We were paying television licence fees in New Zealand right up until 1999! I recall one time in approx 1990/91ish being "caught" by the inspector person who knocked on the door claiming the household had an operating TV but no licence for it... at the time there were kids using it with a home computer attached to it. As it happens the TV had been modified to accept a (from memory, a composite signal) different video input and we claimed it wasn't a TV at all but simply used as a computer monitor. We were exempted from paying the TV licence!

Using detergent was something that cured 100% (IMHO) of Tektronix 465's we had in the lab back in 77 to 82, when I left the bench. Am not sure, but the atmosphere when they were in the foundry had too high flux that layed down and got noisy in a couple of years, all the front panel knobs would be noisy, you had to flick them to get a few minutes noise free operation. This affected hundreds of 465's. Can't believe no one has mentioned this before anywhere, maybe they have. Speculate they were made in Channel Islands and the rest in the States. Beautiful Tektronix, a treat for every engineer to witness when they open them up, beautiful !

@andydelle4509 5 лет назад

Important to note that in the United States, reception of "public airwave" has always been license free. I'm not an expert on these specific FCC rules but I think at least at one time, monitoring police and aircraft bands was illegal yet I doubt that was ever enforced? I do know they also used this "public airwaves" law to go after early backyard satellite dishes as well as bootleg MDS 2500mhz microwave antennas used for pay TV in the early 1980s as those legally were not "public" transmissions. Of course that too was impossible to enforce so signal scrambling quickly solved that problem.

@alakani 5 лет назад

Oh boy, those were fun times. Sharing codes, patching EPROMs... watching TV shows on the studio C-band downlinks a week or more before they were supposed to air. Then when the little dishes came out, the cat-and-mouse game with DAVE. My favorite trick was figuring out what CPU instructions were running on the smart cards in realtime by comparing current draw signatures to predetermined patterns. Then inducing voltage spikes or limiting current to change which bytes were being read from or written to RAM to just jump right over the key comparison. Then they added some randomization to the HU cards to prevent that... so on to learning chemistry to dissolve the plastic surrounding the die, and taking the thing to uni to watch it under the electron microscope. Then they finally started using real encryption with the P4 card, at the same time I turned 18 and moved from the east coast to California and became a party animal instead of worrying about that stuff. Or so I heard, I would never be involved in something like that :)

@SteveGunnfl 5 лет назад

I really enjoy your videos thank you for putting all the time and effort into sharing. I was an electronics engineer in my early career but sort of left it behind when I was 30, and now at 62 I'm really fascinated that I've found the bug again and slipped back into it so easily and find it so exciting... and surprisingly that not much has changed really.. I was reared on silicon, all those fires in bottles with scary voltages were too much for me but I find your explanations easy to understand thank you. You passion for the subject really comes across as does your attention to detail - both are quite addictive to watch and may I say I find your approach so refreshing especially at a time when finding the "quick fix" for everything seems to be the norm.

@BruceBoschek 5 лет назад

In Germany and most other European countries we have to pay tax on any receiver, whether radio or TV. Until just a few years ago those cars with directional antennas could be seen creeping around our streets looking for unlicensed receivers. The prices for TV were higher than for radio and since I have never in my 77 years owned a TV I only paid for the radio. The car would pass my house regularly because they did not want to believe that someone did not own a TV. I had a radio in my car, so I paid for that. A man came to my door one day and asked me what I thought about a TV show the evening before. I told him I did not own a TV and he acted like it was a joke. I asked him if he really felt like he benefited from watching the show he asked me about (soapbox stuff) and I finally sent him away. The problem is solved now. Everyone has to pay the tax whether they have a radio, TV or computer. Happy days. I had a B&W pre-selector with exchangeable coils running into my Hammarlund HQ 150 back in the day.

@MrCarlsonsLab 5 лет назад

Great story Bruce, thanks for taking the time to write!

@ian_b 5 лет назад

Here in the UK, the TV licence regime has ensured "detector vans" driving around for decades. With the end of analogue TV, they've just switched to sending endless threatening letters which assume you own a TV. Since I don't have a TV (I have the internet, what do I need a "television" for?) I get these letters all the time. Sometimes they knock on your door and demand to inspect your home, and then look sad when they cannot find a TV. It's got a lot worse since they privatised "revenue collection" and the inspectors work on a bounty system. A few years ago, after a disappointed inspector had marched around my house, as he was leaving I said I'd be round to his house later to look for illegal firearms. He didn't find the joke amusing. This is one of the things that made me into a libertarian.

@ProdigalPorcupine 5 лет назад

jaxxstraw - I think the consensus now is that those vans, at least here in the U.K., were nothing but dummies, driving around to scare people. I don’t know of a single conviction for tv licence evasion where technical evidence from the detector vans was used in court. Thinking about it, the technical hurdles of detecting, identifying and pinpointing the precise location of a leaking local oscillator signal, especially decades ago, would be considerable.

@ian_b 5 лет назад

@@ProdigalPorcupine I think maybe many of them were dummies, but the principle of detecting the flyback oscillator was sound. Probably easier in a suburb of detached houses (where people bought licenses) would be easier than a block of little flats or bedsits (where people would be more likely to evade) though :) I know this isn't a political channel, but I've always thought the whole principle of taxing a television (or a radio, in earlier times) is despicable, especially due to the intrusive regime required for enforcement. The BBC would love to just tax you at source for having an internet connection; me, I would just shut them down. They're an absurd anachronism in this day and age, even if having a state broadcaster made sense in the distant past (I don't think it ever did, personally).

Hello Mr Paul, amazing piece of equipment that can boost RF signal. I would love to ask if you have a to do list to build like this or TV signal booster in solid state at patreon? Thanks you so much for this episode. I really enjoyed watching specially during the alignment of the band.

@captlarry-3525 5 лет назад

Anybody who has ever worked on a half decent SW receiver will recognize this as the front end. Radios with no RF stage ( ant straight to mixer), or with wide band, or cheaply designed and built antenna and rf amp circuitry will benefit by the higher tuned Q, amplification and isolation a pre-selector/pre-amp can afford, provided distrubted gain is kept in balance. On the low bands, amplification may be the last thing a receiver needs to improve readability, which is a different animal than S meter readings. It is fun to make recievers that really suck on the high bands actually do something..especially if you can do it with something else that really sucks.

@IanSlothieRolfe 5 лет назад

Another approach to the knob alignment would be to rotate the switch/pot by the required amount if possible. you might have to drill another hole for the index pin on the control, but that might be quicker. Of course, in this case its possible that it might have involved disassembling too much, or cause clearance issues, because Mr Carlson usually finds the approach with least hassle! Great video!

@keithstudly6071 2 года назад

What I learned today! There is a Canadian pronunciation of Art Deco and Decal. Who would have ever guessed? I also learned that the Canadians went in for the the detector vans like the British did but I don't know if they used them to find unlicensed cats or not. I understand they could detect a purr at over 200 yards! Learned about the cat detector on Monty Python's Flying Circus so I know it's true.
