Advertising Revenue for this video goes to the NFL, I'm so sure they appreciate my effort and your time. Also a huge shout-out to Justin Timberlake for providing search deep empowering content to demonstrate this beautiful vintage television to its full potential.

jesus shango that toddler in the hot car and the tide pods got me. Keep doing what you do man, I love it.

Never watch nfl because never saw the point in grown men fighting to get a ball between two sticks in a field. Iam however addicted to your channel and your tallent is incredible. Ask yourself the question. What have i learned, or how better is my life after watching nfl game? Answer, its not and in fact you are monetary poorer. Watch shango66 and you have learned something, a skill that could enrich your life, save you money make you of positive worth to society. Give me shango 66 any day over a boring childish nfl ball game.

Honestly Shango, I fix stuff for a living like you do, and I think these repairs you do (and self criticize) are the most amazing because it shows how completely you understand the system and how it works.

Beautiful old set. A TV made today would not even power on after being subjected to the abuse that one took.

GOD DAMN IT!!! half an hour of repair, and it turns out to be a Tide ad. Dang it!

the tidepods and the pepsi were fitting perfectly in the scene 👌👌

Who would have ever thought that you'd see the Super Bowl playing on a 1960's GE TV that was left for dead decades ago in the desert? Your clever hacks to get it working again were brilliant!

These videos are exactly why I love Shango's videos. Truly a master, and when those tide pods came on, and Crystal Pepsi, I lost it laughing. It's the little attention to detail that gets me.

Tubesets rule, amazing that this heavily weather abused/flooded out, rusted set got resurrected and working. Pity you cremated the orange tuner subbber device. Enjoyed every minute of this video. keep up the great work. Brilliant patch up on that flyback TX.

Mmmmm. Crusty this television is... Great video Shango. I likey watching you make working TVs from literal dust.

Dear Shango066, You are the most amazing person that I have ever seen getting these tV's working again, very nice job.

Shango...you are unbelievable. That TV was a mess and you still got screen on it...I knew you would the minute I saw a bit of scan. Very cool.

picture is better than most of the tvs I had growing up

I like the Simpson meter... classic look. Another great repair too.

Wow, I'm astounded this was even recoverable.

shango love yours way that you diagnostics and repair stuff. its interesting to see you fix in other form stuff.

"Baked like a toddler in a hot car" 😂 hot tot

As the old saying goes, "One man's garbage is another man's treasure."

Brilliant. Thank you for putting so much effort into a mountain stream washed bit of vintage disposable technology

Hi shango, found the channel a month or so ago and just wanted to say that you are pretty amazing to watch, a bit scary, but still amazing. Please keep up these great videos. See-ya...

Clever application of the blonder tongue modulator IF output. I like the touch with the product placement. Great videos, this is one of my favorite channels. Keep up the good work!

So Cool! We had a 1960 G.E. Portable that replaced a1951 Magnavox with a dead picture tube. That G.E. was tube tech top to bottom and we got twenty two rears use out of it. It was my window on the world ! Patent 3190554 .

Combination TV and Easy-Bake oven.

No vacuum bulbs were sacrificed in the making of this video

nice to see this working! love the old compactrons. you got me with the tide pods

I bought one of these in July 1965 in a store. It worked for about 5 years. The tuner quit working and it went in a dipsy dumpster.

Working wonders for our entertainment daily for we, the shut in Americans who love old electrical crap! Thanks a Million, another hour wiled away, and today, nothing new! Just great old stuff!

Amazing you can take a 52 year old set that has been in the weather for god knows how long and it can be made to work. Try that with anything modern.

Shango, you are amazing.

My man knows all about KZfaq

great video as always you did it again and you always do a great job thank you for sharing this

Great to have a Shango video. Appreciate the upload.

My first solid state 19" Sears TV circa 1974 had a power supply draw the louder the audio was...picture would shrink just like this GE does when volume turned up....it was just bad or cheap circuit design. I think when this GE set has the audio fixed it will not have to be turned up as much thus not really noticing the picture is being shrunk. That said I bet even after audio is fixed picture will still shrink when turned all the way up. Pounding disco music shows were fun to watch the picture shrink with the pulse of the beat!

I love all the police sirens in the background

Those Tide pods lol 😂

Helarious, better than binge watching Plan 9 from Outerspace.

Perfect monitor to play fallout.

craving that pepsi crystal! not found anymore in quebec province :P

Good work shango. I thought it was gone to hell.

I bouhgt one of these back in 1965 which was in a blue case. It worked for about five years and then the tuner died and it was well put in the trash. It cost around $95 and was bought in a drugstore if I remember right.

oh new shango066 vid and wow! i'd forgotten about that set and the others as i was thinking about the philco ford (not! just been a while since we've seen anything from that place on here)

Vert. hight & Lin. control failure was sort of a common problems on these and similar tube sets back then, these were the cheapest of the cheap back then, fixed a lot of them Admiral made very similar sets too.

