Info of My Radio Restoration
National Panasonic T-100D, was a 9-transistor world band radio manufactured in 1966 by the National Panasonic Corporation of Japan at their Matsushita Industrial Complex. It was a 4-band battery powered short wave SW receiver for the high-end of the market. It became popular due to its high quality sound produced by a twin speaker system providing separate bass and treble. In 1966, a Class-B push-pull output stage using a matched pair of germanium transistors 2SB324 was a good as it got and many high-end products of that time had it. The good thing about this design is that the Japanese kept improving the components with better output transformers and speakers; consequently, many products of that period had identical output stages and produced very high quality sound.
Konosuke Matsushita founded National Panasonic in 1918. Starting as a one-man repair shop, it quickly became Japan’s number one manufacturer of electrical and electronic products. In the 1963 issue of Fortune magazine Matsushita Electrical ranked 37th

Great job on the hardware, but again the capacitors need to be replaced and resistors need to be checked. The radio restorations I and many other do here is circuitry and radio alignment. We usually leave the outer case in original state. Great video. Maybe you and I can hook up on a radio, I do the circuitry, you do the case and hardware. 👍👍👍👍👍

@hi-fidude6670 4 жыл бұрын

@@aklankrisz Piss off. A 50 old radio doesnt have a single capacitor that works properly, every single one is way past their lifetime. Japan or not, old caps are shit no matter if from the 60s or 70s or 80s. New ones are built better and last longer. That radio is practically on its last legs. I have 40 year old Japanese very high end amplifier with Nichicon filter capacitors which were likely the best brand at the time. I changed the filter capacitors with new ones and it sounded better, the old ones do not filter the current nearly as well. Leaving filter caps in 40+ year old gear is just asking for more trouble, could ruin the rectifier and transformer sooner or later.

@hi-fidude6670 4 жыл бұрын

@@AldoCugnini Every paper capacitor in any electronic unit is faulty today, every single one have to be replaced. So you can either change them yourself which is quite cheap in a mid 60s radio because there is not that many and the values are tiny. Or you could wait for one of them to really mess up your unit and repair it at a much higher price.

@CSSIandAssociate 4 жыл бұрын

@@aklankrisz Correct not everyone has an ESR meter. However, if you want to work with electronics having one is very useful. I have the Blue ESR tester. It also comes in handy checking batteries as well. With that said I would check them. It is a puzzle if they are off you know that was a contribution to the problem or the whole problem. Now since you are in there and caps are cheap replace them with a good quality cap. I go with Nichicon caps. Caps and most electronics parts are cheap. Just have fun with it. Yes, I would replace them but check the values.

Foi uma verdadeira revolução, lá eu houvia os jogos de praticamente todos os estados do país. Não me considero saudosista, mas já procurei em lojas de antiguidades e não encontrei, mas ainda não desisti.

Nice machine and nice work! I recommend that you use dichloroethane or dichloromethane to repair certain plastic parts. To extend the crack, I would use a hot stapler, which melts a thin metal wire into plastic. Also, for stable operation of the device, I would check the electrolytic capacitors, because they could already dry out and lose capacity (I use an LCR meter to check the details). Good luck with further repairs and restorations!

I restored one of these some time ago. I wasn't my intention to rebuild it but since it arrived smashed in transit I had little choice. Superb radio but most of the old germanium transistors had broken down internally and had to be replaced, parts sourcing was a problem, particularly the battery / s-meter but after a year and a half work and expense (far more than it will ever be worth) it was as good as new.

Try retrobrighting next time to get rid of the yellow discoloration on your plastics so that you won't just resort to using sandpaper and paint. There are tons of methods of retrobrighting on KZfaq, notably the method used by The 8-Bit Guy. Then again, glad that, somehow, you bring otherwise dead and beat-up old electronics back to life.
