Antique Radio Technical Forum
Airline console

Posted by Daveloves on 09/30/2005 03:29

NORM, have to ask you for some help since you seem to know an awful lot of stuff, just looking at how many different people you write to. Sorry i have no idea about the aircarft console. I wondered if you have any information on Echo-Mate Reverbs? I have just gotten my second one and really need some help.
hope you can tell me something. ( has power going into and out of the internal transformer but won't power up the internal power light which i tested and it works. I just want to make sure it powers all the way, before i go through all the trouble tring to wiring it all up under my dash.
Please help if you can. Email me at the following two addresses. dfsr1@verizon.net and superiorfiresafety@msn.com
Hi Mike
:
: Is there hum with volume turned down?
:
: If not has any shielded wire been replaced? Is the 1st audio amplifier tube shielded?
:
: When the volume control can be turned down and hum goes away it's usually not electrolytic filter caps. Radios may have a little hum but it shouldn't be heard while receiving a station.
:
: Wires going to the first audio amplifier should be shielded if they are longer than a couple inches. If non shielded wire is used there will be some hum. Try changing routing of any replaced wire around the volume control.

::Hello, Please excuse my ignorance but I need help. I have an Airline console(1930's) that hums. The humming increases with the volume control.Having trouble locating any remaining old-timers that know how to repair it and thought I might attempt it myself. Anyone on the forum any advice? Thanks
