My first roundie!

First:

Ok... Last saturday I went to Germany for buy something at Ham-Radio Friedrichshafen fair

http://www.hamradio-friedrichshafen.de/ham-en/index.php

For start I buyed two radio (Saba Wildbad 11 and Grundig 196W) and a 1928 Loewe loudspeaker.
With my surprise, I see an old Sachsenwerk Rembrandt FE852E with roundie CRT! It's my first roundie TV

It uses 23 tubes, many of these are DDR variant of common USA tubes like 6V6 or 5Z4. The seller also gave me a spare CRT, because the original was gassy. I've already mounted on the set and soon I will start to restore it

Very good looking set!
Would that CRT be the equivalent to our 10BP4?

What an attractive television! I am curious to see the schematic. Can you upload it or post it elsewhere for others to view? Not everyone is a member of radiomuseum.org.

Regards,

Phil Nelson

Congratulations on your first roundie! Great looking little set, don't you just love it when you find something really cool like this without looking for it. It's always a nice surprise.

Thank you guys

Unfortunately I have not managed to find the schematic, I am not a RadioMuseum member and I hope to find it on some website.

Having already replaced the CRT, I can say that it is built like a tank! Very heavy and strong, although it is not very big. I hope to begin soon the restoration.

The Saba Wildbad 11 is my first Saba, I don't know how they sound (I think good). I have several Grundig (models 196, 4055, 4088 and 5088), two Loewe (Venus Luxus 2791 and Hellas 2841) and a Graetz Sinfonia 522. Graetz rulez.

You'll like the Saba-I have a '53 model-Can't remember the name right now-But after going to see Terry & getting re-capped, it does DANDY. I have a Telefunken & a Grundig as well, & all of 'em are VERY good performers.

Just remembered-Friedburg 3. And scoring a GDR TV- You may be the only one of us here w/a RARE byrd like that...Congrats !! Ya done GREAT !!

Yes, Saba was great. They made everything themselve also the wire isolations and the loudspeakers. There is a very nice Saba commercial on youtube. Unfortunately it is available only in german language. Enjoy:
