 What's up everybody? How we doing? I'm seeing a bunch of people in the chat today. I really appreciate y'all for showing up Excuse me. I'm just getting some last second things here ready We have a special unboxing today And uh just to have a little fun. I do have A crt here set up with Well, it's goodness. It's been so long since I've played this You got road rash on The 3do believe it or not. That's what you're witnessing here is Just a little bit of the live 3do action. Oh my goodness and it's really uh A spectacle to have me do this from here, but This was always one of my favorite games for the 3do and probably one of the most popular ones on the 3do And uh, so that's a sony pvm 8044 q restored And refurbished trinitron you're looking at And i'm gonna try to not run into any Cars, I don't know if I'll catch up at this point. I'm so far behind. Oh, there's a driver. Oh, you could punch him Oh, we almost hit a pedestrian. Oh, there goes somebody now. We're catching up Yeah Oh, that's no good. All right fun stuff, right so As I said, uh, today, I've got some fun things for you. I've got Of course that 3do just running on the road rash and as things get going here I want to give a cheers and a good morning. Actually, it's almost afternoon for most people Uh, well, no, maybe so in america. I'm on the east coast. It's still morning 11 15 a.m On a wednesday And I have been out of town for about the past eight days and I got into town monday and then I hadn't streamed in a while. So I wanted to come back and say hey to everybody So good to see samuel g Good to see a lot of people here pixargin pixels the tech boy tech news Tony eskibar felipe osa self-elected Abe's game and skates demo curvy stephen c Romeo is burning. Thank you all michael redzowski two tone eight Think I got everybody Thank you all for showing up and giving a quick shout out in the chat if you do if you are able Please drop a like so that more people can Find the stream if they're able to be here and they want to be here that might help youtube push them Towards you're giving them a little bit of a notice. Hey koa koa Excuse me. I forgot to turn my ringer down and It's okay. I've been just getting bombarded With spam calls. So I'll make sure to just at least put that on vibrate and see a case something happens. Super guy crt What's up? We can actually thank super guy crt For this From what I you just changed it. Okay. Did you just change your handle? Is that always been that? All right Alf and D Self-elected thank you guys. What we're gonna do is we're gonna open this box, which was sent here. It's got two sonys in it and We're just gonna open it up. See what's inside and See how it looks. I think everybody's going to enjoy What we have in here. I do have again this setup over here with 3do. Let me let me back that camera out a little bit and I'll tell you we're going to be testing it on this The output video of this setup that you see right here. So there's the 3do and There's everything on it and Thankfully the cameras have been working a little bit better So the 3do sitting there hooked up and then we're going to go video out into our test subject So we're going to be using composite video But this 3do has been rgb modded and it does have the 240p 480i switch installed And that's a really sweet modification. Those actually just came back in stock. So if you check out twitter I've retweeted the information on that But I would definitely recommend it if you love the 3do But I don't know how many people love the 3do out there. I always did. It was always one of those oddities now Most of the games with the 3do the interesting thing is is there's all this weird video, you know FMVs cut scenes and even entrances and like almost whole movie productions And So It's a funny console. It's an oddity And it's just one that really did actually pave the way if you think about it a lot ideas Good ideas came from it, but there were also some weird things about it like for instance The fact that's yours if you're player two you have to Plug into the back of the player one controller You have to plug in your player two controller into your player one controller and daisy change your controllers that way And just one of the oddities of this amazing console. So That's what's going on that camera. We're about to open up this box and see what's inside and then um We will get going so Yeah, the 3do. Let me see. I'll tell you about how I got mine. I got mine a while ago before anybody really wanted them and I bought it from a pawn shop. I paid about $150 for it. It was in the box Uh, and it came with all kinds of goodies. The guy just wanted it gone. So 150 bucks came with the blaster gun and a bunch of games so it is uh It is you know, like anything probably gotten too expensive anymore to have the real thing. I haven't I wouldn't buy one now if they're too expensive Probably myself anymore but Since I do have it over here. We'll let it run now. Let's just go ahead and hop into this box I was just letting the chat get going and And making sure things were steady on the stream. The audio looks good from what I can tell everybody's here and Maybe let's see how this other camera looks Um, I also have another third camera that maybe see there you get the you get the whole shot um Maybe I won't leave that on Let's go ahead and reset that 3do Let me pull the microphone out So she can hear me a little better About that Everything is green Everything's not clean is it? You like that one better? All right. Well, it looks fine. I think Let's open it. We'll have more information about this coming in a full-on episode and um, we'll have some special guests who's helped helped me with this Stuff here and uh We'll just keep this aside for a second And see what we have inside here. Let's see Oh, we got We got mr. Cole coming in picking a nap here. Let's See if we can Get him on camera. Maybe for a second. Oh, that's hard to see. He's down there A little black dot on the a little black dot on the dog bed. There's Cole Yeah, he's getting snugly in the top of the screen all right now Oh, yeah, there's some snoring Okay That wouldn't be a bad idea, but I got so much junk