I want to attempt aligning a FM set the correct way.  Does anyone have a 
FM signal generator that I could borrow?

Thanks,
Bill

Someone who grew up in the area remembers only a basement remnant of a large house or mansion in the 1960's that contained two fountains with decorative fish adorning them. Please excuse the lack of detail, but that was all she remembered about this site. She had contacted the local historical society, but they could not help her.

My research identified the real maker and who it was ostensibly made for. However, I can find nothing about a "WOR." I have seen stencil horns (Made by a major manufacturer to order for third party sellers), sold by Dorn & Kirschner, a Newark musical instrument dealer that those of us of a certain age remember as being the source of all things musical when we were in grade school. I've seen mouthpieces for NEMC, the National Educational Music Company, founded in Newark and at one time the largest band instrument rental company in the country.

> That said, from various pieces of information, I believe this WOR sax was made for the in-house orchestra of WOR-AM in the 20s or at the latest, the 1930s. The only proof I have (and it's really conjecture) is that the WOR stencil is made up of lightning bolts with additional lightning bolts surrounding the word "WOR." That lightning bolt font is very similar to the font used by RKO Radio Pictures from 1929-1936 in their opening screen logo. This is the same time period as the sax itself and would seem to fit with the period of WOR's in-house orchestra.

As I mentioned previously, Garrison Keillor and the Prairie Home 
Companion radio show will be at the Auditorium in Ocean Grove on 
Saturday August 1st.  The show is at 8 PM and tickets are $60 or $65 per 
person.  We are working on getting a block of seats for NJARC @ $65 ea.  
So far I have 10 requests for tickets.  Let me know if there is any 
additional interest so we can lock down this block.  I would like to 
finalize this within a week or 10 days.  Parking in Ocean Grove in the 
summer is impossible so I am also investigating using a bus from InfoAge 
parking.

Dear Bob,

Thanks for the link to the Kutztown video.  I enjoyed watching it and am
sorry I missed the show.  I probably would have bought that Andrea
television. Hadn't heard of the Andrea brand before. 

Thanks again,

Thank you Mike! and Mike!

                        I did not know the connection between FADA and
ANDREA. As a young lad, my Grandmother had a FADA television that I would
watch Soupy Sales, and Sergeant Joe Bolton and the Three Stooges. Geez...
what did I have for breakfast lol!

Thanks for the info!

 Bob

You may not have heard of Andrea, although it is surprising if you are a

Dear Bob,

Thanks for the link to the Kutztown video.  I enjoyed watching it and am
sorry I missed the show.  I probably would have bought that Andrea
television. Hadn't heard of the Andrea brand before. 

Thanks again,

Michael Stein

REMINDER our annual AWA Spring Luncheon Meet at Peddlers Village Cock and Bull restaurant in Lahaska, PA is Thursday May 21 at 11:30 AM !!!!!

This year we will be doing something different. John, K2TQN has agreed to give a talk during our lunch and we will be in an upstairs meeting room. There is an elevator to the second floor. We will still do the same meet and greet in the parking lot before and after weather permitting.

I am attaching a PDF file which describes the subject of the talk that John will be giving.

We promised at least 20 for the room so I would like to see as big a turnout as possible for our luncheon this year. Spouses and guests are always welcome.

If you have not already responded yea or nay please pop me an email. The list I currently have is:

W3GMS   - 1
WA2TWS - 1

This is a cut and a paste from the hackaday site


Reading Resistors With OpenCV
																				by Brian Benchoff
																			
																		
																	
																
																
																																			Here's
 a tip from a wizened engineer I've heard several times. If you're 
poking around a circuit that has failed, look at the resistor color 
codes. Sometimes, if a resistor overheats, the color code bands will 
change color - orange to brown, blue to black, and so forth. If you know
 your preferred numbers for resistors, you might find a resistor with a 
value that isn't made. This is where the circuit was overheating, and 
you're probably very close to discovering the problem.
The
 problem with this technique is that you have to look at and decode all 
the resistors. If automation and computer vision is more your thing, 
[Parth] made an Android app that will automatically tell you the value of a resistor by pointing a camera at it.
The code
 uses OpenCV to scan a small line of pixels in the middle of the screen.
 Colors are extracted from this, and the value of the resistor is 
displayed on the screen. 


The app is available for free on the Google Play store.

Have you actually found the app, especially for Android?
All I see is computer geek BS like this:

Hi Al,
I installed it on my android phone.  Just access the link via your cell to download, it will prompt you to buy it, bypass that prompt  and install.  Perhaps the link doesn't work since I cut and pasted it.  I will forward you the email from hackaday.  
I tired the app out and it doesn't work on blue resistors, and you have to have a very hand when scanning the resistor, I had to pivot the cell on a table to get it steady enough to get a good reading.  I'm sure they will improve on it soon.

Tom

That app reminds me of a telegraph key item which is a key mounted to a candlestick phone. You dial someone up and use the key. Why one wouldn't speak the message I can't imagine ..  Looking at the color bands on the resistor is kind of simple, no???  And likely you will only need to assess the first two color bands anyway ?? And if it looks burnt it probably is!!

Subject: [NJARC] Help request to identify a Radio
Message-ID: <7701e.458d4308.428d285a@aol.com>

I'm trying to find some information, schematic if possible, for a Knight  
Tombstone Radio.  So far, I found color photo evidence of the radio at  the 
Allied Radio site http://www.alliedcatalogs.com/catalogs/1936/  on page 118, 
but that's about it.  I do know that Knight was a name used by  Allied Radio 
and possibly built by Pacific Radio.  I also found a related  chassis that 
appears to be similar in a photo.  The label in the  cabinet was damaged, so 
any information from that is useless.  I cannot  find anything in Riders or 
Beitman's.
 
