Unboxing Transistor Radios Live

[@franklynpolster8949]

I will watch anything you produce. I love the fixing, the personality, attitude, the skill. You have a great ability. Glad you are using your talents in car smog repair also. The mine videos scare and fascinate me.

[@falcon63191]

I've learned a great deal from you Mr. Shango. We've communicated before, and I would like to say thank you once again. I enjoy fixing radios myself, but I didn't know too much about going about repairing them. Ten years later, I'm selling my repaired radios and the skills I've learned from people like you.

[@rogeruren8375]

you are funny i am proud of you for repairing old electronics keep up the good work

[@shango066]

Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you found it entertaining.I'm just trying to share my passion with the world!

[@chetpomeroy1399]

If one really wanted to, take a wooden embroidery hoop, coil some magnet wire around it and hook up a variable capacitor in parallel with the coil, and "presto," you'll have a home made tune-able AM antenna.

[@Desert-edDave]

Fantastic video, is a treat, well done. Thanks for the content, one of my favorite KZbinrs by far, been subbed for years, always a fun time and informative.

[@hestheMaster]

Volunteer cabin vintage transistor unboxing done in the Mojave desert north of Baker, CA. Love the "There will be a $5 charge..." sign next to the American flag . That Silvertone radio model 4217 at 57:35 in looks awesome. Great radio from 1964. The 132.xxxxx prefix for Sears chassis is Arvin/Norblitt Sparks.

[@Spentelectrons]

You know what's better then screw turning not edited out, is them spending an extra couple hours editing screw turning in.

[@soulrobotics]

Yes, Phil Collins is one of the best repairmen I've seen on KZbin!

[@quantumleap359]

The guys who sent these radios pack well! I wish some of the stuff I've gotten from Ebay was packed this carefully. Long video, but hey, it's Shango!

[@brainndamage]

do more livestreams, I like it. The iraqi radios can probably be aligned to work properly, pretty sure they're just misaligned a lot

[@cipherthedemonlord8057]

Definitely do more of these.

[@horseathalt7308]

As soon as a shango066 video shows up in my list I click!

[@aarongunter5582]

I have been watching you channel from day one

[@Antony_Jenner]

"I can feel it coming in the air tonight." Or should I say. Mend it Mark, fixed it in his shed last night.🎶🎶🎶🎶 Nice one Shango! Merry Christmass and a Happy New Year to you.

[@hadibq]

oh snap, I missed this live... I love MendItMark channel and I'm happy that he also has a strong and quality community as with Shango066 ❤❤

[@johnnoland4249]

Life was so much simpler when they didn't advertise medicines and did advertise cigarettes and liquor on TV.

[@ericrawson2909]

Cigarettes and liquor are less harmful.

[@magomat6756]

This was nice a live stream 👌

[@triodehexode]

Mend it mark great in-depth repairs of more modern stuff. Nice gentle accurate critic of expensive audiophile equipment. Phill Collins 😂

[@romjone4801]

Hi Shango. I enjoy your videos.

[@markmarkofkane8167]

There's plenty of freedom. Just certain kinds. Especially if it's profitable. Very interesting show!

[@JerryEricsson]

While this was going on, the last two Beetles got together for a bit of Helter Skelter in London. Wish I could have been there to see that.

[@fostercathead]

I found this video to be informative and entertaining.

[@angrydove4067]

Ok, I caught the last 4 minutes live but at least can watch it later. Cool.

[@GHDGypsy]

excellent thank yyooouuu

[@bigliftm]

awwh just noticed 5 hours late you was life... how i would love to have a DX qso with you. 🙏🙏 get your ham radio licence unca shango. would love to hear you on the airwaves.

[@defaultuserid1559]

Those Terk and Select-A-Tenna loops work great on radios that don't have good reception. A hot radio properly aligned won't notice much improvement. I have both and the Select-A-Tenna is better but awkward to use. I use the Terk to cut down on noise from the crummy AC around here. The Terk dial is hard to read but well made.

Philadelphia, Cool 😎 Dude 😎.

[@bsekisser]

I do cars... Yessir!

[@johnnoland4249]

Overheard in a Lafayette radio Hi fi section, "I'll take this one, It's got more knobs on it.".

[@dasautoshoppe6932]

Hey Dan. Checking in from Knoxville, tn, both myself and Peter!

[@blackvinylgrooves]

Hey Shango, I live in New Mexico. Been following you for years. Have a similar group of old radios, I would love to send you. These are old transistor radios, 1950s-1970s. Some are working, some are not. How might I send these to you?

[@steveoszman8746]

You the man, too funny.

[@therabbitchannel2059]

The T.O. has a great antenna so it won't benefit much from the loop. Loops are good for radios with small ferrites.

[@neutralobservation9418]

Hello Shango. Hello everyone.

[@pyeltd.5457]

Black and White CRT TVs are my thing over Colour sets. Can be from 1960s to 1989/1990.

[@angrydove4067]

O.M.G.S stands for Oh My Gawd Shango!

[@55benchguy]

Still love the transoceanic !

[@townhall05446]

Writing 'Do Not Crush' on a package you send someone is really, really asking for trouble. The green tape on the GE radio was not a good idea.

[@KongKingman]

“Retired USPS” worker here, saw it all!

[@neutralobservation9418]

Is there a Zenith System 3 in that pile?

[@0815germany]

[@jcurnutte2007]

Mickey Mouse is in the public domain now

[@williammitchem8274]

Wow, you weren't kidding ....

[@overbuiltautomotive1299]

Great video as normal neat stuff whats with gloves not wanting to touch all the old radios i guess you get used to them i hate the feeling of rubber gloves it sucks hand condom lol ?.i wonder if he were them in the store i got into gross stuff in a store people smearing something what ah who knows but i digress

[@angrydove4067]

Just what is Mickey looking at?

[@jerrycvek6098]

So how Manny Transistor Radios do You have? 10,000? 50,000? or less then that?

[@0815germany]

regards from Germany 👋🫶

Starlink is going to be huge. So simple to setup, no cables to install, no roads to dig up. Internet access is going to be a doddle everywhere. A lot of big suppliers are going to disappear if cable installation is their main source of revenue. (That means Openreach - in the UK and all other nations that have that sort of monopoly) Unless meteorological, solar winds or aircraft/drone interference becomes a thing. Or just the amount of user bandwidth demand degrades the performance somehow. Just another environment/supply and demand challenge for a huge business venture.. roll the dice.. As of September 2024 6,426 Starlink satellites, of which 6,371 are working. The total number of Starlink satellites launched so far is 7,213, with 6,554 still in orbit and 6,499 remaining functional. A Starlink satellite has a lifespan of approximately five years and SpaceX eventually hopes to have as many as 42,000 satellites in this so-called megaconstellation. I'm thinking that may solve global warming or at least make the sky seem darker.

[@ericrawson2909]

Let's see what the next Carrington event does to it.

[@radio-ged4626]

🤞

[@edwardallan197]

All too obsessively neat & orderly. I did not hear any mixed screws or battery covers hit the floor. 😅

[@tomtke7351]