here. I don't know that I can fit the room in. Oh boy. We got some parts Okay We'll bring this stuff over to the bench And look at it closer that way Oh, yeah, christmas morning. Here we go, right? Oh, yeah, this is nice. Okay, cool Let's see There's one big box Let's see I'm down here That's well Here we go The more stuff Make sure that's everything. I believe that should be everything Okay, cool Excellent Get that out of the way. We'll get situated back in our spot here Now we can look closer Addresses a crt then I'd probably I probably would let you keep myself accidentally so Maybe that would be good for the views. Hey dark black. Hey fk fake music. Thanks for coming We're right in the middle of this first things. Let's let's start with the smaller one And we'll save this big one as the big surprise here Because I believe this one may have a little bit of an issue where it doesn't quite start Or something about it. Let's just open it up and see Um That's a case maybe we can get it to To work. I'm not positive We'll see what we can do. But then we also have this other thing that I know works Under the big Box here. Hey for my tv Cheers from nyc. Well cheers from virginia. Thanks for coming um Hope everybody had a great Long weekend if you're able to get the day off monday and Now we're Back to work Like I said, I had been out of town for a while. So I had a lot of arrivals come in This is There's a crt in here. I believe I probably ought to do a better job of There we go. Oh, yeah, this is cool Check this one out Now this is from again Kevin Thank you for sending this stuff in I've Kevin's got a channel and I'm gonna You know highlight his channel when we when I make the episode on this stuff and Tell what we have here first Whoo This Is a sony kv 4000 Which is a four inch CRT right there Look at that little thing So it got it's got a DC oh, it's dc power In with some with some goop on there So it takes a dc power supply You see that right there has composite video in right there And then right here it has a plug in for DC power supply now 12 volt dc power supply That is center negative That has that type of a Size of a plug in okay Maybe we can find something that will work um I will have to go check some other things for that So before I do that will Open up the other ones there, but uh, I'll have to go off screen to see. I don't really have that On my shelf right here right now so We could use This to input something over rf that antenna And then It's like you could do audio in only No audio in over here and composite video in here. So it's got a funky audio Oh It says dc 12 volt 12 watts And that's it it doesn't say So what I've got some other gear that It's from this time period. Let me go look real quick over that while you're waiting. We'll go back to this And uh, we'll pull up a little bit of Just some background music while I go search for that hopefully it won't take me More than a minute or so Here we go. Here we go. Oh took this out. We have A Little guy here. Some people are asking about jvcs Uh, here's a jvc Check that out This is the Oh, what is this one? cx 60 us And it has it's from all january of 1985 And this is a color tv Also with composite inputs And actually regular audio input so We will Try this power supply, which is actually a 12 volt 1.4 amps a little bit higher in the amps than one amp, but Hopefully that won't hurt anything So that looks and it's the same it's got Center negative which this one is I believe I said it was center negative Center negative yes And so we will Power this up Hopefully with this power supply looks like it's about the same size Barrel here. We'll have to just see let's That's the last thing Yeah, it fits Okay Let's get it I believe there's a way to get it off this Yes Little release button there So we have a power supply here. Oh, if I can get all the lines out there There you go But before I use it, I am going to wipe off this input On the tv because it's not very clean I'm gonna make any cameras that have both of these views in it I don't believe I have any views that have all of them Just that and it's okay So we're going to clean up right here behind this for a second Just going to use a little isopropyl alcohol And that should do it Okay, so let's Put that over there Clean it a little bit better We'll test it all right It's actually my first time looking at this version As I said, I have this other one, but it's a little bit bigger. I believe this It's like a five inch screen this uh jvc, which Slightly bigger And we're gonna go for it. I'm gonna shoot some air down in there real quick And we'll be ready to fire it up. Let's see See if you ever think about getting a hold of an uh and unboxing the cursed non-trinitron sony crt in south america We'll see The cursed from south america I'm not heard of the cursed one from south america But I am aware of non-trinitron crt Or sony crt's Which may be What we have under this Here I'm not sure maybe all right That's just alcohol in there so that shouldn't be anything And it's dried out by now So I'm just cleaning with Yeah, it's not a trend All right, here we go. So if I stick this in here Hopefully it won't just blow up. It's powered off And from what I understand it has a way to kick itself up. Let me make sure I unlock it though That's the case All right, that don't You don't want to break it interesting It's definitely got a way to Kick up. I don't know. I don't want to rip it Something's holding it Because that's where the controls are is under there Okay, it's just hard to click There we go. I don't think it goes any more than that probably All right. Well There's nothing right. Let's put the camera down here a little bit more towards that And as I said, the first thing we'll do is just plug in the power and see if anything happens No signs of life Oh, hang on. I got to turn this one on duh No Still no signs. Okay Oh, here we go. Wait I see power on here. I got an indicator light There's a button on the side. Where's that button? Oh, I see it right there. There it is Ah, now I see it cool. There's a release button Oh, look it's coming on Look at that Well, it overloaded though. It might be