- Footage from the recent ARCI Radiofest. Marcia and I had a blast! Lots of cool old radios. I was really wanting to buy a new toy, however the rolling pin was hovering over me! Best that I dont buy, since I am so overloaded with projects/repairs. This was the best radio experience we have had. No pressures/nice hotel/great food/nice people/perfect weather. We really needed the break. I love making these videos for all of you. Let me know if you want more and we will make special trips to cover events. Thank you all for your kind support of D-lab electronics. TD

Very cool stuff.
I want to mention that tuning bars remote because it has a special memory for me.
My 1st job in a TV repair shop back in 1974 the owner put me to the test fixing a TV that had the chanel changing motor that would start changing the chanels non stop as soon as the picture started warming up.
Well, I figured it out in 15 min.
The reciever in the set that was listening for the 1 bar tone to activate the chanel change just kept the motor running because the Horozontal output tube was giving off the harmonic of the exact tone of the bar in the hand held remoe you had there.
Never forgot that. The shop owner was impressed that I figured that out so soon.
Knowing what I know now, it was not that impressive but I would have did the same thing to a new guy anyway. :-)
All those tube amplifiers, I actually worked on some of those too.
Some people are die hards for that old tube stuff. I gotta say I am too.
Great video. Beautiful xyl! Lucky dog!
I had no idea this was near me. I live 40 miles away and saw 4 things i wanted. Darn!!!!
I loved the placment of the Drake plugs being over a storm water catch basin
Wow! Bob Anderson and Terry together on one video. Two of my favourite channels.
Yes Terry & Marcia! Keep making video's of the events you attend. Love them, you two always have fun and you get the vendors and attendee's to smile and laugh along with you! Give Marcia a hug for me....LOL
I used to go to these all the time when they were held in Elgin.
Those chrome plated Scott's in the box.. Maaaaaaan, I would've done anything to get those .. This place, is like heaven for tube heads
Bob Anderson! Love your channel!
Terry, thank you for serving our great United States of America!
Man, Terry! I can't express how much I enjoyed this morning out at the swap meet! I'm unable to get out and about to events like this anymore, and this was a real treat! You may have heard me yelling "Wait! Wait! I want to look this one over a little more!" Fun video. Thanks!
Yes, please keep showing me all the events that I missed, lol. Seriously I really enjoy seeing all the goodies out there and the places you visit. Keep up the great work!
Terry, what an amazing walk thru..... so much classic vintage gear.. thank you so much for sharing...you are a lucky man that Marcia enjoys doing these things with you. Very cool, thanks sir
Man, you get up as early as me! Yes, we had a blast. Marcia is a good sport
@@d-labelectronics There is never enough time to work on cool electronics.. you gotta make the time :) Have a great day my friend.
The 2022 ARCI Antique Radio Fest Chicago is on August 5th and 6th. I'd love to run into you and say hi. You have taught me so much.
Very nice video. Thanks. Happy Christmas.
Wow, I finally caught up to this after 3 years Now I'm trying to find me. I saw it in the preview but will have to scope the video. I was standing by the Donation Auction sitting on and LEANING on my Philco Model 87 radio hamming it up like a broadcast pro that I used to be. I didn't realize that was you D-lab. I love your products. Had I known it was you I would have given you the radio. Thank you. Gary in Schaumburg.
You don't know how much I enjoy these radio show videos! Thank you so much for doing them. Seeing this equipment from the past is always wonderful, almost as much fun as watching you and Marcia as she pretends to give you a hard way to go about bringing a ton of equipment home. Next time you go to a show like this rent a U-Haul van and see what she does.
Notes and observations about items in this video:
You saw @ 27:14 one of the very first ever portable TVs. They used a rather large and expensive battery that would provide about 45 minutes of viewing time.
At 32"39 is a navigational direction finding radio. By having maps that shows the transmitting tower locations the antenna can be turned and the radio carefully tuned to triangulate the position of your boat on a large lake. These were used before Loran which predated GPS.
That was Setcher Carlson. Set Cher
At 47:56 is a Philco Predicta, a B&W TV made to look like it came from the future. You saw a few others too, Philco made several models. When I was in vocational school someone brought one of those into the the Radio and TV class to have repaired. It stood upright sort of like another one in this video (1:00:50). Beside that second Predicta was an Atwater Kent TRF breadboard. NICE! And yes, that little cathedral had a cast faceplate. Sorry, I can't recall the correct term for that right now.
