Subject: [NJARC] High Voltage Caps, and useful Pilot TV parts order placed,
 stock arriving soon
Message-ID: <BLU175-W383B4BBD3650F9E2B34A15B5690@phx.gbl>



 Vintage Electronics Enthusiasts:  I wanted to give you all brief update on the club Resistor\Capacitor programs.  A few months back we mentioned on the reflector, and the broadcaster, and some meetings that we were investigating some new additions to the capacitor selection to try and address some higher voltage rated cap needs (higher than 630 volts).   Requests were sent out to gauge demand and interest, and there was some noted interest but few committed preorders placed so we decided to forego ordering a large stock of retail priced current production HV film caps due to the large unit  (and up-front) cost and low committed demand for them.   With that being said, I continued to search around for deals\closeouts\surplus values in the time that has lapsed since those initial announcements, and have been able to build up a decent selection of values at budget prices that would be useful to have in stock. We will shortly have a stock of the following:  .1    uF 4000VDC.01   uF 6000VDC
.033 uF 4000VDC.001   uF (1000 pF) 4000VDC.0033 uF (3300 pF) 4000VDC.0047 uF (4700 pF) 8000VDC  (limited supply of this value.  These were 3x the cost of the values above (but still less than retail), so stock for these is limited.  If demand\sales for this value proves to be high, we can order more) All caps listed above are film capacitors (Metalized Polyester\polypropylene, etc.).
I'm currently in process of restoring my personal Pilot TV, and as a result I had to order some oddball parts I didn't have, and due to the economies of scale, I ordered extras.  I am adding some of my overstock to the club stock.  With that being said the club will soon have a limited stock of: 3 Ohm 1 Watt 1% Metal Film Resistors (for the filament string of the TV-37.  The original carbon resistors in the TV-37 are well known to drift.  There are ~8 3 Ohm resistors in a pilot TV)1.5KE8.2CA DO-201AD bidirectional TVS Transient Diodes (for protecting the filament of the TV-37's CRT, as outlined in our June 2015 Broadcaster) As a reminder, in addition to the common antique-radio film and electrolytic capacitors, we have a large supply of new low-volt electrolytics rated at 50V for those of you working on "newer old stuff" as well.  We also have tons of 1N4007 diodes (1000V 1.0 Amp silicon rectifier diodes, which are great for replacing silicon diodes in table top radios).  We also have a small inventory of new stock of #47 lamps and some plain black plastic line cords as well.
 I will be working with our Webmaster to add the new parts and appropriate pricing to our club's website soon.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

Matt: 

Great! 

I am working on a few transmitter projects and need HV caps to 
couple the plate to the output tank. 

Looking forward to the listing of these items on the NJARC web site.

There was a Gross company in NYC that started in the early 30's, but, I only
know of them to make transmitters. Did this come out of the Tongue estate?

There will be no NJARC Broadcaster sent this month.  The next meeting will take place on Friday, September 11, at 7:30 PM at InfoAge.  Directions may be found at the club's website (http://njarc.org).  This month's meeting will feature a talk by member Robert Tevis which he has titled "More than Just Wires and Lights in a Box."  Bob plans to discuss his "ruminations on my experiences over the past year on classic radio and TV Broadcasts and resources for research."

Kutztown is less than two weeks away and I'm thinking of making a side trip

Just a quick "Thank You" for all the kind words about my video.

We are all enjoying the antique radio hobby as a small slice of our lives.

Just remember we are merely preservationists for future generations.

If you have the time, and patience, try to encourage our younger folk about our hobby.

Even if it's about how cell phones work - It's really a radio........

You may be surprised!

I am very familiar with the Siemens K32 radio as I used to have an
absolutely mint one that I obtained about 35 years ago. Wow, just thinking,
that was exactly half of my lifetime ago. It was one of the sets I sold with
a bunch of other German military sets after my divorce to raise funds. The
one on Craigslist is an absolute piece of junk. The cabinet is extremely
damaged and all the tube sockets have been changed to accommodate American
tubes. This radio was only available to higher ranking Germans. It would be
an excellent price if it was in nicer shape. As is, you are not really
buying a radio but just a few large swastikas on a piece of wood. Regards -

Sehr Interessant. 

It's a shame that it is in such bad condition.

> Greetings,
> 	First let me say that my first NJARC meeting was in September, and the club makes a new member feel very welcome.  Maybe someone can offer some assistance with a problem I am having.
> 	While doing an FM alignment on my Heathkit AR-29 stereo receiver (I had to ?fix? something that was working!), the FM gradually died out.  First the adjustments had no effect, then the stereo light stayed on, then it died, and finally the entire FM went dead.  Voltage measurements showed that the 12 VDC, which powers the FM circuitry, was about 2 volts.  The 12 VDC powers the AM/FM board, multiplex board, and the tuner.  If all of these are removed I get 12.4 VDC.  If any one of these is installed, the 12 volts drops to about 2.  Transistors Q4, Q5, and Q6 regulate the 12 VDC.  These all check out good (using an ohm meter).  Resistors R7,8,9,11,12,and 13 all check out good too.  All of the caps are brand new.  The 50 VDC, B+, and B- voltages are good, and aren?t affected by whether or not the FM is powered.  When unloaded, all voltages on the power supply board are good.  When any one of the FM boards or the tuner is connected, I get:
> Q6 emitter - very low, about 2
> Q5 base - very high, about 33.8
> Q4 base - very low, 1.5
> It seams to me that the power supply makes 12 volts, but can not maintain it with a load.
> The schematic and power supply description are attached.