too much power. Let's see Well, look at there. We have a bunch of green scrolling You think it'll look better? Hey, thanks for the super chat two tone I appreciate that. Yeah, I don't know. It looks like it's coming on. Is the tube blown on this one? You think? super guy I can't remember what we talked about being wrong with this one, but that's how you It's getting power. It's just let me see if I can get anything else to respond Yeah, I can't really It's definitely we'll need a lot of work, right? Oh, I don't maybe if I do manual Cool anyway, right? Try on and off again Since that one's not working We're gonna put let's let's check out the other one Since it's here before we just move on So we've got the sony right here This one's a fun one And it does have a lovely Kickstand, so that's cool This is the jvc model and uh, just like the other one We can do an antenna and Yeah, it looks like it is over driven Oh, I'm sorry. Let me see. Where's your chat? Where's your question to tone? Oh, here you go I have a quick question if you don't mind Silly purchase a 14 l 5 with some cosmetic damage to the case And it's but it's tripping your breaker even when nothing else is on that is tripping your breaker and the crt staying on Um, if it was arrived damage, what you should do is open it up and and see if anything Get the screen a little bit harder. You see my face Should check it out to make sure that nothing's like Falling apart, uh, or disconnected. That's really what I would be looking for also make sure nothing's bridged And Oh, cool. Thank you super guy. Yeah, that's what there there's a board here. So Cool. Is it just a swap thing? I'm sorry. I have been like just so overwhelmed with work recently So with it's something we could just do here. We can probably do it But anyway back to two tones so that Um, you should go inside Yeah, I would check it out open it up make sure that um, you don't see any kind of breakage You have to inspect all the boards and Connection points And then Make sure that you know, you might have to go in and do save on pat's kit To it which includes like a couple of things that can cause it to trip and blow Sometimes that could be from the neck board. So check to see if the neck board itself has any damage Uh to it So that's the first thing I'd look at it when you open it up two tone. Just be careful um, but If there's damage to the outside, there's often damage to the inside So that's that's the unfortunate thing about shipping. All right, jvc Here, let's see if I can get this Signal from Which one is it red? Yeah, look at there. Hang on let me get that Screen brightness down. See this one works really well Uh You see that? So that's just the signal going from Out of this monitor right here Uh, it goes from the 3do into that and then the daisy chain out comes over here And I know it's like super bright and you're getting a big reflection But you see that see how you can kind of see the road rash Down there. It's the testing. This one's pretty simple to use It also will run on like d bet. Well, no, no, no, I'm sorry. This one is not like that some of them Will run on batteries. Those are usually black and white ones. Is that there you go? Yeah Hey don honk. How's it going? Um Yeah, I even got the volume on there That's coming over so Let's check out this part that Kevin sent with this and see what See what we got Oh, look at this This is a whole Yeah, it's a whole d board. Wow. It even has a flyback and then what do we have here? I don't know what this goes into Oh That looks nasty. This is interesting. So maybe there's a part that's bad on there I'll have to talk to Kevin more about it But this is a the board Subject so that will connect inside there. Don't really see a problem on this board, but Check out this contraption coming out of probably some kind of focus control Or convergence adjustment control or something right here That comes out of the flyback Yeah, that's right there. Wonder if I would have to like splice that cable Instead of removing this whole block Hey shadow mask Interesting. So that's inside. This is what's inside driving. Look at that little flyback Driving that trinitron inside there and this one Well, we've just opened this one so far Which is a sony kb 4000 and I do believe there's a Super guy or Kevin If you're there, there's it. There is a pvm 4000 which would be about the same size as this Which is like the smallest sony pvm I believe there is period. Um, I don't know that those are very portable As far as like having battery packs kind of like the five inch one is Okay, yeah, that's what I figured cool the focus pot. That's what that is All right, cool so Before we go jump into that, but we're we're on the um The the pvm 4000 would be about the same probably sizes this one But just not Not a kv A pvm Set of three mini pvms. I do have three mini pvms somewhere Yeah, the solid block ones I can go if we when we get through this actually have one of those two i'll grab it If uh, if we get once we get through the second unboxing because this is going to be the fun one Next up we have what's in the big box Which is Never mind. Let's go back to this one Right over here to my side right here Yeah, that's another thing I was thinking about was with the One of the reasons I bought the pvm. That's the five inch version And did the video on it was I knew I had replacement tubes from Those like combined or units they just do composite video, but the tubes the same So, uh, I was prepared To have to swap the tube out if I needed to but thankfully the one I bought had a good tube in it Okay, there's some travel crts of the 1980s and 90s. Let's see what this this one's gotta be an 80s I'm guessing 82 1982 And then the jvc is 1985 It's definitely some old stuff there oldie goodies I did not someone was saying there's an auction for 14 2950s And the Netherlands. I have not seen that. That's crazy. If so A tuber on youtube That's right. So Thanks again for everybody for coming in right now You have all made it past the first 30 minutes Of us looking at some stuff that came in and this is this is the cream of the crop right here And this one Again, click on super guy.

