Subject: [NJARC] Free Zenith console
Message-ID: <CAOUs0uzwNzsmMDxGLuxsOFVJ9dj=yid8sWV_9GJqk90TqC0xCQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hey everyone!
I am cleaning out one of my storage units and I need to get rid of a big
black dial a big black dial Zenith console.  . It is in decent shape. I'd
rate the cabinet 6.5 out of 10. It is a 5 tube receiver. The speaker and
the front bezel are in good condition. The grill cloth is torn. All of the
knobs R from other radios and don't match. I do not have any pictures of it
as my camera phone does not take pictures anymore. First come first serve,
I will respond to the first email I get. It needs to be picked up from my
storage unit in Howell New Jersey either tomorrow or Friday. We can set up
a time to meet there. Let me know

Thanks
Joe

OK, that was fast! Stop emailing me for now. I've got 3 people in line.
I'll post again if they fall through but I don't see that as likely.

Thanks

Listening to recordings of old radio shows like The Lone Ranger can be
entertaining, but how about a nearly complete archive of live news
broadcasts from during World War II?  Talk about bringing history alive!

A stash of 'forgotten' transcription disks used for time-shifting CBS
network newscasts during the forties is being made available online.  Check
it out here <https://soundcloud.com/uwlibraries/sets/milo-ryan-phonoarchive>
.

You can read the backstory here

Fantastic, Dave. 

The very first item is a broadcast from Edward R. Murrow on Britain entering the war. Minute by minute. 
You are right. History comes alive.

Hi Dave,
Thanks for that link. -- Scary!!! Shows how dangerous it was back then.
People were desperate and scared ? with good reason!
Not that we?re much better off these days!!!
Too bad we can?t download this stuff and broadcast it in the club museum.

Wayne, the other fellows may be better able to answer that question, but there is usually one vendor in particular who has beautifully refinished cathedrals and tombstones. I think they may look better than they did the day they left the factory!

There is usually at least one vendor (Joe Milano, the fellow Joe Connor
referred to) at the swapmeets with a good selection of restored radios.
And yes, people seem to like his radios a lot.

All,


Does anyone have a copy of the user manual\schematic that I could have a digital copy of for the Triplett 630 VOM?  It seems like there are dozens of versions of this same model number.  I have the same model as the one pictured below on antiqueradios:


http://www.antiqueradios.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=206771


I've already sent a message to the user who posted and originally uploaded the manual to Triplett before they took it down.  I still have a few PMs I could send but I thought I'd ask the masses.


Its' a difficult version to work with because the resistors are each in the "turret" covering their value.  Without the schematic I can't tell what they are supposed to be.  I think a few of them have drifted in tolerance because I can't get the 1x and 10x ranges of Resistance to "zero".


Regards,


Matt

Matt,

Try this one:  http://bama.edebris.com/manuals/triplett/630a/  there are 
a couple of others there too.

Bookmark this site!  There is a lot of go info here.

Make sure you have a good D-cell and that the contacts are clean. The 
current is pretty high on the 1X ohms range.  The other battery is only 
used on the highest ohms range.

Good luck,

Message-ID: <1535292e62e-3600-12eb7@webprd-m22.mail.aol.com>



Hi everybody,

    I'm stuck on how to get the tuning knob off of a Zenith K731.  This radio dates from the early 1960's.  I remember reading that they used some sort of lock to hold the knobs on as a safety feature.  I just can't remember how to do it.  Can anybody help with their knowledge on how to get the knob off?  The photo below is not my radio.  My radio looks far better. 
    I just need to get inside to replace the caps and, rebuild the IF's on this radio.  Good old Zenith IF's, the quality went in, then the thunderstorm came out.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Joe Devonshire   AB1YO

 Thanks to everyone for your help.  Yes, when you remove the bottom screws and carefully, and slowly pull on the chassis, it comes out and leaves the knobs behind.  Safety feature for a "HOT" chassis.  To compound things, I had a Sams sheet for the chassis listed on the bottom of the case, 7K07.  Well, you guessed it, they put a 7M07 in there.  Not too different, but enough.