At 48:18 are two Edison phonograph cylinders. They are made of a hard wax with the groove cut around the cylinder. This was the very first successful method of recording and playing back sound. Sound is recorded vertically in the groove. That Edison dis phonograph in the video uses the same vertical sound groove technology. The Edison players wern't nearly as much of a lathe as the Gramophones and Victrolas because the tone arm weight was not transferred to Edison's cylinders or disks, only the weight of the diaphragm and part of the diaphragm housing. The disks were called Daimond Disks because the Edison Disk Phonographs used a diamond conical stylus and the records were a hard phenolic resin similar to, but predating (~20years), Bakelite.
At 1:17:49 is in fact a wire recorder. These were used a lot by executives although the entertainment world used them too.
Thanks for sporting one of our Museum of Radio and Technology shirts! (Marcia needs one too.) If you are EVER going to be around the Huntington WV area, please do call and let us know. I'd love to meet you and show you around our museum. You have probably met Geoff Bourne and Grace McMillan when you bought that shirt on your last radio show video. BTW, last Saturday and Friday a week before another one of our members and fellow hams was working on a Johnson transmitter. Yes, we have an operating ham shake with numerous radios, boat anchors to older solid state. It's worth bending the course if you are passing anywhere towards our direction!
Thanks again Terry. Love watching your videos.
Thanks for making it to Radiofest Terry. I think you did a marvelous job of covering the event and I especially like the fact that you stopped to talk to many of the participants. The Antique Radio Club of Illinois, Radiofest is still one of the best annual events around. The current location at the new Shriner's Medinah facility outside of Chicago is wonderful with plenty of space, excellent programs and good food. Harry
One of the great events of the year! Welcome to Chicago by the way. De N9JCQ
Terry, after seeing you and your wife Marcia having a good time. I enjoy your videos and all tips when working on high powered radios, clearly shows your trying to help people. God Bless you and your family.
You are so blessed dude!!! Such a beautiful wife...and not just physical appearance...she is beautiful from within! Thanks for sharing these videos!
Some of those catalin radios are gorgeous.
we were ARCI members in the 80's/90's sold MANY radios there. Anyone remember Ralph Muchow??
As a child ( 50's), my dad bought me a battery powered hand-held portable tube type radio. I remember it took a 67 volt battery that looked like a long 9v battery. Back then, I would take things apart to see what made them work, but I was not good at the reassembly part. I have not seen this type of radio since. I really wish I hadn't messed with it.
27:17 those are soooooo cool!! Thats a Philco Safari from 1959! I’m a young kid absolutely obsessed with transistor radios from 1954-1963 and watching these videos make me so jealous I don’t have meets like this in North Carolina or Erie PA where I live. 56:34 woooooow those early to mid 50s tube radios are awesome! Watching these videos I wish I gained the power of teleportation
This is the closest to Erie Pa that I could find. www.pittantiqueradios.org/ This show is also coming up in March of 2020. cc-awa.club/arc
My fave youtuber mr Bob Andersen who has some awsome TVs and Radios
Yeah, that's me at 1:24:07 :) Wish I had shaved that morning :P
bandersentv your beard was just fine and you got yourself another subscriber.
Not much into TV’s but I’m sure I’ll learn something from you. Thank you for sharing the knowledge.
@@Goforitmanager Thank you. I also work on radios, test equipment and the occasional home improvement project.
“Don’t get any ideas!” Great stuff, Terry!
Awesome show....felt like I was right there with you guys.
This is my most feberat topic. 🤝🤲
Very cool to see bandersentv in the flesh finally. The swap meets are a lot larger there than they are in Atlanta!
Blew right past that Hickok TV7 at 25:37, man. Thanks for the video. Hope you grabbed those Dynaco monos!
Terry, great walk through on these very cool items! Marsha was a great added addition. Just like family and friends morning stroll. Thank you for the post! Greetings and blessings to you and the family from Southern California more exactly Santa Clarita!
Well stated and I totally agree.
After watching this for like a half hour, I keep telling myself "gotta git goin" got stuff to do, but....Still here watching after an hour! I'm afraid of these shows myself! Afraid to spent too much $ and not have the room in my VW beetle to bring it all back home!
Hi
There is an estate sale in Paxton, Illinois with a garage full of old radios and parts.

Blind feeling was the tune after Dream Weaver one of the best on the album.
