just bought a Telematic Jig
Hey guys, I recently picked up a CTC-16 and had it delivered to my storage unit for the time being. I wanted to bring the chassis home and work on it so I bought a telematic TV repair jig off ebay. I wanted to know a little about it, with shipping it cost me about $160 hopefully I didn't over pay. I don't have any instructions and it came with a few yokes. What do I need to hook it to my chassis? Also it looks home made the cabinet is a GE, is this typical?
Here is a link to the auction. Tomorrow I will clean it up and show you guys everything. https://www.ebay.com/itm/32592070307...mis&media=COPY |

You need the right yoke cable for the chassis, a roundy CRT adapter
a 4 wire roundy yoke harness.& a set-up book. That will do almost any chassis with tubes. You do not need convergence cables for the most part. Zeno LFOD ! |

Here are some pictures. I'm still wondering if it is partially homemade, the cabinet looks like it was a Conar color TV at one point. I only have adapters for filco and zenith. Is there a way to make these adapters is there anything special in them? I'd like to see if I could make one myself. Also the yoke adapter cable that comes out of the front, has two wires torn off one is a red wire that looks to go to the frame of the picture tube, the other wire is light blue and goes back to a jumper that plugs into the Yoke on the test jig. They're ripped off the plug does anyone know where they would solder to? It's tricky to post pictures so I'm going to put them on my Google Drive and share links.
Here's the folder. https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...geQRClzsvbEm0r |

I think you should track down the manual.
Jigs are great & for many yrs I was the shop jig man. But most TV shops had cheap owners that would mouse things instead of fixing them right. Should be easy to find the book, Telematics were common. Add the RCA yoke cables & you can do most sets. Jigs are for major problems. The pix is there but not so great. Good enuf to fix most problems or rebuilding a chassis that cant be done right on the road. BTW For convergence some sets put the vert out cathode cap & resistor on the conv panel ( Admiral, Maggy, & others ) The vert lin will pull up at the bottom. Just hang in near values & skip the cable. Zeno |

I remember my dad's telematic
The cabinet was metal, maybe dark gray. Only thing I have from that somewhere is all the adapters I kept my Sylvania ck3000 i think the model. Never used it in 25 yrs |

I see alot of yoke cables but they have part numbers not listed in my 1979 catalog.

It's possible to make your own yoke adapters out of old octal sockets wire and an octal base or spade terminals. I've got a different RCA badged telematic that only officially supported the CTC-4 and newer and I reverse engineered an adapter I had to figure out yoke pinout and made my own adapter for a CTC-2B.

I don't know if your jig uses the same pin out as mine. If you have adapters you know are for your jig and can identify which TV they are meant for then you can pull the Sam's for that TV and figure out the jigs pinout by reverse engineering an adapter you have......This is basically what I did for mine. I looked at all the yoke adapters that came with mine (most were for solid state crap that I wouldn't touch with a 10' pole) until I found one I recognized as 60s-70s Zenith and reverse engineered that to figure out the jig pinout.

1 Set Horizontal to 12.0 2 Set Vertical to 14 3 attach zenith 852-308 adapter to the 852-302 yoke extension cord You can also use an RCA 10J106 Jig 1 set horizontal to 13.7 2 set vertical to 14 Then basically just plug the telematic adapter right into it. I found out the Adapter I had (YA-35) fits the following Zenith models. 12B14C50 12B14C52 19CC19 19DC11 19DC12 19DC20 19DC21 19DC22 19EC13 19EC22 20BC50 20CC50 23DC14 23EC15 Also the Yoke extension wire that is on the set seems to have an RCA part number it is 10J112. I actually found an adapter on ebay with that part number, I may buy it for the plug so I can make the adapter once we figure out the wiring. I was able to find a 70 to 90 degree picture tube adapter. So now it's a matter of just figuring out this yoke wiring Here is a pic of what the catalog says about using the adapters on other jigs maybe it will help with reverse engineering. https://drive.google.com/file/d/10Qe...w?usp=drivesdk Last edited by Aperna1985; 04-18-2024 at 08:02 PM. |

search this site for telematic. There have been discussions in the past about adapters and usage.
