!

    Terry, I met you at the Southfield show a few months ago. (I'm in your video.) I too am an avid detectorist. My White's mxt had similar issues. With this video I found the problem. Thanks man!

    I've had the same thing happen trying to repair equipment at times. Troubleshoot to a conclusion, reasonably sure I've identified the bad part, go through all the time and effort to replace it, and... only to have the exact same problem as before. Few things more frustrating. Emmi's pretty young, as she gets older I think she'll eventually realize what a golden opportunity she has, and how fortunate to have such a great grandpa and teacher. Be patient, from what I'm experiencing with my own 10 year old great nephew, it takes time, he seems to be kind of surrounded and absorbed right now with his age specific influences and entertainment coming at him from all directions, and tends to get bored quickly with things that fall outside of that.

    OMG Terry, look how much Emi has grown ; right before our eyes. I tell you brother, one day she is going watch these videos and have fond memories of time with Grandpa. Poor Emi looks tired, god bless her. I love watching these videos. BTW Terry, I bought one of those hair clippers and used it myself and it works great !! Thanks for the tip!!! One day you should have Marsha host a video and calls it MLab and you can bring her wine... Role reversal :) Love it. GREAT JOB !!!!

    Hey Terry, do treasure your time with Emi. She's an exceptional young lady. Our daughter, Sarah (N9YWQ) & I did the same thing 25 years ago & she got her Tech Plus at that time. Time passes by way too fast. Thankfully, she's still maintained her interest & recently got her General. I hope Emi will do the same.

    Off topic but it's important. You Johnson guys out there are crazy! I had an eye on a Viking some months ago, not the II, and it went unsold because he wanted over $550. So he relisted it of course. I was waiting to see if reality might sink in. Nope! He upped the price. I couldn't belive it. Last I saw it was almost a grand, with no lookers. So I bought my Heathkit. lol. Heck, all I wanna do is toss out a quick 'n8nk' after the 30 minute long CQs on 80 AM. ... he slides the clamp on the neck of his chrome lollypop up.. setting the brick on the key as it were.. and says clearly into the blindingly shiny lollypop head "cq" - then he turns inward, and ponders the meaning of life. Some minutes later he issues another introspective "cq" then wanders into the kitchen to make his morning pot of joe. Fresh steaming cup in hand 30 minutes later, I hear footsteps... and then comes forth a relaxed, slowly ennunciated "cq... cq... cq... this is joe-dirt calling cq... joe-dirt, mid America calling cq... over and listening for any call" :) 73!

    Hi D-Lab, great videos and Lab setup. Thank you for posting. Would you happen to know of a replacement switch for the Mode Selector Switch on a Whites CoinMaster 6000, or any information that would help me find a replacement switch on arrow/ digikey / mouser etc...? I'ld like to replace a broken mode selector switch for a friend's kid.

    I had to return the selenium speaker. Very bad speaker, it has cone like elephant's ear, no details, no bass, very low sensitivity, even massive magnet can´t help. I can´t believe JBL produce such bad speaker. Thanks for the video, your friend is completely deaf.

      I don't think she's got 'the bug' yet. It's not until kids get 'the bug' that they really get right into electronics and are hungry and attentive to learn as much as they can. Girls tend to get it less than boys do.
