Merry Xmas!


Picture of my grandma's tree back in 1951, with a Philco TV off to the left.

And no Christmas is complete without the blinking TV-knob tree!

Not black and white, but the only christmasy picture of an old TV, with me in it.



Sears TV, the knob was pulled by my Dad off the tuner because I would always play with the knob when I was a kid.

Eating too much? Get your exercise this holiday season;

1. Yank tubes, wiggle and pull, gentle on the loctals
2. Jump capacitors, watch for sparks, get the hum out
3. Run RG6 cable, Climb the antenna, Jog the rotor to find new channels
4. Lift power transformers, Bench an old Zenith, Power up slowly
5. Spin old records, Warm Up the tubes, Feel the energy

Happy New Year to all you Super-Techs (or anyone else with the nerve to play with old stuff operating at hazardous voltages) including wa2ise

We had some of those Parson's tables when I was a teenager.
