As you go back in time, you see that people are less and less likely to be held accountable for their actions... not more (at least in part because almost everyone carries a decent quality video camera in their pocket). Education and intelligence levels are slowly increasing.... not decreasing (at least in part because if you do something stupid, you'll quickly find yourself on youtube or facebook as an example for everyone else). And I was warned PLENTY of times in the 80s and 90s not to try things at home. What the heck are you people smoking?

I remember building my first CW transmitter from an old television set purchased as junk from the Salvation Army thrift shop for $1.00. I salvaged the excellent power transformer, but I was very fearful about putting the transformer primary across the 120 VAC power -----that would be a short circuit, wouldn't it? So I studied up and learned something about inductance and reactance. My one piece of equipment that I designed, built and operated entirely by myself was a telephone answering machine. This was circa 1970 when home answering machines really wern't available at all. I used a capacitor across the telephone circuit and when the ringing voltage came from a call, that voltage went through the capacitor and triggered a relay, set up as a locking relay. That turned on power to a couple of tape recorders, and power was witched between one that play a message on an endless loop of tape and then a thermal time delay relay switched to a second tape recorder that recorded a message. Worked reasonably well, and I never got in trouble with the phone company! I had everything nicely packaged in a plastic box. Don't ask me about the OTHER box that allowed me to receive long distance calls without the caller being billed for them....

Great video! My first transmitter as a novice was a Globe Scout 680a, very similar to the 40A. That 5 pin connector in the back that looped the heater and B+ through it was used for when out in the boonies. A 6 volt storage battery would light the tubes and a dynamotor or vibrator pack would provide the plate voltage. Many older receivers had the same loop through plug/socket. My dad was a ham too. Today he was born exactly 100 years ago today. He has long passed though. But it was cool to see this today. Dave-N2DS

I have a Globe 300 it was a product of WORLD RADIO LABS of Council Bluffs Iowa One of THE Big Ham Radio sellers in the late 40's and 1950's and they were SO Big that they decided to put out their own line of Transmitters 😅 which basically competed with the Johnson Viking and Ranger transmitters.

@@ProperLogicalDebate I received a nasty shock one evening when working on a 100 Watt class plate modulated transmitter. I had it powered up into a dummy load, plate voltage on full, and I have the meter connected and was adjusting a sliding tap resistor with a screwdriver while monitoring voltage to the modulator tubes. At some point I got a bit careless and my index finger touched the metal stem of the screwdriver while my left hand contacted the chassis. I got full DC plate voltage in one hand, through my heart and out the other. It knocked my across the room. For a few seconds I saw a bright flash then stars, had a metallic taste in my mouth, felt off balance. When I recovered a few moments later I could smell burned flesh where the current entered my right hand. It was a painful shock and when I think about it I can still feel it to this day (it happened around 20 years ago). Since then I never entered my hands near a transmitter (or any HV device) with it plugged in and the power on. Even if I am making adjustments it gets powered down, unplugged and discharged first before my hand gets anywhere near the insides.

A modification video on this RF amplifier would be marvelous Mr Carlson! I'd be interested in signal clarity and RF power increases for example.

That tuning reminded me of tuning up the old radio teletype sets back in the 1970's they were some powerful units, could talk around the world with them if you had the right antenna, we took over an old marine compound back in 1971, the jar-heads had two poles that had to have been over 60 feet tall with antenna's strung between them every so many feet. Buddy of mine had to strap on some Gaff's and climb those poles to tear down their sets and replace them with antenna's cut to our frequencies. Now I took the Field Wire-man course back when I first enlisted in the Army and we climbed poles for a week, but I would have been scared to death to climb that far. Ah well, I do envy that old buddy of mine; haven't seen him since '71 but I did hear from him in '77.

Oh what memories you have brought back. There was the Globe Scout, Globe Chief and the monster Globe King. I still have much of the old AM transmitting equipment like an ART-13 from WWII Aircraft. Lots of high voltage there. LOL

To my surprise it worked on 80 and 40 meters, after I cleaned it of all the hay and bird poop. Took it out of storage a few years ago and not working so good. Your video may have inspired me to try and get it running again,

Yes, I would like to see !

Boy did you bring back very fond memories, owned one of these in the early-mid sixties when I had my novice license along with a National NC 303 receiver....thank you Dad, (miss you).

As a ham this is a great looking rig! Pleasure to just watch the thing come to life.

I have several vintage 1950s AM transmitters like this including a Globe King 500, made by the same company that made the Globe Scout. However the Globe King is considered a "500 watt" transmitter consisting of 3 decks mounted in a rack. Namely a power supply desk, a modulator deck and an RF deck. It is basically a 4-400 tube modulated by a pair of 811''s. Also have a couple 100 watt category plate modulated transmitters including a Johnson Viking 2 (early 1950s) and a Johnson Viking Valiant (also 1950s). I've had them all on the air at one time or another. Just for the record I am a licensed ham.