So the first side That's on your side Let's see. Is there any difference between yeah Okay So that was the back of the box. This is the front Of this beautiful box that would have been on the shelf Let's see. This came from fries electronics in berber, california. How awesome is that? Look at that Got a full label right there I love that. How about that? Well, make sure I didn't do anything Still alive, aren't we? Good.

It's on the front here That's some pretty cool stuff says met mega bass sound audio video input external input for antenna input ac dc power voltage sync of voltage synthesized tuning And Ooh, we even know how much this cost We even know how much this cost Check it out There's a label down here at the bottom It's very difficult to make out but it says two hundred and ninety eight dollars In zero cents Wow, that's awesome. It is white In color. That's why you have that color here. There probably was a different Different colored Model may be available Color watchmen everybody Uh the side I showed you that already kind of says the same stuff on this side Let's look at the other side And see what it says on that side not much difference Uh, just doesn't have the labeling on it Let's Let's get the bottom Just the model number down here and Then the back of the box Which shows you the features Of this little thing We've got carrying handle Radio tuning dial power switch Color tv screen five inch speaker earphone jack Channel tuning and indicator Our functions are on the side then with a volume control wheel And an antenna So That was 1990 pricing Right that would have been expensive for 1990. Oh my What an amazing example here Of a CRT and I see that We have a little tape on here. I don't really want to This looks like external tape that maybe kevin added. I don't really want to I don't want to add anywhere in tear to the box Because this is a beautiful collector's item here. Yeah, wow, so All good here, let's Let's see if I can Maybe Start a different camera angle Yeah, look at this. So we're looking down In this box Very cool Very very cool. So we have A power supply Right here I'm trying to make sure this these foam look like yeah, they're all Piece like this you have a 13 volt Hey koala koa. Thank you for the super chat.

How cool is that? Still in the original sleeve That's a great deal kevin 99 bucks Amazing cool. We'll look at that closer here in a second. What a great deal. I wish I would have seen that for 99 bucks I'd have bought it Cool, so there's the inside the box is the bottom piece of foam there And that's really it um, let me show you The top of the box Is what this just looks like this it has the Sony Logo here and sony logo over here.

