My grandmother would have a heart attack! I got behind her TV when I was a kid just to fix her connection (she had the old alligator connections) and she was beside herself telling me not to electrocute myself! She said she saw Ricky Ricardo get behind his and Lucy's TV and electrocute himself! Lol!!!
Geez my parents use to have me fix the tv. All they all glowing? Jiggle the ones that aren't glowing.... I was like 5 or 6 at the time... Remember going into Radio Shack to get new tubes. I love tube electronics. So fascinating that a tube is the same as a diode or a transistor or... Amazing...
@@rock.doctor That was my grandmother. What I couldn't make her understand is that I knew about this stuff. My dad sold electronic parts from the mid-60's until he got in the insurance business in the late 70's. I was going into Radio Shack as a pre-teen and telling them what parts I needed. My dad would just look at them and tell them I knew what I was talking about. My dream came true when I got to work for RS for a couple of years in the late 90's in Jonesboro, AR. at 01-8194 and 01-8195.
Your grandmother sounds like an older version of some of the women we have today that put a mask on their 1 year old thinking it will protect them. They never let kids do anything because they might get hurt or might break something. Then when the kids grow older they don't even know how to use the stove or heaven forbid do something like install a ceiling fan.
Hi shango from Australia. Never have I seen such a great effort in getting a 'roundie' color TV to such a quality performance to receive such polluted broadcast material. Your commentary is just the elixir to it...
I remember when parking lots were landscaped with shade trees, so it was nothing to stay in the car under a tree while your parents shopped. Roll down the windows, and you were fine. Stores found out that maintaining the landscaping was expensive, so they took it all out, now we have a wasteland of pavement.
No offense, but methinks you're either misremembering or had an experience most didn't. Most places then and now are/were flat paved with no trees. Some put strips with a couple at the end of rows - for decoration, not providing shade. Almost none shaded entire lots. Image searches on the matter pretty well confirm my memory. Cost-cutting is nothing new.
With color, remote control and wooden cabinet this was a tv for rich people! You will have a remote on the digital decoder box so you don't need the old remote. Excellent job!
I'm originally from the Cleveland area---what will the Guardians be guarding, the miles of derelict factories that stand dormant with the demise of the industrial age? But I digress---I was very surprised that the faulty remote unit wreaked such havoc with the set---I never would've guessed that. It turned out great, ready for service
Cleveland should be renamed Lagos. I call my own city "Lagos on the Delaware" and Baltimore is "Lagos on the Chesapeake" and now Cleveland can be "Lagos on the Cuyahoga" There is no #MagicDirt
And you paid an extra $50 to $100 to have that remote box installed in the set. Without it, there were less issues, even if you had to get up and walk 6 feet to change the channel, etc.
This is one of those sets that started showing up in the late 60's and made life extremely difficult for TV tweakers like I was at the time. No more 5 qty 6CB6, no more 7 qty 6AU6, no more 6SN7, 6H6/6AL5, 6K6/6V6. Nope, all the tubes were new types you couldn't get out of any older TV.
Hello from France 🇫🇷 I follow your TH-cam channel from many years now. Remember the sixties in Paris with only 2 black and white public channels. Second public channel start with colors in 1967, third (in color too) in 1972. During this period colors TV sets providing by Philips or others Europeans brands were too much expensive with low quality // USA. When solid state all transistors colors TVs was launched up at mid seventies , color TVs set began to be more common, with very rare remote control anyway. We were so late compared to the USA ! With the rest of Europe too with our SECAM color system 🤬As a teenager I was fascinated by the technological advance of the USA. Today France is the less expensive place with fiber internet and cable providers but I’m still hot with those old US TV set ❤️
Europeans couldn't agree on a standard for color. Half of the continent was running PAL, and the other was running SECAM, with half of the SECAM countries eventually switching over to PAL. We had the NTSC versions of the Phillips K6 and K7 sets here in Canada. They were a technician's nightmare.
The tech I apprenticed under years ago always made us take all the guts out of the old cap cans and stuff the new ones inside to hide them lol. Glad I found this channel and love to watch you work on these old sets.
@@sonsofthunder915 ahh yeah, .. and the Dudes' ship said "NASA" or was that Lisa Simpson and her microscopic world? _The _*_All seeing Eye_*_ knows_ : }
Hi Shango, your videos are GREAT, I'm also fixing stuff like TVs (but modern), PCs, amplifiers, for fun (and friends) but I never tried to fix any tube equip - it does not seems to be much harder / different than solidstate - of course voltages are higher therefore you need to watch and think about what are you going to touch, use isolation transformer, gloves, ... but at the end most failures are same - leaky / open caps / burned resistors, burned tube / transistor / IC / diode - the skill is to be able to find the failed component - thats why I like your videos beacuse you are trying to find the failed component logically instead of "replace them all" - this is much more educational :D Also I like your comments / humor, but I'm a little bit scared about what I see in the news you are showing us - I'm happy I live in europe where the propaganda did not reached US level (yet). Thank you for all your work / videos!