Yes, please. Mod it up. Really look forward to that!

Great video. When I first got my general in 1959 I built a Globe Scout 680A which was similar to this one, but ran more power. You have a great way of explaining things!

My Dad had this radio back in the 50s. I have always wanted this transmitter, good find. I have my ham license too, but ham radio is not like it used to be back in the day. I see the old filter capacitors have been replaced with a bank of new electrolytic caps. Electrolytic capacitors become trash after 10 to 15 years.

I wish that I'd had a video like this when I started in electronics years ago. Well done, sir.

I always love watching old stuff get a makeover for the modern times :)

Ahhhh, another video featiring the smooth, dulcid voice of Mr. Carlson. Nice....

I still think the Internet and computers really did a disservice to the younger generation. I am 66years of age , and grew up in the age where we could build our own home brew sets, and shortwave and ham radio were just so much fun, because we were actually trotting all over the globe with air waves and no physical connection with coax such as with cable television! Slow scan ham radio was so cool!

Thank you sir for another great video. I still use my old Swans. Also like you informing the new folks about B+ and its potential for being lethal and being responsible for your own actions.

I'm so glad you've decided to depot the transformer from the previous video. That's going to be so cool to watch!

Thats the great thing about electronics, whatever sphere one is into, and no matter what your skill level, there is fun for all, such is the diversity of our great hobby.

One of the wisest statements you have made, "back in the 50's an era when people took responsibility for their own actions" So very true and a lesson many should learn from. Those were the days when NO ONE would buy a wire antenna and many of us built at least 1 transmitter, feedline, our antenna relay boxes and we repaired our receivers. We depended on the elder Ops in our community for advice and parts if they had them. No hand holding and no cottling. When we were old enough to go off to college and exams came, our professors didn't bring kittens or Lama's to help us cope with the stress. You either passed your exams or repeated the courses; no excuses either way. What has happened over the last 50 years??? Not saying all of the latest generation are wimps, certainly NOT. However way too many are.. I'd vote for modding the xmitter as well. I would not be surprised to see audio improvements byt trashing the 2 RC packs in the audio path. It would also be interesting to look at the signal on a spectrum analyzer and see if improvements could be made to improve the second harmonic radiation. 73, Glenn WA4AOS

Sweet! Looks like I'm not going to bed yet. Thanks Mr Carlson!

Mr Carlson, you are a celebrity!

Love it! I started out in my teens working on old black & white TV’s then tube type CB’s. Grew up in far West Texas (120 miles to the closest city, El Paso) so I didn’t have much access to any other gear. After high school and marriage I went to a tech school and was in the first class that didn’t teach vacuum tube theory. So I learned it pretty much on my own, so I really enjoy watching and learning more and more about the nuances of vacuum tubes. I am currently restoring a 1929 Radiola receiver and man has that ever been an education. Hand wound wire resistors “cards” for lack of a better term. “Mystery” components as they are referred to in the literature, which just turn out to be a negative feed back variable capacitor, but Radiola was not labeling it on the schematic in an attempt to skirt around a German patent on the circuit design. Wholly different world than other vacuum tube gear I have previously worked on. GE Pre-Progress, and Progress line, Motracs, and Mastr II and Micor high power base stations & repeaters. Great video Paul. Side note: I was taught that a pi network was called that because the schematic was shaped like the Greek letter pi. Please “Hot Rod” that transmitter, I would love to see your improvements to that circuit.

"took responsibility for there own actions", what a wonderful era it must have been...

Such a beautiful transmitter! Thanks for the video.

I had HIGH voltage go through my hand once when I was working on a Transmitter. Almost 3rd degree burns. I still have the scars. It was MY Fault. LOL. It doesn't hurt to be electrocuted, but when you wake up...if you do, and your hand is on fire and smoldering, nothing takes away the pain except Demerol in the Ambulance. Morphine does nothing for burns. The voltage melted/punctured my fingertips. Your body part doesn't hurt for about 20 minutes because of the adrenaline, but after 20 minutes it's unbearable. I learned a valuable lesson that day. Never have both arms inside a radio at once if you can help it. Take off all rings and Jewelry and only plug radios into a Variac and Isolation Transformer to work on them. ;)

What a great video. I operated a Globe Scout 65A, a later version of this one, when I got my Novice license in 1955. The Globe Scouts were very affordable but unrefined. Constantly replacing the transmit switch was a way of life for owners. The AM modulation was ‘screen modulation’ which is a cheap technique. These were typically used by novices on CW. I bought mine new and paid $ 100 wired and tested. A kit version was available for a few dollars less.

THE FACTS ARE::I watch Mr. Carlson, s lab for two days now he wants pay for it watching. I used to do that kind of thing my self at one time at one time when I worked but now am retired and to watch this video kind of brought it back to me. I will say he is good at what he does. He has more equipment than any that I have seen he must be a collector of electronics equipment. I will say it brought it back to me just to see him work.
