Checking the Power Supply - Tube Radio Restoration Back to Basics part 2 #pcbway#

Only $5 for 10 PCBs and every new member get $5 bonus. + Express 24 hour / 48 hour service on https://www.pcbway.com/ ➠ ➠ ➠ In this, the second video in my 'Back to Basics' series, I tackle the power supply, starting at the absolute origin of all power, the mains inlet, through the switching, the transformer, and the selenium rectifier. Some of my previously presented tricks are shown here, especially as regards testing the power transformer safely without connecting it to the mains, as well as replacing the selenium rectifier with silicon diodes. I am taking it slow, as that is what many viewers have asked me to do, so I hope you get some useful insight from these videos. I hope you enjoy the series, and invite you to comment. 🎥 Other videos in this series: ■ Back to Basics 1 - Tube Radio Anatomy:    • The Parts That Make Up a Tube Radio - Tube...   ■ Back to Basics 2 - Tube Radio Anatomy:    • Checking the Power Supply - Tube Radio Res...   ■ Back to Basics 3- Follow the B+:    • How to Check the B+ Safely - Tube Radio Re...   🙏 Want to support the channel? ●●●●●●   / mcaldeira   https://paypal.me/macaldeira #tuberadios #antiqueradio #radiorestoration ●●●● HUNDREDS OF OTHER VIDEOS TO CHOOSE FROM ●●●● ✿ DIY TEST GEAR: The title says it all:    • Zener Diode Tester - Part 1. The build.   ✿ RESTORATION BUILDING BLOCKS: A series of videos showing detailed steps used the restoration process of tube equipment:    • How to safely check the Power Transformer ...   ✿ HowTo's: Various videos on some simple techniques and projects:    • Extend tube radio FM band above 100MHz wit...   ✿ DIY CAPACITOR LEAKAGE TESTER PROJECT: One of the most viewed projects on my channel, with full design description and build instructions.    • Capacitor leakage tester design & build DI...   ✿ DIY TUBE TESTER PROJECT: Complete design description and build instructions for this really handy device.    • DIY Tube Tester. Working on Power Supply o...   ●●●● Plus full Playlists on some other completed restoration projects on this Channel ●●●● 📻 PHILIPS BX750A:    • Philips BX750A tube radio restoration - Pa...   📻 TELEFUNKEN OPUS 2114:    • Telefunken Opus 2114 stereo tube radio res...   📻 SABA UW-175-Z 3D:    • Saba UW 175-Z 3D tube radio restoration - ...   📻 GRUNDIG 1070:    • Grundig 1070 tube radio restoration - Part...   📻 SCHAUB-LORENZ GOLDY 58 type 3020:    • Schaub-Lorenz Goldy 58 type 3020 tube radi...   📻 BUSH VHF64:    • Bush VHF64 tube radio restoration - Part 1...   📻 GRUNDIG 3060A:    • Grundig 3060a tube radio restoration - Par...   📻 TELEFUNKEN OPERETTE 8:    • Telefunken Operette 8 tube radio restorati...   📻 GRAETZ SUPER 171W:    • Graetz Super 171W tube radio restoration -...   📻 LOEWE-OPTA MAGNET 3737W:    • Loewe-Opta Magnet 3737W tube radio restora...   📻 BRAUN ATELIER 3:    • Braun Atelier 3   📻 LOEWE-OPTA TRUXA STEREO 4741W:    • Loewe-Opta Truxa Stereo 4741W   📻 GRAETZ COMEDIA 616:    • Graetz Comedia 616 tube radio restoration ...   📻 SABA FREIBURG W2:    • Saba Freiburg W2 (WII) restoration   📻 GRAETZ MUSICA 4R417:    • Graetz Musica 4R417 restoration
