I learned about capacitors when I was about 12 years old. The television had been unplugged for an hour but the capacitor held its charge BIG TIME! It shocked the living bejeeses out of me!
You can thank John Borlaug for the transistor sockets. He fought till the end, to keep sockets. They demoted him from National Service manager, to a local FSDM (Field Service District Manager) and that's when I got to work with him.
It’s an issue with unleaded solder as well. Industry is trying to get everyone to use lead free solder, but they’ve found unleaded solder joints grow whiskers over time on space satellites. That and lead free solder joints look terrible in general.
I still have a 13" color Panasonic with remote stored away. Purchased late 80's? It was plugged in a quality surge protector / line conditioner. At 10 years, I was like "Cool, still holding up." At 15 years I am like, "Man this thing is still going." At 17 to 20 years I am literally thinking, "When is this thing going to die?" I finally retired it in 2007 when my brother surprised me with a 27" 720P Vizio. It is plugged into the same surge protector (from the late '80's as well!), which has been plugged into a quality UPS unit since 2012. Yes, the Vizio still works. The Panasonic still in perfect working order when I put it away.
These TV sets were a lot of fun to fix despite the headaches. Horizontal and vertical sync problems were the worst. Thank goodness for those SAM schematic diagrams.
Hey it's not just Americans with their cup holders, us Aussies do it too! My Ford Territory/Explorer is full of cup holders. All four doors have them, front centre console, arm rest in the middle centre second row seats & two in the boot for the third row seats as mine is a 7 seater. They do come in handy when you have four kids. LOL
shango066 Bad thing about TV, is your paying for commercials technically! Ugh. Bad enough that DirecTV, Dishnetwork, Cable programming costs assrape you, but you get the required added benefit of commercials
Dave WM I wish we had more plug in transistors,and when he was looking up the cross reference I thought it would either be a 2n2907 or a 2n2222 dam I’m good! I’m really happy that I found these videos !!!!!
Plug-in anything is sort of a mixed blessing. It's worth it if you expect the part to fail often, but the connections themselves are one more thing to go bad. Once silicon transistors were perfected, a decent soldering job was probably preferable.
these videos are so informative about how things use to be done, i love seeing old tech, vs new tech and i think some of the old tech was built so much better than alot of this new stuff, so thank you for showing us old tv repair
It's a guard to remind about high voltage. Used to work at Sylvania tv tube factory. And I'll let you know. you don't "want to touch that belly button or feed line. Nasty high volts. So if you get a shield. That shows some body cares. SGT williams retired.
Great repair, nice NOS / TV, programming sux...except Scooby & Golden Girls! This is why I don't watch much TV, but watch a lot of YT channels like yours, its educationally fun! :) The Aero Cart looks like a kitchen sink on wheels! And I doubt pushing snow will be a walk in the park!
I just bought a 1965 packard bell stereo console but I can't think of a good reason to get a crt because they are heavy and bulky so ill definitely stick to modern flat-screen 4k sets but home audio is a different story as my console can have Bluetooth added or a tv to the tape input. I also have a 5.1 system in my room
I had no idea that vacuum tubes were still being used in 1969. When I was a kid in the early 60's my dad sold televisions and he had a tube tester. I thought it was a big deal to test the tubes customers brought in. I still have the tube tester. It's a nice memory.
Oh yeah. Many American TV models still had a lot of vacuum tubes in them in the early 1980s. American TV manufacturers were way behind the times compared to Asia at the time. They didn't want to spend money to refit factories for new designs, & risk accidentally making an unreliable model. In those days we expected a TV to last 12-16 years. That's one of the reasons American companies never made a VCR. American VCRs were rebranded ones from Asia. Of course you know, the picture tube is also a vacuum tube. Picture Tube TVs & computer monitors were still sold well after the turn of the cenrury.
Sylvania boasted the best color picture in the late '60s - early '70s, everyone thought it was because of their CRT's, but in truth, they probably over-modulated the chroma section, at the determent of the chroma demod section(s). Silo Electronics stores sold a buttload of both Sylvania and Philco-Ford TV sets, so many that most independent service techs carried at least a dozen GE-20 transistors with them, because of the problem which you just encountered (on the Sylvania's), and to repair a weak tone burst oscillator section in the Philco sets. I remember seeing so many of those multi-potentiometer enclosures with one or two sections clipped and isolated, and a Centralab, CTS, or Ohmite replacement piggybacked in its place. I'm wondering if that "whisker" thing may have been the actual culprit, only back then the defect wasn't evident without magnification?? A very nice set, and nice repair, by the way!!
WRONG.. THE SUPER SETS WERE FROM THE LATE 70'S AND THE BETTER PICTURE, WAS BECAUSE THE CRT'S WERE USING A BLACK MATRIX AROUND THE DOTS... ALSO, ON THE LATER SETS, 30 KV WAS USED ON THE SECOND ANODE
@@GBS1043 It was red phosphor, in the 1960's/early '70s, which gave Sylvania the edge; I always purchased new Sylvania 21FJ/25AP22's for replacement CRT's , for two primary reasons: №1. Red Phosphor made for better color, especially during live sporting events. №2. They held focus, and resisted 'blooming'. Rauland didn't even get close until the Chromacolor safety cap problems cranked up in 1975, when many independents part-timed it at Zenith dealers, and noticed the higher design and construction standards.