My neighbor had one of these. I recall the day it started smoking and I ran over with a fire extinguisher. It sat in the front yard for 6 hours before they would even touch it haha. Wish I had a picture of the event hahahaha!
Geniaaaaal, para la epoca del TV se ve perfecto, ahora confirmo que estos aparatos duran mucho tiempo y si vale pena y el GASTO repararlos siiiiiiii 👏👍😱😃
I remember the 5GH8 tube had just the opposite effect. If you tapped on a good tube like that it killed the tube. When I was an apprentice in a TV shop I once knocked over the tube caddy in the parking lot. It popped every one of the 5GH8 tubes internally.
Sagging elements in a worn tube from the way it is positioned in the set. I've seen it happen many times with ones mounted horizontally. Smack 'o Rama and they often come back.
The factory Packard Bell Service literature and demo record my PB roundy combo came with indicated that all remotes were dealer installed options so all sets should have that nice jumper plug for eliminating the remote chassis. If you decide you don't want the remote and remote reciever chassis send me a message. I'd pay $60 plus shipping to have it for my packard bell roundy.
Another classic shango repair with just a hint of his wonderful dry sense of humour ( don't hold back bud we are all with you ) , as semi retired tv engineer from over the pond I often have to look up the valve numbers you quote, I wonder why when so many were coming from the same factory did they mark them for one market and then different for another
I seem to recall back in the days when sets like these were commonplace that they were not all that reliable, and the cost of maintaining and repairing them was almost prohibitive -- which is why many people back then actually preferred more simple, dependable B&W sets. Also, color sets weren't all that practical, as there weren't that many TV programs broadcast in color up until about 1968 or so, as I recollect.
Actually the big three networks made the universal transition to color in the 1966 season. Of course color programs existed before then, but most weekly shows were in black & white. I remember the little blurb that would appear for a few seconds before programs would start, proclaiming the show was "in color."
@@Inflec Now that I think of it, this is true, but the overwhelming majority of *local* programming was still in black and white, and most smaller-market TV stations had budgets too tight to afford color equipment in those days. If memory serves, the TV network that eventually became today's PBS (NET) broadcast exclusively in black and white until about early-1969.
@@chetpomeroy1399 - You are correct in all your observations. I remember as a kid a favorite Saturday morning show was time shifted by my local station to Sunday mornings. When I finally got the chance to use my brother's brand new Quasar TV to see it in color, I was crestfallen to see that the station was broadcasting it in black & white. So yes, it took time for some stations to catch up with color broadcasting.
I thought tubes were rather delicate, but I guess smacking them with a slice of plywood doesn't phase them. LOL. Always interesting content, thanks again. Cheers.
The envelopes don't like to be stepped on or dropped but they don't care much past that. Shango has videos smacking them with screwdrivers to remove shorts! Also, they handle overcurrent really well
Plywood has a bit of give to it, plus he was holding it on his hand so some of the hit's energy got dissipated that way. Trying to do that on a piece of steel on the ground with the same force would most likely shatter the glass.
I could actually watch this set. Nice bright color and good geometry. Focus is a little fuzzy but no blooming or pincushion. I don't miss all the X-ray radiation when we used to sit really close and get nagged at. It's a dry heat in Bakersfield 12% humidity much different than 75% humidity... Get Inoculated!
Our Soviet tube TVs have never shown this. They had a muddy picture and an incomprehensible color. And this picture quality appeared when semiconductor models appeared on the market.

We one sick society. Nature has no mercy, life is inherently unfair, and here we go trying to recreate reality in accordance with pink unicorn fantasy. And we’ll fine or imprison anyone who disagrees. Nice. It’s why I like animals so much.
This TV may be full of problems but it is still more beautiful and better made than modern televisions. Not to mention that remote and how it works is so damn cool! I wish they did cool stuff like that now!
The main reason I watch you channel is the running commentary. I find your remarks very amusing. Shango you are 100% right about the propaganda! I don’t know who the fool was in the mask and head cover but I thought his remarks we’re very inappropriate and predictable from a propaganda standpoint. Seems like anyone that is ill these days has COVID. Guess they have to keep those numbers up.🤮 That’s my $0.02 worth!

