I had an old reel to reel tape deck that had a tube like that for the volume/level indicator rather than a needle gauge. This was in 1966 and it was d then. Pretty cool.
Sick, no way, we love you and this video... 🙂 One hour to warm up??? Could be weak tubes and weak filaments in the tube.. If the tubes were to test good, then the Voltage used to heat the filaments could be low.. You are going from 120 volts to 220 volts??? Is the output of that step up transformer 220 volts Under Load.. What is the amperage rating of the step-up and what is the draw from the radio???
@@myradiovideos the seller told me it was a 240volt power supply. You can read the power output on the red converter I am using in the first 2 videos. I think it says 234 volts out while in use. Is 6 volts low enough to make a problem?
@@dieselten01 6 volts should be ok. But 1 hour warm up is not correct IMHO . But it is what it is. BTW if the radio is off what does the output voltage read??
