I just got two.....whole....van....loads. You can't really tell, but it's packed four stacks deep.....

:para:

If that's a "serious" question, looking for 77-3 for a Bell 2122 audio amp. (Not 2122A, B or C, just 2122).
I think I see it -- driver's side, stack 3, second file from the bottom. It's the tan one.

You're fortunate that folks are pitching traditional file cabinets left and right. It'll probably take about 6 of 'em to hold all that.

Chip

I actually ordered 20 banker's boxes from Office Depot, they'll be in tomorrow. Thank God!

I'm completely serious. I just went through the 700s, 800s, and 900s and have 6 banana boxes full of doubles :eek:

I'll be glad to see if I have yours once I get down to the low numbers. Anyone else?

Got a copy of 1300-2 ?

More may come to mind.

Unfortunately no....the numbers are pretty full right up till about 1200, and then they get really spotty.

I'd be interested in 1223-2 if by chance you have it.

Anyone else?

Do you have '526-SED'?

Skips from 1215 to 1281.....

I should have folder 526 easily, but what's "SED"?

"Special Equipment Data reprinted from the manufacturer (usually a schematic only)."

These were like an additional newsletter included in some sets to add circuit changes or to cover equipment that Sam's themselves never did a folder on.

.

I'm still interested. What's the status?

Much to my shock, I have 525 and 527....526 is missing :eek:

:( I'll have to go with a nearest neighbor.

Do you have '221-7'?

'304-10' or '153-8' Might also work, depending on the chassis series covered.

Colectorad, I have a full 526 set. The "Photofact Servicer" sheet includes a schematic for Majestic Models 78, A, 79, 81 thru 86, 88 (Series 123-17, 124-21, 124-2-21). Is that what you're looking for? If so, PM me your e-mail and I'll send you a scan. Have to keep the original, its my only copy.

PM sent.

:thmbsp: I sent a PM also , asking about a schematic for a "Victorian model 600" Reel to Reel tape recorder ...

Got your PM, sorry about the lag....I started a living room repaint and two Admiral 19A11s at the same time and got myself buried! :)

Figured I might as well answer here, because you never know....someone else in the future might be looking for it too. There's a Victoria model TR650 in Sams 520-16, which would be 1961.....but that's a transistor radio. Any chance there's any more manufacturer info on it?

Hi Tim , Thank You for responding and believe me , I have no problem whatsoever with the time since I posted being only last night and your response . I realize life is a buisy endeavor and I appreciate the help !

So , this was made by "Victorian Electronics LTD. Peoria , Illinois" and is serial number H36626 .

I got the 1963 year from an Ebay listing that was selling the exact same machine and the owner's manual being sold with it said it was a 1963 model . Of course I got mine at a yard sale , minus the manual , microphones , power cord , and any other accessories that may have originally came with it .

Edited to add photo :)

Apparently, Sams has a separate tape recorder series....separate from the TV and radio Sams. Unfortunately, don't have any....and I don't see it listed in my Sams index either....

You need to search Allied and Lafayette catalogs from that era - they sold odd-named audio equipment by the droves. We used to find info that way, or an identical model rebadged as a Lafayette/Concord/Knight/Realistic, etc, that was listed in Sams. Often one manufacturer, many names....


Cheers,

:thmbsp: Well that's great to know that there were SAMS covering Tape Recorders , now all i gotta do is find one . I do appreciate you taking the time to look and I'll now search for the tape recorder series .

Cheers,

Thank You for the tip Brian , I'll bet this was sold as a few different brands because when I typed reel to reel tape recorder into Ebay's searchbar , I saw a couple that looked like mine but with different names , I'll have to go search them up again and note the different labels .

How about CTC 96 (A) Sams 1870-2?
Thanks.

Tim - I have a pretty solid run from 180 to 380 if'n you need some to fill in. I dumped all the ones higher than 1000 a few years ago, a mistake.

If you could scan-email 505-7 for a Magnavox AM-FM preamp, I'd be a happy minion.

1121-1 ?
for my moto wid set

Should have it. Drop me a PM with your email address and if I have it I'll scan it in and email it tomorrow.

madRad45 still hasn't responded...

I have 221-7 pulled and sitting on my desk. PM me with your email address and I'll get it scanned and sent. Let me know if you need the whole thing or just certain sections.

Hi Colectorad, I emailed the scan on 06/20 to the address you PM'd to me. Maybe there was some sort of issue, but I did not receive a "bounce" message or anything. Shall I try again? I'll also PM you my direct e-mail.
-Mark

**Update!**

Sorry for the delay. As madRad45 stated, he did indeed send the scan immediately on June 20th, however, it would appear that 'Outlook.com' completely blocks messages with attachments from unknown senders. It didn't even reach my junk folder. When he re-sent me the message without the attachment, it ended up in my inbox with no issues. I then added him to my 'safe senders' list and he was able to send the file with no issues.

