Hallo nochmal Peter. Ich habe 1993 einen TS-50 gekauft, um ihn an Bord eines Schiffes mitzunehmen. Ich war der Funkelektronikoffizier. Das Gerät wurde 4 Monate benutzt. Dann wieder in die Originalverpackung stecken, wenn ich zurückkomme. Nachdem ich dieses Video gesehen habe, habe ich Albträume von den Kondensatoren, die alle undicht sind! Ich werde es Sie wissen lassen, aber wie andere gesagt haben: „Sie haben die Geduld eines Heiligen, methodisch Schritt für Schritt vorzugehen! Frohe Weihnachten und ein frohes neues Jahr!

Hello Peter! Maybe this is a touchy question with repair techs like yourself, but I can't help but ask it: How do you keep from "losing your ass" on repairs such as these? I mean, the video was over an hour long, and you cut the video several times to remove boards, replace components, etc. So, you have got to have a number of hours involved in your labor. It would seem to me that there would be a point where the radio repair would not be cost effective to spend the labor and parts for the repair. I don't know what a 100% working TS-50S would cost, but unless the repair cost is minimal, maybe it would be better to spend that money on a new or newer radio. Is this more of a "labor of love" verses business as usual? Enjoyed the video and as always gave the thumbs up. 73, Dan
@MrCarlsonsLab8 жыл бұрын
+Beretta96Dan HI Dan. I think I could speak for quite a few youtubers at this point, (myself included.)The video time "just itself" makes the repair completely not worth doing from a monetary aspect. The payback is helping others learn. Just for example, in a troubleshooting and repair video, one hour of video time is one week of work (give or take a day) I'm pretty sure Peter's video time ratio is much the same. (we talk a lot) Very little of what I repair, design, or trouble shoot makes it to a video for this reason unfortunately.
@TheRadioShop8 жыл бұрын
+Beretta96Dan Dan, Paul is correct and I agree with what he said. A lot of times the repair out weighs the cost, so you can say it is the passion of doing the repair and helping others. Somewhere down the road someone will have this problem and when they search they will find this video.  Peters hours of research and troubleshooting now becomes a 30 minute fix for that person. The manufacture no longer repairs these and most forks like Clif Holland will not work on them due to unobtainable parts. This leaves folks like Peter, Paul and myself the challenge to repair them (although my videos are no ways a good as theirs) all because the love of the hobby. Some repairs I may have several days tied up in it just for the video.

+Beretta96Dan Hi Dan, yes well you already got all the answers from Paul and Buddy. We all try to find content which is interesting to everyone. And the repairs I show are most of the time radios which are still in the field and many times sold but very often quit support by the manufacturer due to it's age. Now we can give something back to the community and help others to learn.A short feed back like yours on our work is our pay. We can not live from that as it takes too much time to do a video like this as Paul already said. Let's call it ham spirit. During my scholastics and my fist job in development I got so much support and I just want to give back a little bit. There are so may things you can't find in a book and that is what we try to put through. That's it... Thanks for asking. All the best 73

I would like to ask if you are aware of the following failure: While I have perfect reception, when broadcasting there is no sufficient signal output, (no line appears on the screen), despite the excistence of indication. It is worth mentioning that this damage was caused while using the small emission scale (10W), and despite not communicating with my interlocutor for long periods of time. Finally, I will mention that while I did a RESET, the radio still transmits at a power of only a few mW. Thank you