This is gonna be awesome Here we go Here we here we go we've got The watchman right here this lovely handle I'm not gonna do A lot of deep dive stuff on this today Because again, I'm gonna do a full episode on this But we will Of course plug it in Take a good look at this talk about it some more I'm excited to see it Here's the monitor. Let me move back into the right place Our crt tv got Nice look at it here I just love this design. Check it out. You got this big subwoofer down here at the bottom Just elegant, right? What an elegant little tv. I love it You got Was that earphone jacks? Yeah Input right here Up and down On your buttons for channel control That button Says channel call Okay, I'm not really sure what that Does but up here we've got our volume tuner Our volume and our radio tuner up here Power button. It's a lovely green large Power button nice and squeaky All right, we've got tv FM AM Function controls right here and then tv bandwidth or band function This is an ntsc. So it is not it is all american Juxtapause Again, we have the Option of selecting our antenna So once you put it on tv On the side function, then you have to select whether you want your antenna input right here for rf signals or composite And A regular audio mono audio right there, which is what we're going to use in a second And that's it. Then you have your dc power voltage in A couple of screen controls Normal stuff right here. Let's see what this label says So this one is actually manufactured in 1994, right? there's the label right there You can read that i'm not sure but Might be difficult says right there 94 We'll open this up and take a closer look And reveal all the secrets about this later but Just to give you a closer kind of overhead view Just take a look at it This way Okay, there we go Here we are Right, so this is like Looking at me. I mean, what a beautiful set You look here. That's what the top of it looks like Just a miraculous little thing beautiful What a collector's item and I imagine That this plastic would have a chance of becoming brittle and change colors, but man, this is actually a beautiful color still And it looks like it's barely used honestly So here's the handle Vent holes back here behind it Now, um, we're gonna get to this in a second Because I think it's important, but this is just a back the back label And Just hard. I know to see a lot of that on there because it's actually engraved in the white And another vent hole back here And on the side And really sturdy looking inputs. There's our input selection switch Just love this thing man Color TV AM FM tuner averages 20 watts And that's mostly it as far as the design and the outside of it In the front Another look at that cool, but the base Subwoofer, so let's try it. Let's go ahead and plug it in We're gonna be using this regular power supply We'll fit in there Move over to the other Hang on Okay Here we go What do you say? Let's plug it in Hmm. We got it set on video TV Let's plug it in with all that and turn it on With everything plugged in Right there Oh See I'll try to talk so it doesn't muffl up the sound but Definitely get some good sound out of this man. That's amazing. Oh, oh, yeah You know, it's gonna be perfect, right? Let me see if I could turn Let me see if I could turn this light off hang on look at that How cool is this? Hey Robinson This is the oh my goodness The most impressive thing on this has got to be Just the sound is awesome The color is looking great though Oh, look at that I can't wait to show you the close-up of this screen because it's definitely different than what you're going to see on normal tritons, but It is super clean for composite Look at that Let's get it in there where it's actually showing you How nice that is? Oh my goodness now one of the things You turn this volume down here. See how loud it goes actually Yeah Wow, what a cool little thing. Let me go set this next to Let's go set this next to the other Check it out That tube is super bright. It's like it was barely used I wish I could get that strobing to go away, but it's kind of hard when it's a uh Non-dark background game, but Wow, what a fun what a fun little crt But that thing I wonder if I turn this light if I don't hope anything can see Sometimes adding light helps you look with that that makes the side one look a lot better Yeah Definitely does So that's uh That's that's the small little tv though And I'll just leave it keeping running now. Hopefully the cameras can get caught up a little bit to it. You can see a little better Right loser Wow Yeah, so it does have composite. It also has an antenna input where you can input RF into the back of it. Hey, steven Schneider, thanks for coming in So it does have uh those two options to add Into this is a really cool CRT. I've never seen this this one ever Um in person. I mean So again, thank you kevin for sharing it with us all And all you have to do is click on super guy crt and go check out kevin's channel show him some love Yeah, there's a magic eye poster back there I have a book of them Maybe I'll mess with you guys and try to see if you can find If you can if you can make out the pictures in them I remember crossing my eyes trying to figure those things out in the mall in the 90s Good old days Hey race Welcome in this morning Yeah, we're just checking out everybody these CRTs we unboxed a couple uh the best and rarest being the Sony right there and uh as well as you look at it for a second I'm going to go ahead and pull out all this warranty card and information like that and we'll take a quick look at this and Really really really See what sony has to say to its customers In late 80s and early 90s I just want to make sure there's no important information as far as Customer information or people's information. This is so wonderful I mean, we are extremely lucky. We've got some pretty unique things here guys Let's let's take a look at this from the overhead. Okay I'm gonna pull my camera back above it So I'll be in the camera in the corner And we'll look at this documentation. Let me turn that light off so can read it a little better Turn that light on We will see here first off. We have some important safeguards Printed from sony. I love these kind of things that you don't even get