i'm in my early sixties now Don, and seeing those transistor radios brings back happy, carefree memories of the mid-to-late 1960s, as they usually do whenever I see pocket-size MW-only transistor radios of that era. Thank you for sharing Regards, Phil.

[@RestoreOldRadios]

+SteelCity321PB Phil - Glad to share them. Transistor Radios are not my cup of tea, but it was fun bringing it back to life. I got 2 more repaired with the Zenith still on the bench that I hope to look at soon. Best, Don

I'm inspired to fix a Radio Shack 3 channel weather radio from the 80's-early 90's. It uses an IC for audio amplification but the radio section is crystal/transistor. Had a bad battery leak. I have a second identical radio which works so that helps!

[@50sTransistorRadios]

Hey Don, thanks for mention! I would say that the Zenith Zenette is probably the most interesting model in that group, it's too bad that it has some serious corrosion issues though. The Continental is probably the second most interesting, and is likely from the mid 60's. That tuning mechanism on that SoundDesign radio is interesting, it gave the set the look of dial-string tuning, without the labor of stringing a dial (which is one of my least favorite radio repair tasks). Cold solder joints are a fairly common problem, especially on inexpensive radios that were produced overseas.

[@RestoreOldRadios]

+50sTransistorRadios Thanks for your reply Matt. I still have the Zenith to look at when time permits as I was telling others a personal issue came up that took priority over... Thanks again. BTW - JP... needs your advice too on an issue. Best, Don

I have been collecting radio for about 2 years. I’ve found that except for the early American made radios, the value is pretty much according to the owner or buyer. (Prices are just all over the place). Unfortunately I am not able to work on the radios myself, so I end up paying double for each radio, but what good is a nice looking radio if it’s not working? Every one collects differently. Every time I watch these,I learn a little bit more. 📻👍🙂‼️

[@Rebel9668]

When we were kids we went through a lot of those little pocket radios. Always got em from Radio Shack and would fall asleep at night listening to WAKY in Louisville on them. Of course the next morning the battery would be dead as a doornail and by the time we got more batteries we probably had new radios too, lol.

[@RestoreOldRadios]

I don’t have a schematic for the radio, but one could start by replacing all of the vintage electrolytic capacitors and test all resistors to ensure they are in tolerance. In addition, a close inspection of the circuit board to ensure there are no cold solder joints, which is common. Hope this helps and all the best. Don

[@nathanpost9920]

The antenna's feel loose and there is a screw to turn but it doesn't really do much. My old Sony is so much superior to my newer one. The sound quality is much better. So I would like to keep using it, but the antenna is out of control. It finally fell out the other day.

[@RestoreOldRadios]

Hate that about the antenna falling out. I've got a few loose loop stick antennas in some of my transistor sets too. Thanks for watching. Best, Don

[@TheRadioShop]

Great repair! Seems everyone I get is either a broken solder connection of board.

[@RestoreOldRadios]

+The Radio Shop I can see that looking at the circuit boards up close. I repaired two more of them; one bad cap and the other was a cold solder joint on one of the antenna leads. Do you use a microscope or other... to exam and make repairs on those delicate boards? Best, Don

Hi Don. Yes I have a AmScope microscope that I use to inspect boards with. It really helps in finding those bas solder joints and cracks in the boards. Great job on getting those old radios back together.

And nothing is no better than repairing a vintage unit with vintage test gear. Every time I set down at my new bench with all the old Eico gear it is like stepping back 30 to 40 years ago. So I guess you can say I have my own time machine :) All the best to you my friend.

Hi. I have a 67 plymouth fury with an AM transitor radio that doesn't work. I get a constant quiet hum or buzzing with it on, and I get a crackle when I move the lead off and on the speaker. Where should I start with it?

[@RestoreOldRadios]

It sounds like the power supply section make be faulty, but it’s hard to say. Check your grounding, antenna connection and double check your speaker connections again as well. Good luck on the repair. Best, Don

[@hgpo27]

@@RestoreOldRadios Pulled the radio out and hooked it up to a battery and have my speaker and antenna hooked up. Without antenna if I put my ear to the speaker I get a very faint static. With the antenna plugged in I can hear a very faint tone being generated. Connections inside the radio all seem to be there. There are two bigger transformers in the radio. Once where the power leads come in and another by the antenna. Not sure where to test and what I should be reading

[@hgpo27]

One of the speaker wires goes into what I think is a large resistor or maybe something else. It is cracked and when the radio is on it is very hot to the touch

[@RestoreOldRadios]

@@hgpo27 I hate it’s dead. It could be one of the electrolytic capacitors in the power supply circuit, and again it could be a host of other things. If you can access the printed circuit board, do a visual inspection of circuit board traces to ensure you don’t see an issue. Best, Don

Good video, thank you for posting. I have an early 70's AM/FM Zenith transistor table top. The entire FM band works great and the upper AM band from 800khz to 1600KHZ works great, but the lower AM band 550khz to 800khz receives nothing. Would you have any ideas on what could be possible causes for the lower AM band not working?

[@RestoreOldRadios]

Jason - it sounds like the oscillator is not operational at the lower frequencies. If you have another portable AM radio, try placing it right beside your Zenith near the antenna and assuming the Zenith radio has an I.F. Frequency of 455 kHz, tune the portable radio to 455 kHz above the local station and you should be able to hear the LO. An example, if you have a local station at 600 kHz, tune the Zenith to that frequency and the portable set to 1055 kHz to confirm the LO is working. If the LO is not working, your trouble would be in and around the oscillator circuit. Hope this helps. Best, Don

I was looking at the dial on the AM radio being worked on, and I couldn't help but notice what appeared to be some small triangles. I know they're not CONELRAD markings, as this receiver came off the assembly line many, many years after 1963 when that federal program was discontinued.

[@chetpomeroy1399]

@@RestoreOldRadios CONELRAD is a contraction of CONtrol of ELectromagnetic RADiation. It was the result of what I believe to have been an executive order by President Eisenhower requiring all AM radios made between 1953-63 to have those special markings on their dials, requiring all commercial radio stations to cease operations, and change their signals to those two frequencies on very low power, in the event of Soviet Bomber attacks. This was intended to prevent the Soviets from homing in on AM radio signals to attack U.S. cities, as the Japanese military did in 1941.