I know nothing of electronics and didn’t understand 99% of what you were talking about but this was quite an interesting watch 👍⚡️⚡️⚡️

Another good vintage tube product resurrection video. I recall you said in a previous video about the GE "these things usually just work" and sure enough, this does, after a bit of perseverance. The HV drop causing picture shrinkage with increased audio is because the TV does NOT like Justin TImberlake with his Hando "Romper Stomper" look. I must admit before I saw this video I'd never heard of Tide pods. They sound like a suppository.

What a really neat and informative video! Great job!

This TV is the best earraper of all!!!

Taking nothing away from Mr. Timberlake-- this is the best way to enjoy such a solid performance! Nice.

I was on a WestJet flight during the Super Bowl, and almost every seatback monitor with live satellite TV was tuned to the Super Bowl for the entire flight. When the airplane landed, the flight attendants announced they would leave the TV going for the last few minutes of the game. This was one of the few times I didn't see passengers rush for the door when an airplane landed.

OOH! I LOVE snacking on Tide Pods! Watch out for that heartburn though, but some hot wings will do that anyway...

Ahh lets watch some sports with a refreshing bowl of tide pods and some pepsi coke!

I think he just pressed the recently used words button for the description!

Thank you for the latest video!

Blows my mind how an old TV can be that abused from weather etc and still function. Bet a modern tv would be toast

Another remarkable repair. I wonder how many saw the superbowl in black and white? As for Tide I can't stand the stuff. It takes 2 washes to get that artificial chemical perfume smell off your clothes.

You are a genius!!! I love your video!!!

Another fun video guy, thank you for posting it!

This was the best Timberfake ever sounded. Good work!

YOU ARE A GENIUS !!!!!

I bought a very similar set at Woolworth's back in the '60s. The TV costs $99.99 plus sales tax but the store's cash register could not ring sales higher than $99.99 so the cashier had to ring up the sale as $9.99 ten times, then add the sales tax. I still have the TV but I have no idea if it works.

The GE lives another day!

Pure gold....

This chassis looks like one from a B&W Admiral set I took apart years ago; it had compactrons as well. Probably a close sister to your chassis.

Love the tide pods. Great video

pretty amazing how 9 tubes could do so much, nice save on the fly.

I loves this videos, thanks

Another miracle resurrection by Shango of The Desert.

crystal pepsi AND tide pods_ oh man i missed a good party

In late 60s there was a GE television manufactured and sold here in Brazil which is basically the same, excluding the UHF tuner. Sorry that I don't have mine anymore, the CRT was so weak that it didn't produce an image and I throw it away, it was 20 years ago. :(

Miracle 33GY7 horizontal output tube, not affected by the tide pod challenge. I hope you don't mind me using your "baked like a toddler" line.

another resurrection.. you're the Zombie-TV-King. BTW, those purple-mint-pods go well with crystal pepsi

Beau travail 👍👍👍👍👍

What, no complete teardown and reassembly using NOS period-correct date-coded parts? But seriously, I"m amazed at the picture quality, especially with the water damage. I'd call that one a win.

Gee, five years less in the desert and it would probably work as good as new!

Shango066 can make just about anything work !

Super shango066 :-) old TV magic Fantastic!

baked like a toddler in a hot car! hahaha love your darkness.

Omg, tide pods in a bowl. enjoy the game. 🏈

Love it!!!! You going to eat all those tide pods? Bahaha

It sounds like your running a tea kettle. Haha

It use goes to show how electrically rugged these old tube sets were; try putting a modern flat-screen set in the same conditions and you’ll be lucky if it doesn’t explode in a giant fireball! (sort of like the EOL videos on this channel) 😎

GREAT JOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

im so hungry for a tide pod and a pepsi now...

Shango is a wizard.

Hilarious bro, I almost spit my tidepod across the room.

Shangoo, you should allow translations on your vids! Great work!

Just. Awesome.

"Baked like a toddler in a hot car" Comedy gold lol.

Nice repair, I wish TV Repairman's where still a thing so as News paper delivery with milk.

You should get a neutral density filter for your camera or just find a way to get one mounted to it. A non polarized darkening filter should reasonably fix your issues with blanking, it'll result in a lower shutter speed and more blur in quick movements but it'd be a nice compromise so it's easy to see the screens.

Seems to be a low hour set left to die, sad. Incredible it came to life and didnt get a short in the line transformer.

ROFL you are the man.

That's a rather nice vintage meter; don't think I'd want to destroy that.

very similar cabinet (the back in particular) to the British KB (Kolster-Brandes) KV003 "featherlite" dual standard (405 VHF/625 UHF) portable, also from around '65, big difference is the KB was all 'hard wired' chassis, no pcb, and we didnt have 'compactrons', so all 'normal' B9A valves/tubes (some were dual section such as triode pentodes or double triodes)

Shango You'r Something Else

When you said shorted audio opt I was thinking plate to grid coupling cap

I had a B&W GE as a kid with good UHF and VHF reception; remember Kennedy funeral

lol love it mate

TIDE PODS, you're Killing me, L-O-L !

we got a screamer!!!!!