anymore, right? They're like screw safety. You're responsible for reading our app And a thousand page disclaimer That is not printed on paper For your protection, please please read these instructions completely and keep this manual for future reference Carefully observe and comply with all warnings cautions and instructions placed on the set Or described in the operation operating instructions or service manual To guard against serious injury the following basic safety precautions should be observed In the installation use and servicing of the set. This is from 1988 It would have been with A lot of sony hardware, especially televisions from this time. Look at look at this safety sheet for For this this is just to get a crt Sold into your home you had to have this amazing CRT safety sheet in the 90s Look power sources, huh ac 120 volt. Oh, I love that. Look at that This set should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the serial model plate If you're not sure of the electrical power supplied to your home consult your dealer or power company But you call the power company My sony, I don't know man. It says 12 volt 120. All right, cool. Whatever Oh, I just find stuff like that a little funny. Sorry everybody Grounding or polarization There's some stuff It's got a polarized Polarized Polarized ac power cord plug And there's some more information on that Alternative wiring, of course you have regular grounded wiring, which is I think more More safe. Oh, see I keep thinking the cops are showing up and it's the dumb uh Sound on that On that road rash over there where the cops look at this the cops over here are busting busting up the party There's a cop Trying to take out take out the computer there And uh, I keep hearing the sirens No, you never know over here where I live. That could be real Overloading do not overload wall outlets Look at that Look at that. Look at that picture. It gives you The weird thing Is that this almost looks like some usb powered Power supply input. What about that? Look at that. So needs artists Those look like wall jacks where you're sticking your usb cables in doesn't it? Right That does not look like any power supply Thing I guess if it's You're trying to say it looks like this plugged in Interesting They they knew it was coming didn't they over here. Oh look, here's our friend. He's back Always turn the set off when it's not To be used when the set is left unattended and unused for long periods of time Unplug it from the wall outlet As a precaution against the possibility of an internal malfunction that could create a fire hazard There you go. Keep your sets turned off And look at that guy here. He is back. He's like yep, I'm going out of town I'm unplugging all my crts guys I do this every time. This is good advice I didn't make it up. Sony did if you're traveling Disconnect those crts Well, this is pretty you know obvious Never push objects of any kind into the set through the cabinet holes And and never spill liquids of any kind in the set Do not use Attachments not recommended by the manufacturer as they may cause hazards. Look at this See Do you see how Sony gave you this picture of a set right here? Then you have the two speakers that have Obviously, that's not sound. That's magnetism. So they're already warning people against unshielded See our unshielded Speakers being put too close to the set to cause interference and the same thing is with This turntable that can cause Interference too if there's you know that that's spinning a lot of electricity It could cause a magnetic interference too. That's awesome Look at that. They used to tell you all this stuff cleaning Unplug the set from the wall outlet before cleaning or polishing it do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners Use a lightly dampened cloth with water For cleaning the exterior of the set Oh, look at this Look at this one Is there anybody still here watching this? I'm not in my laugh at myself looking at this stupid manual I mean, I said stupid. I absolutely love it Snap pop. Huh? Look at that question mark over his head These these are amazing If a snapping or popping sound from a tv set is continuous or frequent while the tv set is operating Unplug the tv inconsult your dealer or service technician It is normal for some tv sets to make occasional snapping and popping sounds particularly when being turned on and off Wow Just you just don't see this kind of Stuff anymore insulation Look at this Water and moisture. Look at this. What is this kid? This guy's in the bathtub. Look at this guy He's back. He's in the bathtub trying to change the channel This guy's getting out of the pool and he's like, yeah, I gotta go check the store Oh Do not use power line operated sets near water For example, dear a bathtub wash bowl kitchen sink or laundry tub in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc All right Accessories do not place the set on an unstable cart The set may fall causing serious injury to a child or an adult and a serious damage to the set Use only a cart or stand manufactured or recommended by the manufacturer. Look at that This guy literally bumped the crt with his ass unknowingly bumped the crt with his ass tipping it over causing destruction And look at this poor sap what oh, I'm pulling it. He's pulling it up a rug And ah, yeah, that's that's that's like this This is like how how people really get killed by a crt just like this an appliance And cart combination should be moved with care Quick stops excessive force and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn Wow, I was not this is we're just on the first thing with this and look Holy crap. There's an entire back page Wow, so here's Here's something We've got some more stuff here. Oh look ventilation There's actually good tips in here The slots and openings in the cabinet And in back at the bottom are provided for necessary ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the set And to protect it from overheating Those slots and openings Must never be blocked or covered Never cover the slots and openings with a cloth or other materials Never block the slots and openings by placing the set on a sofa bed rug or other similar surface Look What are you doing kid? What are you doing kid get that