EDITOR'S MEMO
The Night People
1 he seemingly unanswered cries ofshop owners for more technicians, andthe technician's laments about money,are not exactly parallel problems. Infact, being "underpaid" doesn't ap-pear to bother some technicians.
The procedure often referred to as"moonlighting" has a new twist. A ser-vice shop sends a technician on ahouse call. It turns out to be an ex-pensive TV repair problem. The setowner, feeling a twinge in the pocket-book, wishes out loud that there wasa less expensive way to enjoy his fa-vorite color program.
The technician mentions that hesometimes repairs sets at home in hisspare time. Since his overhead is low,the repair cost will be greatly reduced.To many a man with a sick color set,a family intent on watching TV and amoth -filled pocketbook, it's a deal. Af-ter all, the technician must be reliable;he works for a reputable service shop.If it means a smaller repair cost and(often) a faster job, why not?
The customer informs the shopowner that the repair is too costly andhe will wait awhile. The shop ownermay realize what's happening, butwhat can he do about it? Techniciansclaim that they need night work tosubsidize their low salary, and shopowners take a soft attitude. They can'tafford to lose the technician-someeven feel lucky if the technician useshis own rather than the shop facilities.The situation is, of course, a productof increased service work and fewermen to do the job. The money is mere-ly the clincher.
In today's TV business, a servicetechnician might earn as much as$100 a week in home repairs-most ofit picked up through shop contacts. Asone technician bluntly put it, "If I getfired, I'll stay home and earn as muchas I do at the shop."

NEW PRODUCTSCircuit Breaker/Fuse 700Adaptable to chemical or amp fuse socket
Introduced are circuit breakers with amp fuse pins. In TV repair involvinga blown chemical or amp fuse, several fuses can be blown before the troubleis found. This can be expensive and if a jumper is used, it can cause extensivedamage. The FA fuse, which fits in the same socket as the chemical oramp fuse, can eliminate this problem because it can be reset as often asneeded, or until the cause of breakdown is found. The FA fuse can beleft in the set after the repair is made. Model numbers FA350-1, FA1000-Iand FA2000-1 have the same carry and break currents as the chemicalfuses with the same model number. Workman.
DEALER SHOWCASEIndoor Clock -Sign 701Internal illumination and built-in clock give additional life and utilityAn animated indoor clock -sign is introduced to help dealers identify theirhome products. Dealer identification is given added impact by a "moving"home products logo and a stylized home and antenna. Bands of red, blue,green and white (suggesting color TV reception) flow from the antennainto the home. Internal fluorescent illumination and a built-in electric clockgive the sign additional "life" and utility. Dealers add their individual messagesto the signs using acetate letter sets inserted in a track on the panel. Thesign, 15 x 37 in. in size, can be set up, suspended or wall -mounted. Jerrold.
NEW PRODUCTSFM Window Antenna 702Solves reception problems where a rooftop antenna is prohibited
Announced is a window -mounted FM turnstile antenna, a solution to receptionproblems in apartment buildings and other locations where a rooftop antennacannot be installed. The all -direction antenna is designed for receptionover the full FM band from 88 to 108 MHz without necessity for rotation.The two folded dipoles are matched with a quarter wave phasing stubfor optimum gain and an approximately circular pick-up pattern. The all-aluminum antenna has a gold corrosion -proof finish and carries a listprice of $16.95. The antenna can be mounted either horizontally or verticallyto fit any type of window with a span up to 42in. For wider or higherwindows, two extension mount bars are available: the Model FCW-18, whichextends the mounting an additional 18in. and carries a list price of $2.97,and the Model FCW-30 which extends the mounting an additional 30in.and has a list price of $3.25.

There is a difference.When our engineers designed ourLPV Log Periodic antennas, theyadded something that made ourantennas really different:
1 Patented capacitor -coupled logperiodic -V dipoles that operate onboth the fundamental and har-monic modes for higher gain andfront -to -back ratios than otherVHF antennas with more elements.
2. Log Periodic trapezoid driversfor amazingly high (but uniform)frequency response on all UHFchannels.
3. Radar -type disc -on -rod direc-tor system that vastly increasessignal capture across entire UHFband. Rejects multi -path re-flections.
Is it any wonder JFD Color Laserand LPV Log Periodic TV anten-nas outperform antennas larger insize and number of elements?
Is it any wonder why profes-sional installers who count onantenna gain (not the elementnumbers game) prefer JFD - thescientifically designed antennawith the college education?