Regards,
Joe

Maybe the knob part on the inside of the radio has clips on them to keep from pulling out of the cabinet.  I remember removing all of the chassis screws from the bottom of the cabinet and pulling the chassis out of the back of the cabinet - the knobs would stay fastened to the front of the cabinet.  Good luck.

Hi everybody,

    I'm stuck on how to get the tuning knob off of a Zenith K731.  This radio dates from the early 1960's.  I remember reading that they used some sort of lock to hold the knobs on as a safety feature.  I just can't remember how to do it.  Can anybody help with their knowledge on how to get the knob off?  The photo below is not my radio.  My radio looks far better. 
    I just need to get inside to replace the caps and, rebuild the IF's on this radio.  Good old Zenith IF's, the quality went in, then the thunderstorm came out.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Radio experts,
	I am about to build a brand new, out of the box, 1970 Heathkit AR-29 stereo receiver.  I have not even unpacked it yet.  The plan is to check all resistors and change any that are out of tolerance, and replace all of the electrolytic caps.  I have an ESR meter, and did consider just replacing the bad ones, but I have read that the worst thing you can do to electrolytic is not use them.
	Also, does rosin core solder go bad after decades of storage?  Anything else I should be aware of?  
I appreciate any and all opinions.
Steve Cafiero

Hello Steve,

Yes, I think replacing the electrolytics would be a good move.  Old 
rosin-core solder should work just fine.

Now, some other things to consider:

The unbuilt kit is likely worth 5 times what the finished product would 
bring.

If you really want to be THE GUY who has the pleasure of assembling such 
a hi-tech unit, GO FOR IT!

If you want to sit and enjoy listening to it, FORGET  IT, and sell the 
thing on Ebay.  Transistor amplifiers of that era sound terrible.  This 
isn't audiophool claptrap.  The are sound technical reasons for this.  
Read up on Transient Intermodulation Distortion (TIM).

As an owner of a Dynaco Stereo 120 and a Sansui 5000 back in the day, 
both highly touted but solid state, I'd make the unbuilt kit into money, 
and buy something with tubes in it.

My two cents,
Al

Al makes a lot of sense! His mention of amplifier audio specs isn't the only
thing to consider either. The FM on that is also not going to be very good!
PLL FM stereo detectors didn't exist then and the RF front end is not going
to be that great sensitivity and selectivity wise either.

Steve,

If you want the joy of building and enjoying your treasure - Do it!

Forget the so-called unbuilt value and comparing it to new sets - enjoy it for what it is!

Every kit I built gave me lots of satisfaction of accomplishment.

I built a few tube Heathkits starting in 1955 and Eico test equipment back then.  Great fun.  When computers came along in 1976 I built a 22 slot IMSAI and still have it. It's like my child, as is my 1965-66 Heathkit SB-101 transceiver.  I'll never sell them.  My last big kit was my (computer-radio-related) "Station Control II" I use with my vintage Collins Station.

So as you can figure out by now, my vote is to build it.

Take lots of pictures along the way.

73, John

Guys,
There?s a little more to this than the money.  Yes, I know I could sell it on eBay for much more than I paid for it ($500).  
First, I built the exact same kit with my Dad when I was 10 years old.  I recently restored it.  Heathkit AR-29 Receiver Restoration <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YtmA3keFTc>, 
Second, my 12 year old son wants to build it with me.  He likes to solder and is actually interested in electronics.  How can you put a price on that?
Third, it sounds pretty good too.

That is a really cool thing, Steve. A lot of us wish our kids would show an interest in electronics (other than smart phones, video games etc.).
Replacing the caps would be a good idea. They're not expensive and it will give you peace of mind.

The plan is to check all resistors and change any that are out of tolerance, and replace all of the electrolytic caps. I have an ESR meter, and did consider just replacing the bad ones, but I have read that the worst thing you can do to electrolytic is not use them.

