Power Supply for German WW2 Military Radio.

I show how I build a power supply for the old WW2 radios.

Vilken fantstisk aktivering Helge! Alltid lika kul att ser på dina videos. 73 från Dalarna

That’s not a Militärradio. That’s a Funkgerät but thank You for You efforts! Greetings from an ex Signal officer from Linz Austria 🇦🇹 Europe!

[@ForgotMyParachute]

What a load of ice. Great location and operating. Just needed some Reindeer to appear.

[@Coheteradio]

Thanks for share these beautiful radios and amazing outdoor locations. 73.

[@LA6NCA]

Thank you for your nice comment.

[@rafantini8]

Very impressive! Anyone who takes these old sets out into the field and operates them has my respect. You da man.

[@xv1379]

Helge you breathed a new life in this fantastic receiver with the psu! Very professional and well done. Amazing to see the great sensitivity of 0,2 microvolts and frequency accuracy after all these years! Many thanks for sharing!

[@LA6NCA]

Thanks for your nice comment. It's a lot of fun getting these old radios working.

[@RonanCantwell]

Fantastic work, as always Helge. Thanks for sharing these amazing radios 👍

[@LA6NCA]

Thanks for the comment.

[@FrankSorrento]

Another excellent video, great work and thanks for sharing

[@eggolus8642]

Great job Helge! With your brilliant technical knowledge, skills and experience no device can withstand, to get in operation again. This reminds me, to get my restored 15WSEb again on the air into operation. Maybe hear you on the bands - 73 Peter DK8AF

[@LA6NCA]

Yes 15WSEb is a fantastic radio. I can easily reach Germany with mine.

[@rádiosantigos1958]

What a great job! Congrats!

[@gamlemann53]

Takk for en flott oppvisning av OLD radioteknologi Helge! Hilsen LB1NH 🙂

[@ElectromagneticUK]

Nice informative video and good clear QSO's. Looks like you needed a sleigh this time. Many thanks.

[@LA6NCA]

Thanks for the comment.

[@YRadioY]

Amazing operating conditions. Hope heat from valves does not melt the ice and the radio disappears. Take care.

[@ww2historyandreenacting]

Tusen takk for nok en veldig flott og interessant video Helge! Utrolig mye flott utstyr du har i samlingen din! Takk for at du deler din kunnskap med oss! Beste hilsener fra Sørlandet 😊

[@LA6NCA]

Takk for at du skriver kommentar her. Flott å høre at du liker den.

[@ww2historyandreenacting]

@LA6NCA bare hyggelig! 😊 Har en del tysk sambandsutstyr selv, men har ikke så mye kompetanse på området, så dine videoer er virkelig en gullgruve for informasjon 😊

[@ralfkruse7565]

Hi Helge, I thought a chinese Switch mode power supply, he will get problems. But you resolved them. Good screening and filtering is all!😊

[@LA6NCA]

Yes, and the result was very good.

[@salve-amicus]

Perfectly job as usually. Take care

[@dennisgarrison721]

Always enjoy and look for your videos, Helge. Hope to work you someday on the bands. Dennis AJ0L in Missouri, USA.

[@fredbos5997]

Fint gjort Helge. Kunnskapen har du! 73, Fred

[@edd2241]

Absolutely a good job, 73 Eddi

I have never worked with vaccum tubes and never had a chance to repair any ancient vaccum tube devices .

[@joeblow8593]

Thanks

Hello Helke. About this module which seems excellent. One have to know that HT current is limited to 50 mA. Other modules (without LT regulation) can deliver more current and modules reducing 12V to 6,3 V are very cheap. Adding a large capacitor as you did is very efficient for LT. For HT, regulating voltage and filtering (described in your videos!!!) are also excellent. Another trick: some Chinese 5V from 220V supplies give an enormous QRM so it is impossible to use them for an ARDUINO which resets continuously! I discovered (by chance) that connecting a 220 nF from 5V output to GROUND input solves the problem. Why 220 nF capacitor? Because I had some ones with long legs and they worked immediately!

Thanks for your nice thoughts on power. I was on your QTZ page and saw you had some nice agent radios there. I will come with an agent radio video soon. 73 de LA6NCA

[@williammitchem8274]

Fantastic!

[@Ea5hyw]

Buen trabajo!! 73.

[@Aikaramba12]

Snakker du engelsk? Hadde økt kvaliteten betraktelig med noe annet enn datagenerert stemme 😊 ikke at det er så farlig da. Fantastiske videoer

[@LA6NCA]

Takk for at du likte dem. Jeg kunne vel snakke engelsk, men ikke så bra som denne damen.

[@sujitsingh7446]

Do you communicate world wide with your radios ?

[@LA6NCA]

This radio operates on the lower part of shortwave. I would say the range on this one is from Norway to all of northern Europe. Other of my WW2 radios can cover the whole world.

[@IZ1FIDmilitaryradio]

Well done! 73 de Federico IZ1FID

[@janpaulissen559]

It must be a radio with a VT22 5-pins tube.....

[@davidfhadley1]

Nice Job! KA1OLA

[@DE-ke2rf]

Great work! I am trying to design a 24V DC power supply for a US Army radio amplified speaker. BTW What are the frequency ranges on those radios?

[@LA6NCA]

The radio I used outside is for 80 meters ham band.