Hot Chassis
Without going into the details of mynear tragedy, I found out that a pieceof equipment with a transformer pow-er supply had a "hot" chassis. I wasworking on one of the better, higher -priced CB transceivers, but it couldhave been any brand. The unit wasblowing fuses and yet B+, filamentsand the 110vac circuits tested normal.The chassis was hot through the trans-former laminations which provided acontact between the primary and sec-ondary. The oxide and shellac on thelaminations isolated the core from thechassis and caused the unit to act likean autotransformer. When I attemptedto attach the antenna coaxial connec-tor, I got the full jolt-certainly morethan 11 Ovac!

heard because of the location and the power of the stationswhich are communicating with each other. The squelchcircuit silences the radio when a large amount of noise isbeing received. The desired signal must be moderatelystrong, stronger than the noise. Example: if a police broad-cast is being heard and the SQUELCH control is set to thepoint where disturbing background noises just disappear,the police broadcast will still be heard. When the stationstops transmitting (standby) no noise or weak stations willbe heard. This is possible because the SQUELCH control canbe set so that when the station stops transmitting, the re-ceiver "noise" increases and this "noise" is used to controlthe cutoff point of the audio amplifier.
The squelch control circuit can be used, only when theBAND SELECTOR is in the VHF position. When switch SWI-Ais in the AM or FM position, "noise" cannot reach thenoise amplifier to "cut off" the audio amplifier. When only
1,11
noise is present on the station, it will be amplified and fedto a rectifier circuit to provide bias voltages for the audioamplifiers. When an RF signal stronger than the noise isreceived, the noise will be blocked out. When noise is re-moved from the noise amplifier, the first audio stage cur-rent is reduced and the second audio stage is allowed toconduct normally.
The amount of noise received and the setting of theSQUELCH control determine the effectiveness of "squelch"action. The amount of noise amplified determines the rec-tified bias voltage to the first audio amplifier transistor. Thebias voltage of course controls the amount of currentthrough the collector to emitter circuit. Since the collectorof the first audio amplifier and the base of the second audioamplifier are common, an increase in the first audio col-lector current will result in a voltage decrease at the baseof the second audio amplifier. When the voltage at the baseof the second audio amplifier is low enough, it causes "cut-off." There is no output and noise is "squelched" until asignal from a transmitting station is received.

FM Multiplex Receiver Chassis 25Z7120-Biplex DetectorCircuit Description
The 121-347 PNP transistor used in the Biplex detectorcircuit, although not a bilateral transistor, exhibits bilateralcharacteristics. As a result, its function can be best ex-plained by the operation of a normal bilateral transistor.
A bilateral transistor is a special type in which the col-lector will serve as the emitter and the emitter will serveas the collector under certain conditions. When switchedby a properly applied ac voltage, in push-pull, sufficient invalue to overcome the cutoff bias normally applied, the bi-lateral transistor will pass current in both directions in ac-cordance with the alternations of the switching voltage. Theswitching voltage in this case is the regenerated 38kHz sub-carrier signal.
The transistor is not biased in the conventional manner.For the following refer to the illustration. The base isbiased at -16v while the collector and emitter are both
PlIER
IVli-1-,--1 I
TpI
Fioto 41__J 1
DMA WOW e(*)19MA/ WA SANDS
biased at -19v (as shown at the center -tap, terminal No. 6of transformer T12). The -19 and -16 are obtainedfrom the voltage divider consisting of the 1.2K and 470slresistors and TR12. Note that the collector and emitter areconnected to the opposite ends of the 38kHz output trans-former secondary winding (part of T12). Under no -switch-ing voltage conditions, the transistor is biased to cut offdue to the 3v difference between the 16v at the base andthe 19v at the emitter. To forward bias the transistor andcause current flow, the voltage at the emitter must be posi-tive or less negative than the voltage at the base. The re-quired forward bias is supplied by regenerated 38kHz sub-carrier (a CW signal) when the value of the 38kHz voltage
32ELECTRONIC TECHNICIAN/DEALER
exceeds the reverse bias between base and emitter.Referring to the illustration showing the input and output
waveforms of the 38kHz switching signal only, note that
-20v