Message-ID: <BY1PR10MB0392CF6B7E7D4502C82BECECB5B50@BY1PR10MB0392.namprd10.prod.outlook.com>

NJARC members,


Sort of a long shot, but just wanted to see if anyone out there has a spare 3.16 ohm and a 4.0 ohm wirewound resistor 1% or better?  1/2watt should be sufficient.  I'm trying to fix the low scale on an analog VOM (Triplett 630)  that doesn't quite make it to 0 on the first two ranges.  If my digital meter is to be believed, the ones in the set are drifting upward.


  I realize these are not standard values (anymore), so before I try to order one I thought I'd see if any of you could spot me one of each?


I'll be at the meeting tomorrow night with the caps, as per usual.  Thank you!


Matt

Matt,

Keep in mind that you ca pretty much "bullseye" any value with a 
series-parallel combination of two to four resistors.  Of course, the 
limiting factor is the accuracy of you ohmmeter.

Mat,
Found the resistors I had for the 630, but they're 90.9 ohms and 909 
ohms.? I think they're for the two lower resistance ranges.? Sorry.

? I realize these are not standard values (anymore), so before I try to 
order one I thought I'd see if any of you could spot me one of each?




I'll be at the meeting tomorrow night with the caps, as per usual. 
?Thank you!

Message-ID: <56E45347.2020709@optonline.net>

Matt,

Found the resistors I had for the 630, but they're 90.9 ohms and 909 
ohms.  I think they're for the two lower resistance ranges.  Sorry.

Bill

Message-ID: <56E49C51.3010602@optonline.net>

Need a 47 ohm, 5 watt resistor.  I can use as high as 50 ohm, and of 
course a higher wattage.  (Replacing a selenium rectifier with a 1N4007 
and came up with this value.)

Thanks, Bill

Message-ID: <CAOUs0uy30qXy0qddyp4nrS-8HcC7FY_OkburvieLxGszpqcrgA@mail.gmail.com>

Hey all!

I picked this up at the flea market today. Don't really know what it is.
Maybe a potentiometer? It is made by Leeds & Northrup. It takes one D
battery inside. Based on other meters from the same company I've seen,
there should be a label inside the box lid, but there's nothing on this.Any
idea what its function is or its age?

Thanks Guys!

Hello again!
I picked up these five manuals at the flea market today for a dollar each.
I know the museum probably has ten copies of each , but I figured I'd see
if you want them. Radar fundamentals from 1942 would seem to be the most
relevant.

Pi Day is an annual celebration of the mathematical constant ? (pi). Pi Day is observed on March 14. So I had to write something about it?

Some people think Pi R Square.

Some people think Pi is a-round 2.14

I think head for the fork the discount bakery is about 200 feet past on the right.

How many puns did I get in this?

Joe,

What you have is a galvanometer, an extremely sensitive zero-center 
micro-ammeter.  The were typically used to zero a Wheatstone bridge 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wheatstone_bridge> when making precision 
resistance measurements.  There are a lot of these kicking around, 
sadly, and nobody cares.  Nice box for a crystal set.

Message-ID: <BY1PR10MB03920E43355E940E6ECE9F93B5890@BY1PR10MB0392.namprd10.prod.outlook.com>

All,


Does anyone have a radiator pressure tester that they could loan me (or potentially sell me)?  I've opened up my cooling system on one of my cars to replace the heater core, and before I go through the chore of putting the heater box back in the car I want to make absolutely sure there is no leak.  Last thing I want to do is ruin my carpet or car electrics.


I just thought I'd ask before I go out to Craigslist or Harbor Freight.  I know there are multiple different types of kits for these, different caps, etc.  From what I understand, one that does a "standard GM" sized cap will work for me.


If anybody does happen to have one, and is going to be at the Parsippany Swap Meet, that would be great, as I will need it by next weekend.


Thank you!


Matt Reynolds

Truly sad news. They are trying to sell it as "unlocking shareholder value." I remember that excuse when they took a knife to the old ATT AFTER the spinoff of the individual operating companies. They cut themselves to oblivion. 

I would like to see a company take an asset like this one and find an innovative way to make it work. You cannot grow by cutting parts of your business, only by innovating and reinvigorating it. 

