During my 8 years in the US Army back in the 1970's I had two of these little sets. Different brands, of course. The first I purchased in Tokyo, it was brand named Crown, had a built in AM/FM radio came with a detachable 100-110 volt adapter as well as one that took I think it was 9 C cells. That one lasted a long time till one night whilst on arms room guard (duty where they locked you up between the arms room and the issue room with a .45 and 3 rounds of ammo, super booooooring duty and the TV was a life saver. The set smoked and stopped working. I tore into it and found a resistor had burned in half. I think I must have had the power pack set to 100 volts? It was, after all designed for use in Japan, not the USA. So I took the little guy to a TV repair center on Fort Bliss, the fellow there said since the set was never imported into the US, he could not get a schematic and was thus unable to determine which resistor to replace the burned own with. So I took the little guy home, sad that a set that had served me in my bunker in Nam as well as the Arms Room at Fort Bliss, and many times into the field during desert training was gone. Then I had this wild idea to simply bypass the damn resistor, so I stripped a bit of copper wire out of a larger wire and wrapped it around the two pieces that were once joined as a resistor and soldered it in. The little guy came back to life and worked as well as ever. I had a partner who worked with me after hours delivering furniture for Unite Freight Sales out on Montana Avenue in El Paso, he also had another part-time job as a night watchman for a small local airport, keeping watch over the aircraft. When he was over for coffee one day he spotted my little set and made me an offer I could not refuse for the little set. I sold it to him, last I ever saw of it, he had wired it in to his car and mounted it under his dash so he could sit back and enjoy his nights watching tv instead of airplanes parked on the tarmac. Later I found that I really missed the set, so one day I found a Panasonic mini TV that was olive drab in color, looked exactly like a piece of military gear. I purchased it and it came with me into the field many many times, I could sit in my radio teletype rig and watch TV, my wife would pre-cook some hamburgers for me and I would heat the atop a small lantern, stick them back on the bun and squeeze some ketchup from McDonald's. Since my rig was considered classified as I sent and received classified information, I always had it locked, when an officer would come for some reason or another, I could flip the switch on the little OD TV and they had no idea that it was not part of the very complicated configuration of the ANGRC122 Radio Teletype rig.

Like saving classic cars of the 1950’s and 1960’s you do one fantastic job on them, even if they’ve been baking out there in the desert for 45+ years. So much for junk tires, they can sit out there and rot. Keep the good videos coming, I’m a geek of electronics like you and Radiotvphononut. Learned of both of your KZitem channels in August of 2016, just a week or so after my mom passed away. If I find KZitem profitable, I may get myself a KZitem channel and join you guys. I’d like to see you resurrect the unresurrectable electronics. If not, hold onto them for they can be used for spare parts down the road.

I had one that looked like the first, but was branded CROWN. I purchased it in Tokyo when I was on my way home from Vietnam to be with my wife when our first child was born in 1971. I bought it back to Vietnam and used it to watch AFVN when we were in garrison, it sat under my bunk in the bunker when we were, well out and about, as it were. Great little set. I kept it with me when I came home as well. It had built in AM/FM radio so it was a great little set. One day, as I sat in the Arms Room with a loaded .45 guarding all the arms, I had it on, and a mighty BANG came from inside, the magic smoke filtered up through the top. Took it to the Base TV repair shop, they said it was a blown resistor, however they could not tell the size, and because it was never imported to the US they could not get a schematic. They advised me to throw it. Well I loved that little set, so I simply wrapped a bit of copper wire from one lead of the missing resistor, to the other, and the set came back to life. I was showing it to a fellow who worked part time for me delivering furniture after hours on base, he loved the fact that it had a battery pack you could use when out and about, took a bunch of D cells. Totaled up to 12 volts. I sold it to him and he mounted it under the dash of his Dodge, which he used when he did part time security work for an off base company. It served him well, he was still using it when I left Fort Bliss for Fort Myer, I lost contact with him after that. He wired it directly into his car power so as not to waste money on batteries.

