1964 Admiral 11" portable
Hey guy's. Been awhile...Well first TV find of the year for me!
Went to the peck thing yesterday and this was the only set I saw there. Also picked up a Telechron Musalarm clock radio. This to me is a cool find because of what came with, and where it came from. I got the original box and the matching stand for this tv! Who buy's a stand for a small portable tv? I don't have photo's of the stand, but the tv hangs from it's handle on top, and the back of the set goes into an assembly of the stand to keep the tv straight. The stand can be adjusted up and down. To top it off the set was sold here in town, in '64! The shop it was sold in is long gone though and currently empty. Well, the guy told me that it currently seems to work. Has snow on the screen and shoosh coming out of the speaker. He insisted I plugged it in there, but I passed on that. I don't know how long it's been since he had it on, but it took some coaxing after I took it apart and went over it to look for any obvious issues. It did not want to light the screen, but now it does. I've got to hook it up to a signal to see if it gets through but it looks like it should. Does have an issue. I think the high voltage connections need cleaning. The screen likes to flip around as it's making high voltage sounding arcs and squeal's. Also has THAT smell. Don't know how to explain it. The smell of arcing Well, eventually I should recap this. It's chock full of them white plastic cased capacitor's. They all physically still look good, but IDK... Does anyone have the schematic for this set? model: UP111OC Chassis: C21A10-1C |
