I agree with others your face/body view insert makes the channel more personable, hope you keep doing it! 73 - Dino KLØS

You know I very seldom do that as I want to video to be about the content and not me, however it does seem to work so more of that to come.

@pierrelataillade7564 Год назад

Well Buddy.... didn't expected this repair today.... but it was well received thanks for the show.... thank you...

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Much appreciated Pierre

@alandrury9955 Год назад

Thanks for the masterclass on the ball drive

@TheRadioShop Год назад

You are welcome. Sometimes the simple stuff means the most.

@scottlee1211 Год назад

Thanks Buddy! These are time consuming repairs requiring a lot of patience!! Thanks for the videos!!

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Appreciate the comment Scott

Coming along Buddy. This series of videos bring back memories. My First Ham radio was the Yaesu FT 101EX. I loved that radio. It went with me from Florida to Alaska where I went to collage. They were built like a tank. Thanks for the videos. 73 Joe

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thanks Joe, these were built to last. Remarkable rigs.

@extreme978 Год назад

I love it! The face insert was great

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Glad you enjoyed that.

@tommybewick Год назад

Great job! I really like the little picture at the bottom with you in the video!

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thanks, glad you like it.

I'm hoping that soon you can get to the Heathkit HW-101 series so I can enjoy more of these tube radios. I have 2 of them plus a SB-102 parts chassis that I eventually want to get going. Love the videos as always and can't wait to see more. Just wish Mike from MikesRadioRepair would come back on. I miss his videos. Watch Peter on TRX Bench but he doesn't put as many as before. Seems like life just has a way to interfere. Keep 'em coming and I will watch. 73, ad0am

@michaelmiller641 Год назад

Wonderful to watch! Thanks for that

@TheRadioShop Год назад

and thank you for watching

@hestheMaster Год назад

Always great to see another video from you Buddy.

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thanks for watching my friend

@w.rustylane5650 Год назад

I love your new look with you talking in the insert at the lower right. Very nice, Buddy. That's another thing I like about your work, you mark the piece to return it to the same position. Doesn't the contact cleaner remove your marks? Once again I look forward to videos from you. Keep the videos coming. I do read your comments on TRX Labs. If you're working on a piece of Ham gear, I'm watching. Cheers & 73 from W Rusty Lane K9POW in eastern Tennessee

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thanks for the nice comment my friend. Yes that is true with what you said about the marker washing off with the contact cleaner. However, it leaves two nicely etched spots where the ink was so it is still visible, I love Peters videos.

@Joe_HamRadioGuy Год назад

I always liked them older radios. That's going to be almost a new radio when you're done with it. Good job and love the overlay in the video with you explaining on camera what ya doing and what's going on with it. 👍🏻👍🏻

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Glad you like it Joe. This radio is coming along quite nicely

@peterharband326 Год назад

Looking good Buddy.

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thanks Peter

@cuban9splat Год назад

Excellent work Buddy. It sure brings back memories. You need to find an FL-101B amplifier for your collection. I would love to see a video of restoring one of them. Thanks again for sharing your expertise with us. 73 de K7RMJ Frank

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Be nice to find one Frank, but most of them was transformed into mono banders I am afraid. Thanks

@mariofilippi3539 Год назад

Another of many enjoyable videos Buddy, thanks.

@TheRadioShop Год назад

And thank you

@chrissmith7655 Год назад

Hi , great stuff, always look forward to your old rig projects. Half way through a TS-830 here, but struggling a little haha. Many thanks from UK.

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Cool deal on the 830, keep plugging at it. I am sure you will win. Thanks

@cajuncoinhunter Год назад

I always said they got the idea of that ball drive from Briggs & Stratton ...... Great video Buddy I wish I still had my Yaesu 101 E .... Take Care Mon Ami ......

@TheRadioShop Год назад

I think you have a point there lol. B&S has been around a long time.

Great tuning drive fix, nice job Buddy.

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thanks Bill

@lylewatts6370 Год назад

Ok another project I have to do. My FT-101 VFO is very stiff and there is the fix. Thanks buddy and I will get to work on that one soon. Wonder if the FT-102 has the same system?

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thanks Lyle. Yes the 102 has a similar drive.

@KA5IVR Год назад

Buddy, Thanks for the detailed video on this. One of my 101's VFO does the same thing with that slow spot as you turn. Could you maybe slow a detail video on Cleaning the Band Switch and others with the Deoxit spray? Seems most of the videos, that part is edited out. 73 de KA5IVR

@TheRadioShop Год назад

I sure will. There is a trick to it, you cannot let the cleaner soak into the material.

@henkw1562 Год назад

Very nice work on this radio Buddy. I wonder could you help me out with the dimensions of the extender boards for these radio's? Thanks in advance and keep up the good work. Best regards

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Give me a email, you can find it under the show more tab

@richardcook4643 Год назад

Thanks for the video Buddy. Where can you find the 1000 volt 83 pf caps. All I can find is 500 volt. Thanks

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Thank you. DigiKey, Mouser, and I think RF Parts has them.

@Mr2316969 Год назад

I have parts for a FT101E if you want the parts, let me know. I like your videos

@TheRadioShop Год назад

May be interested. Look for the link under the show more tab and contact me when you have time.

Is any way you can do a video on properly tuning the pre selector coils alignment? T-101, T102, T103?

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Working on this. Videos on Patreon then coming to YT

@bblod4896 Год назад

If you dial in a station until it sounds good, what is the value of having a clarifier?

@TheRadioShop Год назад

Good question! Not all rigs are tuned a like. Sometimes you will find someone that tunes to your frequency but souds off to you. The clarifier on the 101 acts more like a RIT.
