Sitting in Columbus, Indiana watching a video about a locally made radio. Can't beat it. Very surreal. My coworker just advised me that he worked at the 17th St Arvin plant (he was making auto parts for Cummins, also local) in the 1990's and while cleaning parts racks during the summer shutdown he found an office behind one of the massive shelving units. The door was sealed-shut from years of paint ...but not locked. The office was full of examples of the car parts, pumps, televisions and radios that were built there. He was afraid his boss would order everything removed and thrown away like all the other "old Arvin stuff" so he closed the door and replaced the big parts rack. The building still stands. Not sure about that room.

KNX is awesome in it's over-poweredness. I'm in Northern California, near the Oregon boarder and many years ago in the evening I'd pick up KNX and listen to the KNX Drama Hour. They were dependable as could be; a decade could go by and you could tune in at 9PM and it was still on. Then they got a new program director and he give the Drama Hour the axe. :o/

Oh, believe me, we would miss many of you...just not Holly Weird. When I was in high school, a friend gave me one of those. He got rid of it because it ate batteries real bad. I looked it over internally, then poked around with a VTVM...ooops, just dated myself there...Dang! I coulda swore I shut this thing off. I checked the switch again. It was off...but that solder bridge shorted right across it. It had to have left the factory that way. Anyway, I used that radio for years...then sold it to a friend who just had to have it. Think he still has it. Great vid, BTW. Thanks for limberin' up my nostalgia bone(8-). I was thinkin' of adding a resistor there...with a switch and mark it "distant" when the switch unhooks the resistor...and "local" when the switch is made. Got a decade box?

That's a quasi-complementary-symmetry output stage. The transformer develops out of phase drive to the series connected transistors which operate in class B. Only one conducts at a time through the speaker. Using a "center tapped" connection on the battery is a way of avoiding having both positive and negative power supplies, which is the way this circuit is usually used. All that weirdness to avoid using an output transformer! The driver transformer could also be eliminated by using complementary drivers, IE: one PNP and one NPN.

The local/DX switch is usually a circuit that allows you to select either a narrow or wide bandwidth in the IF circuit. When you narrow the bandwidth, you may lose some fidelity, but you will make the receiver more selective, allowing it to reject strong adjacent signals. It won't really help attenuate an over-powerful station but it will help the receiver to be able to reject that station in favor of weaker adjacent stations. Hope this helps.

Benefited from your videos and used Russian replacement for the front-end transistor. Thanks for your videos.

I have two of these also. One has been owned by me since receiving it as a gift in 1963. I have done nothing to it, it still is as hot as the day I got it. The other one was given to me by a friend about two years ago. It has the distortion you speak of. I suspect it is the first IF transistor that is sensitive to overload from the converter. These are pretty hard to work on, but possible.

We have out 2m and 70cm repeaters on a hot AM tower they are passed through what’s called an isocoupler it’s basically two close tuned loops that couple and pass the signal. Everything beyond the coupler is bonded to the tower and everything on the other side is bonded to ground. In our case it’s just one of the phasing towers so it’s only directly coupled to the AM transmitter at night. So when doing tower work we use a hot stick with a ground wire to ground the tower then clamp a ground on and do work at the isocoupler. Even with the tower not connected to the transmitter it’s got allot of voltage on it you can easily draw a 3” arc and listen to the station!

If the 80 microfarad on the audio driver transistor's emitter resistor bypass capacitor (almost said cathode resistor, lol) goes open, you will also get really weird "gritty" audio. I think it is because the emitter voltage starts floating around on top of the resistor relative to the base and causing weird feedback. The capacitor is designed to hold that voltage constant. The same thing happens on tube equipment, but they use small value caps that really never go bad. Earlier designs used resistor networks & the filter choke right off the rectifier to generate negative grid bias relative to a grounded cathode.

It would be interesting if you could take some other transistor radios and maybe even some tube radios (battery tube radios, or maybe take an inverter with you in your car) to document how well their AGC/AVC is able to cope with a very strong signal. Are tubes or transistors better in this regard? I heard that altering the bias on transistors does not significatly alter their gain the way it does on tubes. Is that true?

Now that I have watched your video all of the way to the end, I should mention that my friend and I lived in Rochester, NY, and his Arvin radio did a very good job of receiving 740 out of Toronto (it was CBC at the time). In my recollection, some of the strongest local stations, such as WHAM did sound a bit distorted. Perhaps, this radio was meant for fringe area reception, as you suggest. One thing that really surprises me about the voice/music switch on your radio is that the "music" position appears to roll off the highs. That makes no sense to me. The wide IF does not surprise me much. I have an early 1960s transistor radio on which adjacent carrier whistles can faintly be heard at night. When these radios were new, many people were using them to listen to music, and radio stations weren't using the NRSC treble boost EQ that exists today.

I think the middle can was intentionally tuned off a little bit, from factory, to reduce distortion. (This is a common thing, primarily the factory tunes the cans for minimum distortion). The other Arvin radios shown probably still have the middle can tuned off a little bit. Because you have peaked it, it will perform better for DX than the other two.

I would try to change DC bias (by R2 or R3/R4) of RF transistor to change RF gain. Even if the signal is not distorted on RF stage output, it can be high enough to cause clipping in next stage - converter. You can check whole IF part without AGC loop if you put 455kHz with AM modulation to converter and measure AF output on detector. Output signal (and so the gain) must be similar for all 3 radios .

You know theirs a technique used in Radio to suppress excessively strong radio signals using full wave diode clamping on the antenna, so that extremely strong signals do not over saturate the IF first stage, but the clamp does not effect the weaker signals at all. 2hf low capacitance diodes will do the job it is a simple fix, and saves sacrificing a good high gain radio.

Forever we've been hearing that the San Andreas fault will eventually cause California to break off and slide into the ocean so I think the rest of the country are used to the idea of California going away, but the politics ensures this 'hope', and the gentrification of places in states to the east of CA that are getting the people from the exodus probably feel the sooner the better. They're tired of the inflation that Californians bring with them, and also the dumb politics that they support and try to elect in their new home states that drove them out of the CA to begin with. Thus the assumption of low IQ. I know most Californians think they're smarter than everyone else in the country but frankly we feel the opposite about that.
