Shango066 made a video of cleaning a TV? What is this, some kind of holiday weekend or something? ;-) By the way for the next spam call you should pretend that you're calling them for assistance with the repair. "Hello sir how are you doing?" "Well, I'm wondering why I'm not getting any color demodulation. I replaced all the tubes, ohmed out all the coils. I think the pots are open. You think that might be it?" "Uhhh..." "Both of them though? But it makes sense, if both of the pots are bad it's not going to demodulate anything". That should be a fun way to waste their time ;-)

Jac Goudsmit - or better yet, ask the telemarketers if they’re having problems with their picture bulb TVs, then ramble on about flyback arcing and low high voltage. Ask them if the damper tube is busted. Or if they see the filaments in the transistors lighting up. 😊 Finally, suggest they EOL the set with fireworks.

I really appreciate you're videos. I have true love of tube TVs. I don't know why, but I do. I really miss the puzzles, trying to find problems on old vintage equipment. Now, I'm an automation electrician / programming. I still get to wow people with my skills sometimes. I want you to know that my youngest daughter enjoys watching your videos, and she sees me work on old radios. I think She'll follow along, when she gets older.

Great picture for one of those sets. Excellent work.These were considered as junk in late 80's TV shop wise as a Black and White TV would have been. We used a Air compressor to clean all the dirt and a soft bristle paint brush. Never water on the components. Thanks Shango!

Finally that horrid "joker" picture (green/purple colour) is gone. Interesting how a chroma-demod fault can cause that kind of symptom, but not all that uncommon. I had a Philips K-11 (1977) chassis with that very problem - another guy reckoned it was a cathode short in the CRT (but a check confirmed all 3 guns were even with strong emission and no shorts - plus the grey scale was correct with the colour turned all the way down - producing a clear B&W picture - upon turning the colour back up, it looked terrible). Replacing the chroma plug-in module and a couple of difference/differential transistors (mainly R-Y and B-Y) on the board fixed the fault, restoring a great colour picture (complete with vibrant greens reds and blues). There was nothing wrong with the tube. Once again, another great video - shango you are the man.

Back in 1972 I had just transferred from Fort Lewis Wa to Fort Bliss Texas with the 3rd Armored Cav, the whole unit moved, I went with the advanced party as my wife was with child and would have been about her due date should I have waited for the main body. We needed a TV when we got down there and decided to get our first color set. So it was off to the Globe Shopping City which was just off base, and we found a wonderful looking little set that looked almost exactly like that except for the name, which I know was not Wards but be damned if I can recall the label, some off breed set or another probably made in Japan back then. Well that little set lasted the rest of my time in the Army being moved by professional moving van some 5 times before we made it back to South Dakota, where my eldest sister, who was on welfare at the time needed a TV since she still had the one that I had in my room when I was a kid, an old black and white set with florescent lights all around the picture tube, at it was florescent color, I never took off the shield. So my wife and I purchased a new color set at the Gambles store in town and I gave her that old set, which had served us in Texas, Virginia, Minnesota, Indiana, and back home to South Dakota. She used that old set till 1997 when we moved back home following my retirement from the PD, at which time I gave her my old CRT TV and purchased my first flat screen some time a bit later. Eventually her daughters got her a nice flat screen but that old no name set lasted from 72 through 97 and was never opened up for repairs. Those old sets lasted for years and years if used steadily I guess. Sis is gone now and her TV is in the hands of strangers who screwed her daughter out of their house, but that's a different story I guess.

Well, like the experts who just recap everything would say, you wouldn't have issues if you just stuck it in the dishwasher as the dishwasher won't bend the pins like the brush will. I am impressed how well that tube came to life, I honestly thought that CRT was fried. And, I don't watch much TV anymore, but I always love your commentary on what is on TV. Reminds me of the MST3k or Beavis and Butt-Head commenting on TV. I wish that were a thing but the copyrights would prevent that sadly from having a whole channel of you just complaining on what is on TV.

Not only does it block spam calls, it also blocks the idiots who call and scream at me because someone spoofed my number.

I'm sure I don't need to tell Shango, but for newbies if you have a valve/tube with low emission and no replacement and you have a basic valve tester (just like a CRT rejuvenator) you can attempt to get a bit more life from a valve by over running the heater for a short period. With a 6.3V heater you can go through the ranges from 12.6V and then the next, (12.6 isn't enough). You can watch the emission - at 12.6 it will rise right up, then the next range for 5 or 10 secs where often it will drop then jump up. Keep an eye out for shorts and don't overdo it. Often a valve can give give normal service for weeks or months. No guarantees though. This of course is so you can order / find a new one without losing use of your radio/tv/amp - and not for passing on to the next guy ))

I miss Wienerschnitzel. Back in the 60's, you could get 10 chili dogs for a dollar, and they were *yummy!* I *still* think Shango needs to take his properly-calibrated Geiger counter and hold it up to the back of that CRT and HV rectifier tubes and find out how much X-radiation is being emitted. I'm sure it would go *way up* if the voltage-regulator circuit were to malfunction.