Here is what I know, 
Name on Dial  -  Knight
Tubes    (5)    80, 75, 42, 6D6,  6A7.
Bands:    3
Serial:    25-7008
Model from internet source:   H9801
Possible related  model:        9701H    
Manufactured  year:                1936
 
The Allied Radio site doesn't all copying or printing.  At least you  can 
see what I am talking about.  Does anyone have any more information on  this 
radio?
 
Thanks in advance.

Hi Joe,
I built several Knight kits back in the mid 60s and still have a few.
Allied Knight never published the technical information for any of their 
products, so you won't find a schematic too easily.
The best shot you have is to create an eBay search for the assembly manual 
for this unit and add it to your watch list.
The assembly manual will include the schematic as well as the assembly 
instructions.

Good luck with it...

73,
Chuck

Check out the schematic for a Pacific Radio, model 321-36.  It's Rider 
8-9.  According to a radio directory I have, 25 preceding the serial 
number means it was manufactured by the Pacific Radio Corp.  It's 
location is listed as Los Angeles and Chicago, so I don't know if it's 
the same company or two separate ones.

Message-ID: <555E607B.1080308@optonline.net>

I'm repairing (or attempting) to repair a Zenith Cobra-Matic turntable 
that's part of a ca. 1959 Zenith AM/FM/Phono console.

The manual reject doesn't work, nor will it shut down at the end of the 
record.

Looking at the attached photo, The problem is obviously the large gear 
(green) not rotating to engage the platter gear (blue).

When the selector is moved to the Reject position, rod (yellow) moves 
and pushes against bar (red).

Likewise, when the arm reaches the end of the record, the other end of 
bar (white) also engages bar (red).

None of theses actions has any effect on gear (green).

If I manually rotate large gear (green) to engage the platter gear 
(blue) all works according to Hoyle.

The problem seems to be with the (red) bar.

I did notice that the release in the spindle will not retracr to drop 
the record when I manually activate the mechanism, but I'm hoping that 
will be "small potatoes" after I figure out the main problem.

I've searched but cannot find any literature on the mechanism.  Can 
anyone (Phil??) help?

Thanks,
Bill

Thanks Aaron,
 
    BINGO!!!  What a find. Between the two, I  think these will get me 
there.  Now, all I have to do is to trace the  wiring against the schematic(s).  
I do notice the tone control on the  321-37.  My radio doesn't have this.  
    When I get the time to follow the wiring, I'll let  you know so we can 
match the radio to the schematic.
 
Thanks again.
Joe

    I seem to keep hitting the wall.  I found  the listing for 321-36 in 
the Rider Index.  The problem is that in  neither my CD set or the on-line

Sounds like a binding trip pawl. It usually requires taking the sliding mech apart to get to the trip pawl which is underneath the toothed gear. Need to remove the old pub and put in fresh lib. Trip pawl must move freely to start the change cycle.

Auto correct at its best or worst. The sentence should have read, Need to

Is there anyone left in N.J. who still repairs the older-style turntables? That would be good to know. My personal success rate with turntable repairs currently stands at 0.0%.

Thanks Phil and everyone else for your responses.

I figured it would be a lubrication issue, but everything seem to be 
moving freely.  I pretty much ruled out anything broken, as there's not 
one piece of plastic, unlike other "modern day" turntable that I've 
seen.   It does look like there may have been an attempted repair, as 
there is an over abundance of oil on everything.  I'm pretty good with 
mechanical repairs, having been a technician for Sony Superscope for 
about 6 years "way back" working exclusively on tape recorders, and 
repaired teletype machines in the army and while at AT&T.  Just thought 
this might be a common fault with this turntable.  Now...what's the 
difference between a pawl and a bellcrank...??

(If I get frustrated I could always go to the "pub" for a few and find a 
"lib", but why??)

Probably won't get back to it for a few days, spending allot of time 
with my wife after some surgery.  I'll post my progress.

Thanks again, Bill

Subject: [NJARC] Available ates BC-1T 1KW Broadcast Transmitter:
Message-ID: <E4BC844F48A544AAB2DFAA13D2F5B50D@JoeCroPC>

Hello all NJARC Members,
                                      I thought I'd offer it here before I went elsewhere in case anybody was interested. I'll be glad to work with anyone or group, organization etc. in order to fulfill both of our needs. 

I have a Gates BC1-T 1KW Broadcast Transmitter available for anyone who wants it. It uses a quad of 833A's which I will have available with the transmitter as well as thew other tubes (807's etc) it requires. It is in either working condition or mostly working condition. I used it almost daily up to about 4 years ago. It is currently tuned to the 160M Amateur band on 1.885kc. The oscillator and power amp etc stages are also tuned to 160M, but could be tuned to other frequencies within it's realm very easily without changing any components. It could also be retuned to the Broadcast band very readily if need be. That is my only reason for wanting to find it a new home. I just need the space.

If you really want it, I'll make you an unbeatable deal! You'll have to come and get it though as it's currently in my basement Hamshack and I want it out of there to make room for more vintage Amateur gear. I just need the space. 

You can contact me via email or if you'd rather call my telephone number is: 215-493-1926. 

Regards,
             Joe Cro N3IBX

Hi Joe,

Thanks for linking to the video.  It was very well done.  Did you notice how
neat and organized all the tables were?  Quite different from shows here in
the States.
