Philips RF8 Radiogram and Philips AG-1025 Record Player Service - 1965/66

Ғылым және технология

This is my third Philips RF8 radiogram I have serviced. They are a very good sounding radiogram and I am always amazed at the performance of these units. This one has some problems, no left channel and the record player doesn't work. This should be an easy fix... or is it. Join me while I probe the inner workings of this Philips masterpiece.

    Tbh I've turned a bit away from yt as there seems to be more "shorts" than actual videos. Not what I'm here to see. Not only are longer videos more entertaining but the main thing is that they're informative. I would never of dreamed if pulling a radio apart but since my uncle sent me one of your videos I've become impatient waiting for your next (after I'd gone back and watched all your previous) I've tried watching others and some aren't too bad but others I don't last 5 minutes. So yeah I eagerly await your next with the hope of it being a multiple parts vid giving me more to watch lol. Especially love the cabinet restoration ones. Keep up the great work and never think that we are getting "bored" with them

    What I like about your channel is you're always progressing with your production, editing and presentation. No one can accuse you of being stale. Another great repair and restore, really impressed with how you have developed your workshop to take on more tasks and become almost totally self sufficient in all areas.

    Hi David. As always, a pleasure to watch. In this case the editing was next level! I've never been a fan of the speeded up video. It does get over used and abused but in this case you nailed it! I also loved the globe from your "field" dim bulb tester rotating up to the top left. Ok small things impress me. As luck would have it, the "up next" video was your STC A5130 from 4 years ago. Your first radio video, I think, unless you deleted some. An interesting comparison from several viewpoints. No, I wasn't laughing at it. It was still entertaining and had a rawness about it that I quite enjoyed. Remember that at the time you did it, it was still better than anything else around. A bit like comparing an FX Holden with an HSV Commodore! My point, when I eventually get to it, is that it gives me hope that I can also continue to improve what I do. Anyway, thanks again for a great evening's entertainment Cheers

As you say, we improve as we go along as you have done with your work, you videos are very enjoyable. Thanks Don 👍🙂

    Incredibly informative! Thank you! I inherited a Grundig KS620U from my great grandparents, and everyone has been too scared to take apart the turntable (same model), which hasn't worked in about 30 years. Thanks to this, I was able to take it apart and find out exactly what was wrong with it in about 5 minutes. The motor's pretty seized. I'm attempting to grease it up, but family rumor has it that it was left on for quite some time when it stopped working, so I may have to get a new motor.

  • @DavidTipton101

    @DavidTipton101

    Күн бұрын

    Good to hear stories like this Buddy. The bearings in the motor are Oilite (sintered bronze) bushings, they are porous and designed to hold oil within. There is a felt oil pad surrounding the bushing as an extra source of oil. If grease is applied to the bushings it blocks the pores and no oil can get to the friction surface. If you have applied grease you will need to dismantle the motor and soak the bearing end caps to dissolve the grease. Then soak them in light motor oil for 24 hours, warmed if possible. Hopefully you can clean the shaft and reoil the bearings it to get it going again. Good luck 👍🙂

    Beautiful job. Such intricate work on the turntable. The radiogram is so classy and elegant and isn't it lovely to hear AM produced by a decent tuner. The one in my car has such poor selectivity it sometimes plays two stations at once. I think (I may be completely wrong) that Australia is one of the few countries that still broadcasts AM nationally because it carries so well over big distances. 😊

    I've been looking forward to your next video David, and as usual, I am not disappointed! As others have mentioned, you're tweeking your recording skills to another level. I don't usually speed up your presentations (as I definitely have - while watching other presentations). But if I need to slow down your "speed-ups", I can always slow them down due to the magic of YT. BTW...I like how you sometimes mention somethings probably good enough, but your perfectionism brings you back to give it another try. That's one thing that I really appreciate! Great Job!

    Hi Dave, really great video! I always enjoy your work on phonographs, and learn something every time! I’m working up the nerve to tackle a ‘47 Philco AM/FM/phono unit my grandparents bought new. In the meantime, your earlier videos where you did some transformer rewinds have me attempting to resurrect a ‘36 Stewart Warner that my other grandparents got new. I’ve still got a lot to learn, so keep ‘em coming!

I've repaired hundreds of similar decks and not had that wow problem but I'll keep a fresh eye out for that in future. I have slowed the speeds down by running the motor spindle on fine wet and dry paper to reduce its diameter slightly. Regards Jonathan
