    As said already: Shango's vids do not saturate or burn out. The projects are interesting. The troubleshooting and resurrection procedures are hands-on and practical. Technical explanations are easy to understand. The narration is sublime. Voice and intonation as well. Just the right mix of sarcasm and cynicism shining through. I love it.
    What burns me out before I even start watching it is 1hour+ vids like "restoration of this-and-that, part 5 of 13". I'm glad that Shango doesn't do that. Resurrection rules!
    Please keep it coming, the more the better. Keep up the self-invented technical terms like squoingyboingler and the occasional conversations with tele-marketeers that can only be properly quoted by using the cyrillic alphabet. The way you are 'politically correct' is just perfect. It cracks me up every time. You even manage to make RadioTvPhonoNut's videos more entertaining.
    So, keep on going, until your living state permits it. You're doing great!
    Thank you.

      Agree! if I see part x of 50 and they are an hour long each then it is usually some clueless idiot chasing their tale for hours because they didn't plug something in or know what they were doing.. Carlson's Lab can do a massive restore of some complex stuff to above factory standards in a couple of hours and his videos are aimed at everyone so explanation heavy, no need for several hours per part into double digit episodes unless your restoring a space shuttle. I enjoy the resurrection series as it is based on knowledge, finding out whats not working and doing the bare minimum to make it work, throw in some Shango humor and winning formula right there.

  • @Xplasma1
    @Xplasma1 Před 4 lety +20

    Here's the thing though Shango. Every one of these old TV's is a piece of history, that you are documenting. To even know these TV's existed at all is amazing enough, but to see them working again is above and beyond the call of duty. That's also an answer to your question of "Why am I recording this in 4K?" Why is because you are documenting not just a TV screen, but the whole TV, its condition, and anything else of interest that might happen.

  • @vancouverman4313
    @vancouverman4313 Před 4 lety +5

    An electronics instructor of mine in college used to tell us that the most important piece of test equipment in your tool kit was between your ears. Shango is a perfect example of someone who uses that piece of test equipment before he uses any other. Unless the technician analyzes the problem and understands the underlying workings of a piece of electronic equipment that's being worked on, all the fancy test gadgets aren't going to help him one iota.

Also you are right, no one isn’t taking it serious either, we still have people playing golf on the weekends & tennis. Most of our non essential businesses have closed. Dan, you are sexy with or without the gloves anyway.

    Back in, I believe it was 1978 I had just got out of the US Army, and moved home to resume my police career. We had a Gambles store in town where we purchased a water bed, and a living room set. We still have the end tables, but the couch, love seat and chairs were sold to a fellow police officer in the mid 1980's. He is gone now, leaving this world last 4th of July. Sad to see him go, he was a great friend. Incidentally I sold my '69 Cadillac to the owner of the store, he loved the old car, and I was sad to see it go but that 472 cubic inch engine just wanted more gas then I was willing to put in her.

    hey creator and viewers you diffidently have my attention. The top quality content, maybe its me. it makes me feel think of my fine young memory's or are you my lost twin. when i view your videos i say to myself ,self why did you trash all them old electronics you loved so much. many years ago my math teacher gave me her black and white zenith tone bar remote set. it was a score it had a good CRT. Most finds in the old days were completely worn out . I really learned the hard way back then. when i got my first meter it was a treat indeed. to make a long story short. i was not a very good boy i didn't clean my room as i should. But any how my mother cleaned my room and like you i kept the back off the zenith. she push it hard up close to the wall and broke the CRT. I was so upset it was my pride and joy. i fix that think up swell and i only had a meter and a light bulb. No SAMS no ctr checked no tube tester if fact i had to walk to the drug store to test my tubes on a old mercury unit. I worn that sucker out indeed. so many good memory's! i just a few years ago i trashed a bran new not rebuilt RCA roundly it was purchased before they went buy buy . and i recently just found your CZcams page and still kicking my self for the trashed that CRT. I will never get bored with your content or humor. i sure wish i could find some old sets here on the east coast USA. but by now if i horded them old electronics i would have to own a Amazon warehouse to keep them all.

    These are very educational. I recently acquired a philco 50-T1400 and am interested in making it work again; there doesn't seem to be a lot of info on that model

    It was therapeutic to see you actually use a vacuum before energizing the vacuum tubes.

    shango)66 I love hearing your commentary on current events, politics, and recently the pandemic.
    And you should leave the mike gain all the way up. It's interesting to hear the background noises as well as the radio stations in your area.
    I like this new "mod" you did to this TV. it does make a good FM radio.

    There's a point where depreciation becomes decomposition. A point that set reached, before most of us were born.

    Sangamo Electric was named for the Sangamon River in Illinois. SAN-ga-mon, hence SAN-ga-mo...

    I just picked up a 1950 cabinet version of this tv. Same chassis it looks like. I have the same burnt up large brown resistors that have turned white, one of them is completely melted down. I can't find any info on this chassis anywhere. I've found a few manuals for other models that are similar but nothing close enough. Do you know the resistor values of the larger brown wire wound flat resistors? There's 2 on the focus potentiometer and 2 in the middle of the chassis (the one that has turned white)? Or where I could find a wiring diagram for this model?

    Damn, when we cleaned out my brothers barn after he died of cancer, there was one of these sitting in the back of the old hay loft. Almost picked it up and took it home.
    It looked in good condition, dusty as hell, but had been under a good roof and kept dry. I bet its still there, as the new owners wouldn't even know what it is. Buts its far away, and
    I never get there anymore.