Best wishes.

 OK Girls and Boys??. Here?s what is wrong:

 First of all, she is trying to melt something on the component side of the board and not the trace side. 

 Second, the ?iron? is either off, or not plugged in.

 Third, if the ?iron? was plugged in and turned on, the ?photo op? would have been more of an ?action scene? complete with harsh language.

 At least the ?safety glasses? give her an intellectual look although we really know better!

 ?Radiowild?

They aren't trying to grow the business.  That's why they are trying to sell it...  They are trying to cut their losses, increase profits to the shareholder, and move on.

Seems to be pretty much the same story for all publicly owned companies.

"progress"... right?

Matt

It's really hard to "grow" or build, or rebuild a profitable business when
the traditional revenue source, advertising, keeps shrinking. Les Moonves
is a broadcasting veteran going back to the 1970s and presumably he's
looking at data like that in Slide 5 here (
http://www.iab.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/MAGNA_Letang_IAB_Webinar_042215.pdf)
and Slide 8 here (
http://www.iab.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/PWC_IAB_2014_Full_Year_Digital_Ad_Revenue_IAB2.pdf
).

Radio suffers from the same problem as print, music, and film media. The
vast majority of Americans and people worldwide get their information and
entertainment in the most convenient way possible: on demand, any time, any
where, digitally, in the convenience (and small screen) in their hands.
Moonves and his colleagues in traditional media have been wrestling with
this for at least 15 years so if you have a brainstorm they've overlooked,
be sure to let Broadcasting & Cable (note title) know:)

David Sarnoff forecast this transition in 1964 for 2000, and he also
observed in the early 1930s, with regard to movies and television, that
every medium will continue to play a profitable part as long as it has
something unique to offer.  CBS Radio will certainly continue to appear
just as NBC Radio has in the last 30 years (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBC_Red_Network#After_the_Golden_Age_of_Radio),
just not run by National Amusements/CBS/Paramount.

Disappointing to hear when these heritage entities shut down. Perhaps this will provide opportunities for more independent companies to return to the game, which also would mean less of a focus group culture and more creative programming...but I'm not holding my breath.

Thank you, Alex, for expanding the discussion on this topic. 

I agree with Alex's assessment for the most part but would like to point out the one glaring weakness in the initial argument. It is the concept of the "traditional source of revenue." In my mind this is always the cause of death in most businesses. 

When a business begins to decline, real business leaders find a way to slowly abandon traditional sources of revenue and find new ways to repurpose their assets. When you have an asset such as traditional radio which still reaches a large population, you would think that someone could come up with a way to utilize this asset in a way to make it a viable business. 

I agree some serious brainstorming is required. I just find it interesting that most business leaders find cutting and not creative thinking is the best solution. 

I don't want to underestimate the challenge in coming up with viable alternatives. I just wish business people would sometimes take the chance to try a radically new solution rather than let traditional assumptions drive them into the ground. 

I appreciate and applaud Alex's suggestion to contact them if you have a way to save the business. 
Any ideas?

Best wishes. 
Bob

If you make high-end audio equipment for the home, you also need to make
high-end RCA tubes for the equipment--at least in France:

Dear Al and NJ ARC members, I have the attached radio in need of repair... I am not handy...so I cannot merely buy tubes...(my 2nd choice would be to sell)...

The radio is located at 826 Shadow Ridge Rd Franklin Lakes NJ  my cell phone is 908-414-0962...

Maybe one of your members do repairs? it  I would appreciate it...

Alternatively I would consider selling the radio...we are moving in less than one month...so I need to decide before then...THX

Regards

Also the battery that doesn't leak when you turn it upside down. This may have saved some of the old furniture that has acid damage today.

Not bad for a set with a coherer for a detector.  I wonder if it's true.



Maybe we need to build one.  BTW, Electro Importing was Hugo Gernsback's 
company.