ESR is not the be all/end all of judging capacitors. Too many today assume that ESR being low means it is OK. Well, a shorted cap will have good ESR. Leakage will be ignored by most ESR meters, as will off-value capacitance. ESR meters are the simplest things to make but they won't tell you about many other failure modes. Meters that measure value MAY give you a clue: bad caps will have an elevated capacitance reading. Some will read 200-300 percent overvalue. Most are more subtle. Ideal examination requires something like a Z-meter (Sencore).

very good work though, but I think, you could have fix this ! The defektive output stage in the vertical and the working horizontal are the most critical stages, that you made working well, the if stage is not critical... The video-driver transistor works as an emitter-follower, every Si-pnp- would work here (BC558 or so..), the GT313 is way to fast as you said, but can produce some VHF-noise if not properly installed. I am glad to see the monitor-part work, though !

I was otherwise in the Navy as an electronics technician working at the transmitter site there. Sony deemed us to be a "service station" and sent a big box of replacement parts for this TV model to stock. Just about everything. Yoke assemblies, individual parts, assembled boards, cabinet parts. But (and this disappointed me) just not quite enough to assemble a complete TV. I bought one myself as they sold for about half price at the Navy Exchange there. At the time, it was considered a very attractive and well built TV. I didn't own it long enough for any of the failure issues to surface.

My daughter tells me that my old Panasonic B&W mini TV like that is out in her storage locker. I thought I had thrown it away many years ago. I picked it up new years ago when I was a soldier, the Crown that I purchased in Tokyo went to hell and the base show said no fix to it. I wrapped the leads where the resistor had blown with wire and it began working again. I sold it to a Staff Sergeant who was working part time after duty as a motorized security guard. He had to furnish his own car, so he plugged the set into this car and mounted it under his dash. It was still working a couple years later when he was transferred. So at any rate I wanted a set to carry with me when we went out to the desert for a couple weeks training problems, the Panasonic came in Olive Drab, that's the one I purchased because it worked fine to toss it in my RATT rig, everyone thought it was some sort of oscilloscope or something, then when the evening came, I would sit in the rig where it was warm, secure (Secret Crypto clearance to open the door!) start my propane lantern and heat up some hamburger patties my wife had prefried for me and watch TV while enjoying my burgers and fries.

Yup! Have to shotgun all of the electrolytics otherwise you'll be replacing most of the transistors (might not even be available) get rid of that durn selenium rectalfire in the power supply ( that was from a 60's vintage Popular Electronics comic of a technicians wife going shopping for parts for him). You haven't seen a packed board until you have worked on a Motorola HT220 walki. That radio drive many techs to drinking, fix one item and break another in the process. Those sets were "mega bucks" for the time period. Mine set me back about $110 back in the late sixties for a kid in high school. The huge alkaline rechargeable battery pack set me back about $30 and was rechargeable but lasted only 3 years.

The whispers ripple down through the ages... about this Shango066... who with a laying of the hands - and application of electricity - resurrects the dead... the decaying... who's parts long since scattered to time... but once a year, one was sacrificed... one HAD to be sacrificed... to the screams... and the glowing torches of the approving, smiling, nodding masses

Great video. I am currently repairing a Sony KV-8000. Yoke is removed and I am not looking forward to doing the full alignment on it.

I think you would have fixed it quickly if nobody had gotten into it and tried to fix it before you. The aluminum foil on the fuse is a good indicator of that.

Elna capacitors are highly regarded in high end audio applications. I cant say so much for the old Japanese grey ones but ELNA silmic capacitors are nice for high end audio

Isn't the forward voltage drop between base and emitter germanium transistor is around 0.2V to 0 3V?

I have my Grandmother's old Sony B&W portable. Much bigger screen. Not sure but I think it's 10 inch approx diagonally. Not sure if it still works. Keepsake. She never used a battery pack. Just plugged into 120 volt A/C.