Good job! Ain't nothing in my cup holder cup but black coffee. A wheelbarrow, wagon , with a cup holder, all the way from China, and you can sit on it too. What's next?
Good grayscale, & color not right, & liked how you zoomed right in on the culprit. Good to know that Sylvania sets may = tin whiskers. Must be the electroplating or something. Looks nice now. Nothing like a new CRT.
Awesome video and channel! I have watched many of your vids. Such a wide range of electronic stuff you know about. Those little dendrites were causing problems in my Hammond organ. Service manual said to use HV from the B+ supply to burn them off. I managed to cure them with only a 9v wall wort.
im impressed by the effort you put into tuning this 50 year old CRT...i miss the old school tech and it brings back loads of great memories, but all the adjustments in the world cant polish a 50 year old turd lol...Flat panels are just better...i bet that old beast draws some juice from the wall socket as well :0)
Think about the sound on this old and little TV is better than many 75" TV today! Crappie TV we have today, I remember my old 28" Bang & Olufsen TV, it was the best sound ever, the sound was better than most stereo are today.
Ohh... You didn't replace "both" transistors? I didn't realize that! I'm at 30:47. I'll see how this all plays out. Extremely interesting video. Man, I just gotta say; what a powerful CRT! The end result was worth the wait. Nice set. Yeah the programming sux. I stopped watching TV in 1999. I'll use one of my Blonder Tongue Agile Video Modulators to get the programming that I want to watch. Forget the other new B.S.!
You know as far as colour reproduction and black levels go, i doubt there will ever be any other screen technology that beats a good CRT, i had a BUSH 22" tube set in 1991, to this day i havent found any tv that beats it for picture quality. OLED is too fragile they fade very quickly, plasma suffers from severe burn in very easily, and LCD black levels and colour are both HORRID.
QLED? Nano Cell? LED? No one has plasma since 2005 and was horrible. LCD was the successful replacement for CRTs and OLED is hardly Fragile. and the Frame and Serif TVs
Also, look at the carbon resistors, in the voltage divider, for the transistor power supply. If they change value (lower), too much voltage is applied to the transistors, causing them to fail
Similar phenomenon causes the capacitor plague that has killed electronics all over the place since 2002. I done a bit of research on it and it used to be prolific in the early days, they limited it on circut boards with the use of lead solder which got banned in europe, leading to the return of whiskers !! Towards the end of the 20th century there were a lot of dodgy capacitor and component making houses around and they used sub standard materials in dialectrics of capacitors etc, the metal in the cap migrated and caused shorts!
It looks like the pot assemblies were made by cTs, there were the same ones who made the push on and push off power switches in Philco Predictas, which were also crap. No, the small non polarized caps very seldom cause troubles in TVs and radios built after the mid 1960s, unless they are high voltage jobs like Douglas found in his 1973 Zenith's Horizontal output circuit, but those would be getting hammered anyhow.
Those little hairs look like crystalline growth of some sort I am sure some sort of inhibitor should take care of those, an alkaline or acid formula spray to stop them from growing. clearly a chemical reaction is taking place. Just a tip when looking for greens try the gardening channel :P
But the aerocart is just 4 easy payments of 39.95! That a deal to, well, someone gullible to buy that overpriced cheap looking POS. Great repair, was well worth watching. Nice Sylvania set.
Interesting video, what a poor quality metal. The tubes are showroom fresh too, some not even getter triggered. 10% R's too. That is a fine TV after all the adjustments. Your commentary is brilliant.
It's like I said about the HDTV fiasco of a few years back, that they were forcing HD down everyone's throat even though there was no longer anything worth watching.
The blue drive/screen is weak which is why you can't achieve a blk/wht raster... If you have a CRT restorer, it may just need to have the cathodes cleaned, as you may know a CRT rejuvenater will take the film off the cathodes which sitting for yrs idle and not being used will cause the guns to oxidize, hence putting the restorer on it. If there is nothing else causing the problem in the chassis circuitry.
I have a feeling it could be some sort of test point... I mean I can't think of absolutely anything else that would make sense to have a resistor with an unconnected end like that...
what do the whiskers do to the set. I deal with carbon whiskers on flame rods and spark plugs in industrial combustion systems, but this appliers to be growing on the surface on the metal. do the whiskers shed and cause trouble with the pots?
They cause short circuits, many times intermittent making the problems they cause very hard to track down if you are not in the know about this phenomenon.
What i cant understand is blue and green must be working to some extent because white shows perfect, without blue or green white wouldnt work, at first i was blaming the input signal box, but yea those damn transistors are a pain in the ass, with time taken to do a full picture setup properly, this television will be outstanding in picture quality.
I learned about capacitors when I was about 12 years old. The television had been unplugged for an hour but the capacitor held its charge BIG TIME! It shocked the living bejeeses out of me!