Just remember that Marconi achieved a much longer distance by then also
using a coherer. Granted this is a small set, and a mile is questionable,
but, not impossible. I have about 20 coherer sets in my collection. Back in
2000, as a guest lecturer at Princeton for about 2 hours, I demonstrated
from one side of the table to the other with a similar set, HI. I was amazed
at the curiosity of the young graduate students. 73 - Mike

Subject: [NJARC] AM Band Noise Levels
Message-ID: <0fe501d1844b$3f207380$0301a8c0@Muttley>

The following was copied from the daily Tom Taylor Now E newsletter.  Note the last sentance.

Is it too late to fix the AM band? 

Some engineers privately think so, because of the rampant (and rising) noise level. It's created by everything from cellphones and tablets to fluorescent lights and power lines. Also car engines (That's why BMW says it isn't equipping its electric BMW i3 with AM). The FCC may be years late hopping on this issue, but it does have a rulemaking in progress and yesterday's deadline for comments produced a flood. The Society of Broadcast Engineers focuses on the ambient noise that plagues AM reception. It states the facts of life - the FCC can't do anything about unlicensed Part 15 and Part 18 devices "past the point of sale," and the agency's reducing its already-thin field staff. The SBE solution is basic - the only "meaningful chance" to do something is at the manufacturer level. It urges the Commission to "create obligations on manufacturers, importers and dealers." Otherwise, the group says "AM listeners have media options, and RF noise will make them exercise those options...they will simply utilize different media." When interim Chair Mignon Clyburn announced the FCC's AM proceeding at the Orlando Radio Show (building on strong work by Commissioner Ajit Pai), the one idea most AM folks agreed on was giving them greater access to FM translators. The FCC's doing that. That provides daytimers with a nighttime signal and everybody a second place on the radio dial. But is the FCC - and the industry - up for more basic fixes? Read all the AM comments filed at the FCC here. You may've noticed some radios have superior AM sound, while many don't - the quality of design and manufacturing really matters.

Regarding "find the radio ad:"


In the March 1956 Radio-Electronics, Gernsback wrote a two-page retrospect of his TELIMCO Wireless Telegraph Outfit.  Some interesting points:


1.  The Scientific American advertisement was the first home "radio set" advertisement to appear in print anywhere and the TELIMCO "was the first home radio sold to the public anywhere in the world."
2.  Range was between 300 to 500 feet without a ground.  "By using an elevated aerial 50 to 100 feet in length and by grounding one side of both transmitter and receiver to a water or gas pipe, the range was easily increased to one mile."
3.  The transmitter used an untuned circuit which would be eventually outlawed by the 1912 Radio Act.  Since the receiver was also untuned, it would pick up signals from any and all transmitting stations that were nearby.  However, the set provided young experimenters with an economical opportunity to send and receive radio signals and to learn code.
4.  Replicas of the original transmitter and receiver were donated by Gernsback to the Ford Museum in Dearborn in 1956.  Wonder if any originals survived?
5.  A replica for the museum wouldn't be hard to come up with...a spark coil, 75 ohm relay, bell (decoherer), replica coherer, spark gap, key and battery are the major components.

Folks,

The recent discussion of the TELIMCO Wireless Telegraph set, reminds me 
that I have had a coherer demonstration on the back burner for a long 
time.  I had a reasonably sensitive coherer worked up, but got stalled 
on the relay etc.

I want to get back to this but I've lost my stuff.  What I need most is 
an old Canadian five cent piece, one with high nickel content. You'll be 
able to pick it up with a magnet.  May apply to dimes and quarters as 
well.  Check your piggy bank, please.

Hi

After all of the discussions on Coherers, I decide to learn more about what they are. In the course of my research, I learned that they were used in some radio controlled Japanese toys from the fifties. 

Thought you folks would like to see the device. If you have the cash, it being sold on EBay right now. Let us know if you buy it. 

Best wishes.

Folks,

The recent discussion of the TELIMCO Wireless Telegraph set, reminds me that I have had a coherer demonstration on the back burner for a long time.  I had a reasonably sensitive coherer worked up, but got stalled on the relay etc.

