It would be cool if you would show what the things sound like before the repair and after to see the difference in how it reacts and how that effects the sound.

I watched the whole video in one sitting. I didn't start to eat breakfast until it finished. I learned my electronics in the 60's. It so good to see that old parts and vacuum tubes still serve a purpose today. Although my theory has become somewhat rusty this is a wonderful refresher and tutorial. It was great as to how you built the power supply section by section and explained each part in detail, showing component selection and target voltage and current measurements. I'm amazed that you were able to pick out parts from an era gone by. While components may be old, they are still functional and serve a purpose to this day. The fact that you can get such fine regulation with old vacuum tubes is a testament to that. I'm a long time ham. But as I age (73), I have to keep refreshing my memory by watching your videos and reading circuit theory online and books on the subject. I can't wait until you put everything together on a chassis. From watching your videos I know how you never do anything shotty or half way especially from watching your antique restorations. I'm amazed at how you bring them back to life, looking like new and probably working better than new. Keep up the good work. God bless you. Ed, KA2AHE

Mr. C builds a radio power supply. The rest of us are unknowingly partaking of a college-level applied lecture in electronics fundamentals. This is what KZbin was built for. 👍 Two hours of video brings many, many thoughts, but chief among them: -If we're going for a cool-looking power supply, perhaps consider sneaking a neon lamp behind the 5R4, so it also glows as brightly as its contemporaries. We could use LEDs on that 5v or 6v winding, but we're keeping this old-school, correct? If we need an excuse for the neon to be functional, perhaps it could also help clamp that initial voltage surge. -Any cool-looking power supply needs a current meter next to the jewel light, right? We gotta know how much power that speaker is (or those headphones are) pulling. 😁 -If this radio is as hackable as you say it is, this viewer wouldn't mind a detour from the Restoration Series to see some nifty things a surplus BC-348 could do. Probably easier for you to do while it's already on the bench. Or, if such a detour causes an outcry, we could revisit this later. Thanks Paul!

Mr. Carlson hi I really enjoy your expertise. I probably enjoy it more than most. I was born in 1937 at age 14 I started building power supplies and repair and radios that my dad would bring home. Charge a dollar labor plus parts and those days tubes were around $1.20 wholesale I would charge $2.40 retail. I am also a ham radio operator since 1966. I build and design lots of different things . The reason I am telling you this there were many of us that worked on radios and those days. I still enjoy the hobby today and many of the things you work on are extremely interesting. So keep up the good work you are one of a kind. Jerry

I am amazed at the speed you did this, and getting such a precise approach to the target values! I am never going to make anything like this myself, though in other ways I am handy. I made a beautifully functional sofa bed for a home converted camper van that used to be a mini-bus on Thursday, entirely out of reclaimed wood. The only new material was a pair of clips to hold it extended or folded in, and a considerable number of wood screws! Total cost of new parts was less than UK£10. I really enjoy watching the work of not just a craftsman as much as an artist! I hope you do not mind writing that. Best wishes from George

I have kept up the hobby as a user but not so much as a repairman for about 20 plus years. So this brings back all those wonderful memories of those fun times and smells. I almost wish I lived down the street from you just to hang out and pick your brain and maybe tickle a few of those old tubes again, I am a HAM operator and because of you I am starting to gather older test gear again to start digging into that wonderful hobby of building and tinkering.

type Back in the late 60's, I built a very similar power supply for a ham operator for his AM transmitter. Some of the tubes were the metal tube type as you could still get a lot of military surplus rather cheaply. I started learning vacuum tube electronics when I was about 11. Built and repaired a lot of tube gear. Even had an FCC 1st Class license for a number of years. Ended up getting into IT and after I retired from that, I taught computer science classes at the local college for 10 years. Your channel brings back a lot of memories.

My dad built an external power supply for his Signal Corps BC-312-M as a teenager, back in the 40's. He let me listen to it as a teen myself. One day, the power supply failed, and I never heard that radio again. Now, I have a few BC-348s, some with issues. One is recapped and has a home brew external power supply. That one is having audio issues. I find your series very helpful. 73 Paul AA1SU

The only change I would make to your power supply layout is that I would put a cage over it to keep my cats from climbing on it and touching the hot tubes. I liked guessing along with the parts picking and was surprised how close I got to the actual values. I don't consider myself to be very smart, I'm just a peasant who has been tinkering for 52 years and learnt many things the hard way! Never try to wipe off a CRT to get a better look at the numbers. I was replacing a picture tube in grandma's tv when I was 15. I heard the little "tick" then things got a bit fuzzy for a few seconds.

In the early days of HAM radio, operators very soon began building stuff the way you are here. I recall seeing a home built chassis that used a cake pan for the metal. They were going through a depression at that time and had to use what they could afford. I'm sure yours will look awesome, and be just what you're looking for, however my taste would be to make it look authentic the way you would have seen it sitting on a bench in the shack way back in the day. Very well done and interesting video Paul. It's well worth the money spent to keep you rolling, not to mention that I learn a lot from the patreon stuff you feed us. Well done my friend.

This was tons of fun to watch, and try to guess what you were going to use, before you said what you were going to use. I I love the idea of the open chassis, the only other option might be is a box with lots of small holes or mesh at the top, again so you can see the tubes. As far as the colors, gloss black on the transformers maybe to a point where they could reflect the light from the tubes, and either the same gloss black on the chassis, or highly polished chassis, again to reflect the light from the tubes. The jewel indicator sounds good too, as long as it isn't too bright and overpowers the tubes. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

I did something similar to this for a audio amp I'd built, had to take the inductor out due to it causing a worble noise at around 11 htz coming from the supply! Figured the core had gone into saturation mode. Placing a resistor in place fixed it. Took a while to understand this problem. Amp is very quite. Found this interesting watching you test your supply. I try to catch your videos when they come out. All very interesting.

Outstanding video. I especially liked the test lead hook ups - done that myself many times and always thought I was being a bit of a hack doing it. Turns out, I'm not!! Thanks for the content. Keep up the great work

Thanks Paul - I really enjoyed watching this from beginning to end. I used to go to a radio society back in the early 80's as a kid and had some exposure to valve electronics at the time - although very little since then (actually zero) - this was really interesting, thanks! When the motorcycle went past I thought it was passing on a road close to my office / shack :) I had to do a slight rewind because your comment about it being loud took me aback :) 73 de M0SNR