Thanks again to madRad45 and Kamakiri for their hard work and generosity!

Tim,

I'd be interested in 183-2 if you happen to have a spare copy. It's for a Bendix TM17C. No hurry. Thanks!

Got it :)

Message me your address....

You got it, wow! I have a couple holes in my Sams from 1-38 and again at 131- the early 200's. Thanks a bunch for offering these. :thmbsp:

I've been away for some time. I've got a list of SAMS I could use. I looked up the numbers. 601-1 for a Silvertone, 874-3 for a Sears, 354-7 and 337-15-S for an Emerson. Thanks!

I've got the model numbers noted and will dig through tomorrow :)

Any luck on 77-3 for a Bell 2122 audio amp? (Not 2122A, B or C, just 2122)? (Post 2)

Thanks,
Chip

Ed,
Since Kamakiri doesn't have a copy, if you want, I could copy set 429-10 for the transistor multi-band Philco radio.
PM me your email so I can send it. It may take a day, there are 12 pages.

Looking for 723-8 for a Panasonic model 720 clock radio

hi, ran into a problem on the hoffman 7M140, CH. 300-17, if memory servs the sams # is 236-6. thank you very much!

Didn't have it, but I'm 99% sure that's the one I gave to OS X with the Hoffman I restored for him. Toss him a PM, I'm sure he can send you a copy of it.

Hi Tim ,

would you happen to have ;

Sams # 836-8 for the GE T1225A AM FM radio ?

I'd like to restore this one because it uses both the usual 35W4 / 50C5 , 12AV6 , 12BE6 and 12BA6 for the AM portion but uses transistors for the FM portion (near as I can tell) .

Thank You .

Drop me a PM and I'll check when I get back from ETF :)

Thank You Tim , PM sent and I hope you and all the VKers have a great time at the ETF :thmbsp:

Unfortunately, nothing North of 1496.....
Darn.

Got 1471-1?

Skips from 1470 to 1473. The higher numbers I have a lot of holes....

Darn.

Got 1471-1?

What's the set? I don't have the Sams either (1443-1489 are MIA...) but I may have it in Tekfax, OEM manual, or PDF....

I go from 307 to 2025, pretty continuous, minus holes in the 1200-1500 region. Dad had a loaner service for Sams, and when he closed up in 2008, he still had ~160 folders out on loan - he let them keep them, hence my holes, particularly for more common sets in the 1700-1800 series Sams...not to mention the ones I'g provided to others..

What's the set? I don't have the Sams either (1443-1489 are MIA...) but I may have it in Tekfax, OEM manual, or PDF....

It's for my Bradford (GE) 19QB set. I'm also looking for one for my E48-2 Sylvania (Sams 1884-2); they're the only sets I have that are covered by Sams.

I may have the factory (GE) manual for the 19QB - a scan would be possible. E48 set I may have the Sams for - yours for postage. Lemme check in the morning - gotta play daddy tonight....

Awesome, thanks.

It may not be possible to search as I dont know the folder number, but Im looking for a schematic for a 1972-73ish B&W Sears TV, Model 528.51330113 and serial number X34121150. CRT is a 19VCKP4 if that helps at all. thanks

I have the folder guide, and it's not anywhere in the Sams that I can see.....goes from 528.51240 to 528.51340 and both of those are 1958 model year. Double check the model number....... :)

Sams folder 1214-3.

Sears numbers are tricky to navigate in the index. You have to find the 528. section, and then use the next digits as if they are separate numbers. 51240 and 51340 are equivalent to 51,240 and 51,340.

528.51330113 requires you to first find the 528. section, and then the number 51,330,113 (which is way larger than 51,340). Look again, and you'll see how it seems screwy as you can't assume the numbers to the right of the decimal point are fractions.

http://www.videokarma.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=195564&stc=1&d=1505750713

Everyone's knowledge of these things always amazes me here. Just to verify, I double checked the model number and it is correct.

My Sams skips from 1212 to 1215. Bah.

Thank you for looking. At least now I know what folder I need.

I have 1214-3 - yours for postage.

It has a tear along the spine, and someone drew a tube diagram off in one corner, but it's 100% usable and complete.

PM me your address.

Thank you! PM sent

I'm looking for SAMS 374-16.

Got it! PM me your address :)

Sams 404 if available :D

Which folder?

I forgot I had asked you about 192-6 back on page 3 of this thread. I decided it would be best to test the CRT before moving forward. Eventually acquired a tester and the 17LP4 is 9/10:). You can delete my recent thread in the classifieds if you want, it's really not contributing anything useful.

Which folder?

Sorry, it was 404-1

How about a Sams 1525-3 ?

Thanks

Unfortunately no luck on either.....

As your holiday schedule permits...

I find myself in need of a Sams for Sylvania 21C626B for my Sylhouette HaloLight adventure.

Looks like Sams 427-2 (folder 2), 21C626 Series.

Thanks!

Unfortunately missing folder 427.....

For the rest of you guys, I'll get them out this week :)

OK, thanks -- I appreciate you taking a look-see.

Chip

OK, thanks -- I appreciate you taking a look-see.

Chip

Maybe I have this in Sams, but I do have it in E/T digest, which is factory Sylvania. I will check. your for postage

I do have the circuit digest 445 - Sylvania 541 chassis which listed your model, pm me with your email and I will scan a color copy to ya. This schematic itself is way better than the Sams version IMHO but Sams does have all the photos, parts list, etc.

Arrived today, thank you.

Anyone have 519-12 ?

Best Regards
Max

I finally got mine. Two weeks in the mail!

Anyone have 519-12 ?

For a Realistic Stereodyne 40. Yep! I can either scan it in or mail the original.....your call.

For a Realistic Stereodyne 40. Yep! I can either scan it in or mail the original.....your call.

Scan would be easier, do you still have my email? Very much appreciated.

I also have the tuner, the Realistic Model T-5, which I want to find a sams for. There's one on ebay, so I know it exists, but the folder number is illegible.

The capacitors re--formed nicely, coupling caps are all ceramic... Hard to believe it but it works perfectly on all original parts (except tubes, didn't come with any)

Toss me a PM with your email and I'll get it done tomorrow :)

I’ll buy anything you might have for GE porta color sets if you don’t mind looking. Thanks.

I am in need of sams 966-5 and 1072-7 do you have those.
thanks steve

Now *I'm* in need of a Sams!

Kamakiri, I sent you a PM about a SAMS file.

Kamakiri, sent you a PM about SAMS 662-8.

Thanks:thmbsp:

I've sent you a PM request.

No problem. Thanks for checking. How about 2316-2?

Nothing that new unfortunately......

Thanks for checking!

I just got two.....whole....van....loads. You can't really tell, but it's packed four stacks deep.....Looks nice!!!!

Do you still have any of it now??

Sure do. It's all properly sorted and in boxes. I've helped out a lot of people both here and on the Vintage Television Collectors group on FB with them :)

Tim,
I need Sams 368-14.
Thank you.

Hi
I have a Philco 46-1209, Sams 24-19 I believe.
Would you have it?

Thanks

How about my RCA KCS116C? "Norman" corner console 21" Silverama screen

I need a Sams 718-9 or a scan of one. A good scan would do and could be emailed to me.
Thanks

Do you have anything for an Admiral C3305A Television? Thanks

I notice Tim hasn't been around for some time - has anyone else got a Sams library on their hands?

Do you have the SAMS for a Zenith Model/Chassis H2437R Porthole TV? I believe the model was called “Irving” Thanks!

Do you have the SAMS for a Zenith Model/Chassis H2437R Porthole TV? I believe the model was called “Irving” Thanks!

Have you checked here? http://earlytelevision.org/tv_schematic_diagrams_zenith.html

The number you posted is a model number. A porthole Zenith has a chassis number in the format of ##X## where #is a numeral 0-9 and X is a letter A-Z (though Zenith skipped letters that look like numbers such as I and O).
In any model year Zenith would have around 1-4 different monochrome TV chassis numbers and those 2-ish different chassis would go into 100s of distinctly different looking cabinet options each cabinet having its own number to distinguish it. When asking electronic repair questions it's always better to post the chassis number (if you know or can find it) because it's more widely recognized/remembered by those who have worked on one.

Need set 138, folder 7, covering a 1951 Philco 51T-1601. Please contact me via PM if available. Thanks!

Need set 138, folder 7, covering a 1951 Philco 51T-1601. Please contact me via PM if available. Thanks!

I might have one I could take a pic of if you only need the information.

I also have some later SAMS from the 60s and 70s that I haven't tossed (yet). If anyone wants an original SAMS just to have because they're cool, let me know. Anything I have left is available for the asking.

John

Do you have a Sams for a Magnavox T-925 chassis? It's a 13/14 inch black and white portable from the late 1960s.
