Panasonic TR-535 pop up 5 inch TV/AM/FM radio

[centralradio]

Update on the pop up set..As I was going through the set the other day I happen to find a broken AM/FM/TV switch .So I had to rebuilt the switch and the set is working fine.......

It was a nightmare taking the AM/FM PC board out of its framework but it was worth the time that the TV shop where I got this set did not bother with it..No money in repairing these small sets at a shop those days as we know..

Thanks Zeno for the offer..I'll keep you in my mind for manuals..

Glad you got it going. When working on older Pannys remember the red screws. They are the ones that let you get at things. A very nice serviceability
touch. Taking out other screws has to be done with care or you can dump
a dial cord etc. Some other brands used arrows.

Thanks again for info Zeno..Yes the classic red screws.Yes I did tape the dial cord down before I remove the PC board.Strange dial system in this TV/Radio as it has stationary dial pointer and the station freq numbers move when tuning in stations. .The plastic switch piece was broke in two and I crazy glue it back into one piece.I was lucky it was a clean break as somebody must of whack it with something and broke it..Since it was easy to take the switch apart from the top instead of finding my desoldering equip to unsoldering it altogether..Love the modular plug in boards in Panasonic equip..Lastly I had to make a few adjustments with pop up mechanism .
