Even just "engaged" without "wide" or "theoretical" you might prefer it. It's a great fun thing. I have one, its a long term project, I have an upgrade kit coming which I think is just new caps, and I'll get the RCA's changed for something better (bolt through surface mounted) as modern interconnects are a bit too wide for the holes in the chassis. Great video, thanks for taking the time and the research. I feel lucky to have picked one of these up in the UK in great condition.

Can you explain how you’re biasing the 2N2222A transistor? What confuses me is how you determined the 33K resistor value and the -7.4VDC that it connects to (yes you said you measured the -7.4V, but that’s after you built the circuit.). To put a finer point on my question, why bias the 2N2222A with that resistor topology rather than the traditionally shown voltage dividers/diode biasing we see with class-B amplifiers in numerous online examples?

@Big-hg5zf29 күн бұрын
@@AllAmericanFiveRadio Thanks for the links (and I did watch them) but they do not answer my question. Maybe I didn’t ask the question clearly? So, some background: (1) I know how to bias a transistor’s base for an amplifier using a resistive voltage divider and also how to calculate the values of the resistor divider before building the circuit; and (2) you are not using that traditional topology for base biasing, instead you are tying the top of the resistor divider (33K and 9.4k=4.7K+4.7K) to the _OUTPUT_ of the push-pull pair before the DC blocking capacitor. My reframed quesiton: The output of the push-pull pair changes with the input signal to the 2N2222A as a consequence of the gain of circuit, i.e. the the DC offset being added to the input signal, at the base of the 2N2222A, will change with push-pull pair output, causing that delta to also be multiplied by the amplifier’s gain. This would, I think, cause nonlinearity in the amplifier and distort the signal, increasing THD. Was it just trial an error on how you selected the 33K and 4.7K resistors? Or did you actually compute the values? If it is the later, could explain your process for doing so?

@@AllAmericanFiveRadio Thanks for the links (and I did watch them) but they do not answer my question. Maybe I didn’t ask the question clearly? So, some background: (1) I know how to bias a transistor’s base for an amplifier using a resistive voltage divider and also how to calculate the values of the resistor divider before building the circuit; and (2) you are not using that traditional topology for base biasing, instead you are tying the top of the resistor divider (33K and 9.4k=4.7K+4.7K) to the _OUTPUT_ of the push-pull pair before the DC blocking capacitor. My reframed quesiton: The output of the push-pull pair changes with the input signal to the 2N2222A as a consequence of the gain of circuit, i.e. the the DC offset being added to the input signal, at the base of the 2N2222A, will change with push-pull pair output, causing that delta to also be multiplied by the amplifier’s gain. This would, I think, cause nonlinearity in the amplifier and distort the signal, increasing THD. Was it just trial an error on how you selected the 33K and 4.7K resistors? Or did you actually compute the values? If it is the later, could explain your process for doing so?
@@Big-hg5zf The purpose is simple, it is to get people to experiment.
@@AllAmericanFiveRadio Alright, thank you for your time.
@@Big-hg5zf I have worked many years in several electronic labs with hardware and software engineers. These labs cost multiple millions. It would be wonderful if all circuits could be calculated, then you would not need the labs.
Great demonstration and something to look out for thanks
I made this video because a friend built my AM Transmitter. He said that it worked but he was getting a Hum. I asked him where he had his Transmitter set up. It was next to the Electrical Breaker Box. He moved the Transmitter and now no Hum. Thanks Bill
Thanks for sharing this RCA tape recorder nice solid unit
Thank you.
I watched this video years ago. I remember we had this recorder when we were kids. I picked one up from eBay recently. It works but I think it needs a new belt. Have you ever had yours apart or replaced the belt? You sure did a great a job on it! Looks new! Thank you.
I don’t remember if I replaced the belt. You can find a good replacement in a good hardware store. Take your old belt with you and look through the “O”Rings. Thank you, and your welcome!
@@AllAmericanFiveRadio Great! I will check out the local hardware store. Thank you so much for the advice!
Great tip really appreciate the effort you go to help us all out in the radio hobby community
I'm glad to help. Im hoping this site help people for years. Thank you, Bill!
I plan to go every year and then something happens. Maybe next year and I’ll look for a guy taking photos! Thx for showing what I missed. 73
Tom i have missed several over the years. It is amazing how much equipment was on display. Thank you, and your welcome. 73
Excellent explanation thank you
I hope the videos helped. Thanks!!
Excellent video explaining back EMF thank you
Thank you, and your welcome.
thanks for this! I have been looking into and trying to learn amplifier design for a while, this makes the actual fundamentals finally click!
I’m glad this video has helped!! Thank you, and your welcome.
Hi Rick my question is regarding the choke coil. Does the coil stop the FR passing through it due to the magnetic field that it sets up and only allowing DC through? Thanks Bill
Hey Bill, it is the Moving magnetic field that produces impedance. Here are two videos that mat help. Impedance, Back EMF, AC Resistance kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2VltcSmiLO_YZs.html Impedance Back EMF Practical Demonstration kzread.info/dash/bejne/fKZ9matyY7vgic4.html
Thats amazing how that works
It is still fascinating!