I want to get back to this but I've lost my stuff.  What I need most is an old Canadian five cent piece, one with high nickel content. You'll be able to pick it up with a magnet.  May apply to dimes and quarters as well.  Check your piggy bank, please.

Mike,

How are you at glass blowing, making a T, and sealing the ends, etc.?  I 
saw a crazy Britt on YouTube who used plastic aquarium tubing.  I still 
have some glass tubing.  We'll see what happens.

That I never tried Al. The majority of commercial coherers that I have are not sealed to vacuum, or otherwise. I had one where the glass was missing but the rods where there and I bought about 10 pieces of 15 inch long glass tubing so I could cut off a little over an inch. Fits perfectly. The OD is 5mm and the ID is 3mm. If you notice, the early EI coherers were not sealed either. Of course the Marconi and the Branly were. My earliest one is an L.E. Knott from 1900 which is also not sealed. The rods fit very snugly inside the glass tube so that none of the fillings can escape. Of course there is a guy on eBay selling coherers that he made (or had made for him), which are sealed, for about $50 each, if you want to go that route. I did buy a few of them 7 years ago just for the heck of it. Just checked and he is still selling them, so look at 311400972601 . 73 - Mike

I have been collecting Radicon coherer remote toys for years and have about
20 or so. Have lots of buses, a couple of boats, sedans and tanks. I believe
the only one I do not have in the line is the robot. Figured one day it
would make for a good article. They do work amazingly well. It is indeed
interesting that the Japanese utilized coherer receivers and spark
transmitters in remote control toys almost 50 years after the coherer became
obsolete. It is interesting that during the few years that they were made,
the transmitters went through several design changes, however the basic
coherer receiver remained the same. The transmitters started out with simple
push button spark coils and eventually evolved to a piezo spark generator.

Hi Bill

When I looked at Wikipedia it said so. I know that you cannot always depend on that site but it looked fairly straightforward. 

Best wishes.

Mike, the only email I saw from you was regarding glass rods.

I asked Bob the question because neither his email nor the ebay item 
mentioned using a coherer _in this specific toy_ (not that I expect the 
person selling the toy knows what a coherer is).

Does anyone have an online source for Veneer?  I have to replace the veneer on a Crosley 18AN.  There is just no saving what is on there.  My local places here in Maine haven't worked out.

Thanks,
Joe Devonshire

Mike, the only email I saw from you was regarding glass rods.  

I asked Bob the question because neither his email nor the ebay item
mentioned using a coherer in this specific toy (not that I expect the person
selling the toy knows what a coherer is).

Hey Joe

I have bought from
http://www.rockler.com/psa-pressure-sensitive-veneer-new-sizes-24-inch-x-96-inch
.

Rockler has a good selection.

I'm sure you know, but the real trick is matching new stain on the new
veneer to the old radio color.  I buy extra so I can test color matches.

The Crosley 18AN is a beautiful radio.  I'd love to see your before and
after pics.

Rob and friends...  These are the before photos.  This is the way I found it in a rummage sale.  No Tubes and the Vol/on-off control was missing.  Radio Daze came through.  I have everything else to restore it.  As you can see, somewhat, the veneer is pretty bad.  If you can resize the photo, you will see it.  The convex sides are blistered.  The top and bottom will need to be reglued.  Aside from that, it's pretty nice.  Reception is so-so on AM and as for SW, well you know there isn't much to get these days.  
Tube complement is:  6SA7 Osc/Mod, 6SQ7 Det, AVC, 1st AF, 6SK7 IF Amp, 25Z6 Rectifier, 25L6 Output, K55B (W46773) Ballast Tube.  The only schematic I could find was in Riders 12-10.  

Whenever I get it finished, I'll send some more photos and I'll see about another article.

Joe Devonshire

A craigslist seller has one of these listed. Even the old C battery is still in place.?http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/atq/5510613331.html
I have no connection to this seller or this sale. I just figured one of you might be interested. It's pretty unusual to see a radio this old listed on craigslist.

Fred about retrieving (but haven't had the chance yet) and I want to
make sure it doesn't get given away.