All contracts with vaccine corporations should be made public. When it comes to the health of citizens and not the interests, they should be publicly available and not protected by trade secrets. Because it is not about trade, but about the health and life of citizens.
Apparently, it's the type of programming that gets *ratings,* which enables TV stations there to charge more for their commercial spots. It's an outdated business model currently on life support. Television going all digital in 2009 was just new pink lipstick on an old, dying pig.
NY and Philly local aren’t much better, it’s been a year and a half since I last tuned in to watch an entire newscast alone on purpose, otherwise I’d be screaming and cursing the entire time.
I found part 2 by searching in the search bar! Yay! This is really fascinating! So, why is it suddenly working? (Violin player) Was it because you removed that unit? Or fixed that vacuum bulb?
unique jokes and insects smoking I love this channel and knowledge about tubes and radios I guess 50s TV s now.. it's too bad in our time TV programming is bit shit
@@shango066 there is an assumption by some viewers that you are a trumpie type asshole, they infer that from some of your comments. me, i think you have just been living in LA too long and need a change.
Your political viewpoints don't make you an asshole. Treating people like crap makes you an asshole. Who cares what other people believe? It's their decision.
No comment on impropaganda or propaganda from me thank you nicely very much (faith versus vaccine - why are they at odds?) . Liked the TV repair, good minimalistic logic applied to show the fault and explain the problems. Maybe this approach could be applied to other parts of life or maybe not.
The main picture seems a little high on the left side (maybe it's the camera angle). But who can argue that Shango being the best @ TV repair? And just as I was about say PROPAGANDA..... he takes the words right out of my mouth.
Vishay HV electrolytic capacitors in my expirience are good, endeed. I know Vishay started as an european company, but nowadays I don't know where they produce their electrolitycs and only reference I've found was (USA) parts supplier listing stating country of origin code AT (Austria). At least their price corresponds correctly to this country :)
Never saw anyone bang a vacuum tube like that, and expect it to work. I was taught that the filaments, and other inner parts of tubes were kind of delicate, that you could drop a tube on the floor, and while the glass may not crack or break,the tube was effectively non functional. I guess this is not the case.
Just don't do it to your 300B. The miniature tubes are happy to get whacked. We used to whack our tube necks with a screwdriver during rejuvenation too. Don't know of any that would fail after a whack, not saying they can't..

Your political viewpoints don't make you an asshole. Treating people like crap makes you an asshole. Who cares what other people believe? It's their decision.
Great picture :)
No comment on impropaganda or propaganda from me thank you nicely very much (faith versus vaccine - why are they at odds?) . Liked the TV repair, good minimalistic logic applied to show the fault and explain the problems. Maybe this approach could be applied to other parts of life or maybe not.
BANG! "That should have been inside the tv" 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀
Also "Political correctness, dumbass"
I definitely have some sort of low-energy problem. Not sure if it's Jay Lo but it's definitely low.
The main picture seems a little high on the left side (maybe it's the camera angle). But who can argue that Shango being the best @ TV repair?
And just as I was about say PROPAGANDA..... he takes the words right out of my mouth.
Great video, the tv is playing great and I agree with your comment on the last part of the video here, they sure are pushing that jab,
Love the TV, hate the media.
Vishay HV electrolytic capacitors in my expirience are good, endeed. I know Vishay started as an european company, but nowadays I don't know where they produce their electrolitycs and only reference I've found was (USA) parts supplier listing stating country of origin code AT (Austria). At least their price corresponds correctly to this country :)
The quaint street scenes at 24:57 look to be Solvang, California.
great work!
The mainstream media never passes up an opportunity to name drop Fentanyl Floyd.
Never saw anyone bang a vacuum tube like that, and expect it to work. I was taught that the filaments, and other inner parts of tubes were kind of delicate, that you could drop a tube on the floor, and while the glass may not crack or break,the tube was effectively non functional. I guess this is not the case.
Just don't do it to your 300B. The miniature tubes are happy to get whacked. We used to whack our tube necks with a screwdriver during rejuvenation too. Don't know of any that would fail after a whack, not saying they can't..
Shango066 - i like your politics you see the world for what it is, good work on the TV.
After fixing the cataract, I bet it'll be another successful score.
He already fixed the cataract. The videos are not in chronological order. Pt3 was 4 weeks ago, Pt 1 was 1 month ago.
@@dougbrowning82 Thanks for the heads up. I did watch those videos now I think about it. Forgot he posted them in reverse order.
my uncle frank who had a fridge full of pall-mall cigarettes never worked a day in his life. Soaked on into those social security checks. Would always say "whatchacalla"
think he left this earth in 1987~ would dissappear into his luxury Packard in his garage to get away from the damned smokers~