thing off that couch right now? Man like I don't know I grew up in the 80s 90s And I never saw a kid this this dumbass right Man I never knew anybody that that that had a crt. They just put it on the What What this look at this never set Never placed the set in a confined space such as a book bookcase built-in cabinet Unless proper ventilation is provided. Look at that. At first. I thought that was a uh fireplace Look at that But it's not I guess it's like if you built in a cubby hole and you place the crt in it So that was highly recommended against by the crt safety Folk over there at sony. Look at that lovely drawing. Do not put your sony in the fireplace. What are you crazy? Do not place the set near or over a radiator or heat register where it is exposed to direct sunlight You better go pick up a crt from the street if that's true. That's awesome. Go do it. Come back and tell us how it works Yeah, don't don't bake pizzas With your crt in oven Power cord protection. Oh, look at that. Don't snap your power cord by putting it under a piece of furniture snap I know look at that. That's right. Look at that. Look at the You haven't brought up a great point. Look at the little Distressed signal face like oh no, I'm melting. Please somebody stop my pain Oh stop my pain and please get me off this radiator Oh goodness gracious antennas Now there's a lot i'm not gonna go into this antenna thing because it's all just like nerdy talk about how you should really That up your antenna What would you like on your tombstone? CRT machines. Yeah Oh, it's some lightning warning down here All right, we do have oh look at this We do have some more stuff here at the bottom under the service Damage requiring service unplug the set this shows so we've got some drawings here of bad bad bad Bad crt bad crt Well, you need to get fix So first if you have afraid or taut ac line Which you can see the picture right there a cracked plug Oh, look, I mean look at this it even gives you if liquid has been spilled on the set And it gives you another drawing of half half a lady vacuuming knocking the crt knocking over the plant And spilling liquid into the set I can get that all from that little picture Oh and look If it was exposed to rain water Look at little jimmy little jimmy took his walk his uh Watchman out in the rain And he's wondering why it's got a problem If the set has been subject to excessive shock by dropping Or the cabinet has been damaged Look at that so you got some cracks on there Cracks cracks in the frame all the way into the tube friends If you cracked your tube you call this guy. Hey, hey, hey steve Yeah, I cracked my tube again Yeah, I know can I can I get bring it over and and get me a new tube in there right away Okay If the set does not operate normally look at that It's given us a picture of kind of what we saw when we started up our kv 4000 at the beginning of the stream That's exactly what our picture looked like. It's even green Hey I don't get it. I'm using my manual. It's not happening Of course, you got to take it into steve again for that one Now look at this look at this Little jimmy Little jimmy's feeling brazen. It's gonna open up his crt and stick his arm in right at the anode cap Little jimmy Little jimmy's sticking his hand in right at the anode cap. He's not going around the sides He's not going near the bottom. He's going blind mouth opened Straight for the anode cap Do not attempt to service these sets yourself folks Since opening the cabinet may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel Oh safety check Look, here's your friendly. Here's your friendly neighborhood steve of 1994 jimmy's finally gone in he survived his anode spill Although it did give him a little bit of a neck neck bubble problem back there. You see All right, we're at the tv service tv service department all sets receive our okay safety check First off No safety guy again CRT safety guy, which should be wearing a necktie Upon completion of any service or a pair set ask the service tech to perform a routine safety check All right, you should not have to ask them also. You should Totally they should be doing that without being asked, but you're right I guess you should ask because there's probably some shady shady repairman back of the day Oh When the set and or reaches the end of its useful life improper Dispose of make result in picture tube implosion Ask a qualified service tech dispose of the set. Look Oh, no, don't just throw me down. Don't don't you do it jimmy? You just you just tossed me down At least poor little handhelds and that's folks that is just an amazing piece of sony literature that When you first get it it looks like this Look at that we could have just skipped right past this and we would have missed that whole 15 minutes of fun I don't think the rest of these documents are gonna be as fun But we do have some information on the warranty So let's take a look at this real quick. Just so you can see it over here. It's still running awesome You can see it right there. I love the way I can actually at least see that screen I know the screen scrolling above it on the 8044 q right now But you can Well, I mean it just pops color Just a lovely little tv And we're going to get into this thing a whole lot more Uh, when I do that full on episode, it's just going to be a little bit of time before that actually happens And that's what we're doing this one today. So Anyway back to our warranty Limited warranty from sony for a portable tv Look at that. This is your lovely warranty. You must store this with all your important documents like the deed of your home and The title to your vehicle all your stocks and bonds and dividends And of course your sony limited warranty for your portable television This needs to be secured in a safety deposit box preferably But after 90 days you can throw it away So Yeah, sony does give you a 90 day warranty from the day to purchase for labor No charge parts for one year And labor and installation is just 90 days All right, the warranty does not cover certain damage. Oh my goodness Look at this. This is see let's take a look at uh What it does not cover damage. This is what you always got to read the fine print Damage due to acts of god Accidental misuse and abuse negligence