This logo has accompanied me all my life since my father bought a Baltika receiver in the early 50s. It was my first window into the world of radio. Then there were the amazing portable VEF-201 and VEF-206. These two are alive and well. But no broadcasting, alas. Thanks for the film, the level of technology was surprisingly high for 1936.
I Have Multiple VEF Radios And I Remember Tinkering With These radios In My Childhood, I Broke them so many because i was trying to retune them so i could listen to sattelites and phone calls - i didnt understand how anything worked, i wanted to tinker, TILL THIS DAY Im A Radio Enthusiast And i Have A Lot Of The Devices From THIS Factory That They tested Radio Signals And Radio Waves With..., This Video Is Filmed In A VEF Factory Wich Is Not Anymore For A Long Years. Its A Latvian Made Radio, VEF Stands For Valsts Elektrotehniska Fabrika Or (State Electrotechnical Factory) In English. Greetings From Latvia

I retired about 2 & 1/2 years ago from electronics maufacturing; rather than radio, I worked for a major manufacturer of very high - end computer hardware ( troubleshot circuit boards that went into their systems at the component level). Fascinating to see the differences between vintage radio & preent - day electronics manufacturing (largely automated today).

Now surface mount components and radio on a chip. Next to nothing in it on a PCB. Little in modern things in the way of space but so much higher component count I bet with radios with USB, MP3 playback, Bluetooth :) Old school, Had a lot of valves and resistors out of an old non working old for then (1990 at college) oscilloscope us kids 16 years old or so where given to take apart. Old but not that old. Late 50's I bet. Nice how things where done, wired point to point, legs going to where they need. No PCB. Old cheap production but quicker made in china now. Nice video. Got an amatuer radio transciever in the car and a handheld. Not this vintage though. 2018 onwards to last year!.

when I rebuild old radio's, I always use polarized molded plugs to avoid the "HOT CHASSIS" problem, the hot side is switched, and the neutral side goes to the chassis, unless the radio has a power transformer, giving line isolation safety.

@@gregoryclemen1870 Greg, I too also replace the line cord with a polarized plug no matter if the radio is hot or transformer driven. It is always good practice to plug any radio under test into an Isolation Transformer to protect yourself and your test equipment. I also use a Dim Bulb Tester just incase the death capacitor is shorted and I also remove the rectifier tube when testing the transformer just because the filter caps are most likely bad. If the transformer tests good then I move on to the IF cans testing resistance, of course with the radio unplugged and the filter caps discharged.

back then, all radio's were "Q. C." inspected, and if any radio failed inspection, it was pulled off of the line for repair/ alignment. when repaired, the radio was put back into the main assy. line, nothing was waisted!!!. I bet the chassis was strong enough to be walked on without buckling, "PHILCO" did that back in the early days, they had as part of the inspection, the chassis would be "STEPPED ON" to check for buckling, before the chassis was populated with components!!!!!

I was looking though to see if they filled in the space on the corner, behind the curved veneer. That looked to be a potential weak point. They may have and I didn't catch it. I did see some manufacturing methods still used now, such as the veneer glue being heated to seal it on to the backing wood; I've seen the same thing done on furniture restoration videos. Riveting on parts that might have to be changed later? Yep, we definitely do that now as well (but at least rivets can be drilled out/ground off). Our problem these days is tack-welding and glue on parts that might need replacing later. We can get away with lighter materials and automated manufacturing now, just as in the 1930's they were making the best use of the technologies they had then. The big difference between then and now is back then they put some thought into *repairability*, which they outright don't *want* to do now.