Gotta love them old tube sets. I love the smell of a burnt resistor in the morning.
10 out of 10 for quality with this one Shango.great to see an NOS tv and the work needed to get it upto speed

its nice that they put those convergence pots on the back like that... so electro shock friendly

Learn something new from you every day and get a bunch of laughs in too. Great video.
That has an awsome picture for not being used. Still even with certain colors working still has great picture.
The Backpackers promo kinda makes me want to watch the series. Only problem is that it ran from 2013-2015. Never even noticed it back then.
You repaired this nice old era TV to watch finaly these crazy advertisement ...:)
Never seen tin whiskers myself, but I've read some papers on them. Fascinating stuff.
"My brain was fuzzy," like a piece of stamped vintage tin that had sprouted zillions of metallic whiskers.
what was the gimmick for ? was there a purpose for the resistor to have one leg unsoldred ? Thanks ... GREAT videos

Finding a NOS TV from 50 years ago is one thing, but if it came with a deluxe flux capacitor, you have something there....

What causes "whiskering"? I've never heard of it until now.

Yes. I'd like to know that too.

Came for the TV, stayed for the hilarious ad commentary.
Beautiful TV 😇❤❤❤❤
NOS FTW
Hi there, thanks for this great video 👍 Could You please tell me how You know it was made in 1969 ? 📺 THANKS ❗
Could the cover have become magnetized in the factory and attracted metallic shavings or airborne particles?
Tony T. They're "tin whiskers", it's a property of the metal tin itself. A metal that grows whiskers
I've had quite a few CTS pots and never seen tin whiskers on them. But then all of them I've come across came out of test equipment.
what do the whiskers do to the set. I deal with carbon whiskers on flame rods and spark plugs in industrial combustion systems, but this appliers to be growing on the surface on the metal. do the whiskers shed and cause trouble with the pots?
They cause short circuits, many times intermittent making the problems they cause very hard to track down if you are not in the know about this phenomenon.