commercial use literally If you were using this And they said it was in your business commercial use huh modification of Even if you modify the antenna If you bent and broke the antenna that would void your warranty improper maintenance connection to improper voltage power supplies And of course doesn't cover it if you send it to a repair shop not listed As a part of their warranty program So There you have it If you guys have nothing better to do today Give sony's Lines of call here. Look to locate a service or dealer dealer nearest you is an 800 number customer relations an 800 number customer information center 1 800 488 sony. I wonder if we could call them and ask them if they have any of these available That would make a fun episode sometime. All right Let's see Lastly we have Let me fold out and monitor or fold out manual. Sorry Operating instructions for the fdt live The 5x Okay, this shows you How to hook it up how to connect it with some more drawings I love the little drawings they used to do of even just the hardware so great And there's the back of the tv set And they didn't like give you a drawing of something it was actually the tv sets some artists actually drew this thing To scale almost look at that so we have A way to power this using a cigarette lighter. Look at that. There's a cigarette lighter accessory for it bar power How to change the channels and functions And all this lovely stuff specifications. Let's see if we see anything interesting on here five inch Picture measured diagonally it says right there Again, it is ntsc. So it is american standard And I think we've gone through just about everything else it weighs approximately Five pounds 15 ounces so right at six pounds pretty much Give you some cyst symptoms And troubleshooting right there. That's pretty nice It's a multiple language manual. So this is pretty standard with all sony stuff that would have been from this time period But that my friends is a look That's something you don't see every day You definitely don't see that every day I am blown away at the level of detail On That little guide now that the manual itself was printed in 1993 The the cell the television As a manufactured date of 94 So that means this set would have been sold in the fries electronics more likely Late 1994 at the earliest Probably as late as 95 96 for that Sales date on there. I'm trying to just get this stuff back in the bag a little bit about Without doing anything to it Still think we might need to uh Take a closer look at the tv All right, there we go set that down there And That's all the stuff we have unboxed today Right there they are. Well, there's the The main thing that came unboxed The working tv Do you guys have any questions about it? I don't see any Any real questions about the tv right now, but if you do Feel free to give me uh, give me your questions. I'll be glad to See if I can answer about it. Let me see if I can get a different view Well Not really wanting to If I turn those lights down Whoa, that's looking wild. Look at that when I take that light off That helps any That's better a little bit better Let's get some questions about how this compares tell you the composite picture looks awesome I mean, it's a little different because the secret to this one is is it's not actually a uh It's not a trinitron. That's why it doesn't say trinitron tube on it It's uh, it's a different type of tube I'm not open to yet to see who makes the tube and i'm not going to make any kind of assumption as to it No, on its own it looks amazing But if you have a of course this tube looks like it doesn't have a lot of use on it So if you have a pvm tube That doesn't have a lot of use on it. It's probably going to look better because it's a sharper tube Let's see Maybe I can make it look a little better like that. There we go That way you can see how you know, that's that's a composite image um And the colors are a little bit different Brightness is different on each set just because it's not I actually like the way though But the bottom one's showing up better on camera. The watchman is But if you look at him in person It's weird the watchman has almost a flat screen look So it's it's going to be a very interesting one to dive into and take apart for sure Cool stuff though. Cool stuff Well folks That's going to kind of everything I have for today On the main stream here. Um, I just definitely wanted to come back and let everybody know that Streams are back. Everything's back I uh, it's a samsung tube. Yeah, okay Yeah, I I do think it's a single speaker with the lot like a lot of those details on the hardware itself We're gonna we're gonna figure out more once I do the full episode so, um Definitely keep an eye out for that that will be a little while probably a month Well, if you if you use it plug into a cigarette in the car It would last as long as you left left the engine running, you know or drained your battery So it would go as long as as you wanted it to It just looks awesome I if I had this growing up and my parents put this in a cigarette lighter and then hooked up a darn Inverter and and let me run like a Uh, something in the car on trips. You think how cool you'd be? The cautionary tales I tell you that was another exciting thing to actually look at was those Uh, the safety documents. I've never really seen anything like that That was a lot of fun but You could tell it's a it's a really cool really cool looking crt and uh I appreciate everybody hanging out today. I'm gonna come back and uh, but depending on what's going on Like I said, I've got to get started Pretty much after this on fw 900 I do have all the parts here and I've it's it was a lot. I mean it was hundreds of capacitors That's all been delivered So I'm gonna start pulling those boards and when I do I'm actually gonna live stream me servicing a lot of those boards Right, so I'll pull them down here in the shop And I will once I have them out. I'll start just going through them And so hopefully I can get that set up tomorrow where I can even do a stream. Hopefully tomorrow afternoon And start with the first board on the restoration of that fw 900 So if you're new to the channel and you just showed up to this part of the stream Make sure you've subscribed that way.