That was a crosley ice ball you put one side on the stove and the other side in a insulated box it was one of the first refrigerators
So much of that stuff is so cool unfortunately I don't know what a lot of it is.
Very appreciative your sharing as you go really informative
Great video Terry.... like others say, I wish we had something like that event here in the backwoods of Northern Ontario....
Someone really needs to make a Terry Dayton 'Look at this jobber!' t-shirt :D
It sure would be tough to pick one or two out of all that!
Can't wait to see the vid with Emmi and gramps doin code, Terry at 25wpm, lol.
Some of that Scott stuff looked good.
Swap "fest", yup the donuts, one for mama, one for papa, 👍 for Marsha!
Real well done video. I wish I had attended this year.
Addison, Illinois. West suburbs of Chicago
Very nice and I'm glad you had company
What are the chances? That Jack Bauman that you talked to that was in the Air Force mentioned he was in Baudette MN. I was stationed there as well in the late 70's till the base closed. It was a Cold War Era early warning radar site.
Wow! Great show Terry! I was thinking I've got a few vintage electronics around here and at my parents house. I have a 1/4 inch Telefunken reel to reel, it's pretty old, some old pocket radios made by Zenith, probably made in the 40s and 50s. I've got two Pioneer stereos made in early 70-72. My dad had an old antique stand up radio that ran on batteries, it was my grandmas. It's in the attic, I don't even know if it's functional anymore. My dad had a Magnavox console stereo, it still works, there's a few other old things we have. Inspires me to see if can't possibly fix them up. I enjoyed the video. Thanks!
Worked 4 Zenith in 1963 kg6mn
La aussi je suis de retour dans le monde de la radio j'adore regarder se genres de vidéos un passé temps vu que j' aime la hifi la stéréo et que un fervent de la hifi constructeur d enceinte acoustique c est magique intéressant mes amis.
Look a dat jobber!!!!!!!
50:00 No it’s not the stock lid I have the same receiver here in the house on display was never originally painted white either! BTW I’ve notice a few of the receivers there are the same models I own
The item at 26:09 is a Crosley Icyball. It's an early type of absorbtion refrigerator. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icyball
Wish we had one of these vintage radio swapmeets here in kingman az. I would go viner nutzs.!
There is one next month. Info is at website: azantiqueradioclub.org/index.php/81-2/
Marcia a cute girl, but you knew that.
that would be the speaker on top of the westinghouse dude
Going to a ham fest next month looking for an multi band radio but dont have to sell my body parts to afford my father was a ham W9CMX he has passed but i still have interest in the hobby
The Rca dog is named Nipper 😊🐕
Looks like some nice stuff
Did you get that big radio? The one missing the knobs?
Old is good, ever thought filming an old engine show? (Buckley mi) it' cool, & it's next weekend
Where are the Heathkits?
I'm thinking, is Marcia related to my wife also known as Atilla the hen, she misses nothing where money is concerned, I feel your pain.
Hey. Where is all of the snow?
I tried to find the commercial of the Hasbro Navy Blinkers on TH-cam. No luck. I saw it in around 1963 when I was a smaller brat.
15:10 - I see my first RCA Strato World radio, just like the one I am currently restoring. Cool! I've watched a lot of these radio fest videos and that is the first time I saw this rare RCA radio. In fact, I had never seen an RCA Strato World before I was given one last month. (Thanks, N6VFH!) Only $100? I have spent more than that for the battery replica and batteries to put in it! RCA VS047 with 6 D cells and 60 AA cells! (From www.elmphotography.com/radio.htm)
15:39 - Phontrix tape recorder from Germany. I had one when I was 11 and it was the best portable I have ever owned.
I'm kinda surprised that for someone who does restorations of audio gear along with the old radios, you just walk on by all the cool glass audio gear with barely a peep and then go on about some junky alien space ship thingy. But you are not alone, whenever I watch the Kutztown videos those guys focus on some pos stuff and completely camera-away from some very interesting audio gear, or rather ALL the audio gear, which is really the main growth area in vintage electronics these days, I don't get it!
Tube guy. No info on how to contact. Web site was garbeled
Load up the front seat and give Marsha some cash for a bus ticket home..
Terry, you're really lucky Marcia puts up with you!
Maybe you need to leave her at home next time. LOL
At 35:00 the radio is a Nordmende.
fedora, pork pie, cabbie flat.
All this trash is not worth 5 $ LOL