J
the upper 38kHz input wave supplies the positive bias fromthe emitter to the base on the first half -cycle. At the sametime, the lower wave supplies the negative bias from thecollector to the base. During the second half -cycle the re-verse is true, but the action of the transistor is the samedue to the bilateral effect.

Okay, so you don't have the biggest, plushestshowroom in town.
That's fine with Setchell Carlson. We'd be pleasedto have you as a dealer. And we think you'll be pleasedif you become a Setchell Carlson dealer.
Why? Because we make every effort to pleaseboth you and your customers. Ours is the most reliablebrand you can find-ask any SC owner (or educationaluser or tv broadcast engineer). What's more,components in a Setchell Carlson exceed necessarycapacities. This means your customers experience farfewer circuitry failures. And far more satisfaction.
However, even the nest components sometimes fail.Should repairs become necessary, no other receiveris easier and faster to service. Because our Unit-Ized'chassis slips out for easy, quick repair or replacement.And since each of these units serves a single function,you can isolate trouble much faster. Best of all,Unit-Ized construction allows 99% of all SetchellCarlson service calls to be completed in the home!(How's that for a customer pleaser?) And there's nooutlay for additional servicing equipment.

Setchell Carlson's
Model 2900 Portable Color TVCircuit study and plug-in construction can shortentroubleshooting time, making servicing more profitable
Every day we see more solid-state or hybrid circuitry on themarket employing etched circuitboards. This particular receiverrepresents a balance betweensolid-state and vacuum tube tech-nology.
Setchell Carlson is continuingits unitized concept and nowemploys an aluminum base chas-sis construction with ten etch-ed "plug-in" circuit board units.
This type of construction pro-vides the separation of circuitfunctions and aids in more eco-nomical servicing. The circuitboard substitution method allowsfaster isolation of the troubleand most repairs can be accom-plished in the home.
When we unpacked the Set-chell Carlson Model 2900 forthis Teklab report, the first thing

When an external UHF an-tenna is used, the internal UHFantenna must be removed.
When the set was first turn-ed on, we were not overly im-pressed with the picture qual-ity. It happened to be an ear-ly model lacking the AGC modi-fications to the tuner and oth-er minor changes to several ofthe plug-in circuits. Once thesemodifications and the plug-incircuits from the manufactur-er were installed, the set pro-duced a good picture.
The modification made onthe tuner AGC circuitry is pro-vided here for comparison pur-poses and also as a point of in-terest to those with earlier pro-duction units. The tuner AGCcircuitry shown in Fig. 1 is usedon all Model 2900s and 2800sother than early production mod-els. Optimum performance willbe obtained from the new ZB-101 units with present tunerAGC circuitry. The tuner AGCcircuitry can be checked with-out removing the chassis byobserving the tuner through
the slots in the bottom of thecabinet. The tuner incorporatesthe latest AGC circuitry if the27K resistor is present on thetuner. If not, it can be modifiedin the following manner: CheckC29 and C30 for connection asshown in the schematic. Addthe 220K resistor and silicondiode if required.
The chassis employed on thisportable is divided into ten plug-in units and a common chassisinto which they connect. Actual-ly there are nine plug-in circuits,the tenth being the circular con-vergence adjustments and re-lated solid-state circuitry in onecomplete package with electri-cal connections made througha plug and socket.
TUNER
The tuner shown in Fig. 1
is a conventional turret -typeconsisting of the RF amplifier(Q1), mixer (Q3) and the oscil-lator (Q2). With the VHF chan-nel -selector in the "UHF" po-sition, the UHF tuner is suppliedwith collector voltage througha segment of the channel strip.
Transistor Q31 is then activat-ed as a UHF oscillator.
VIDEO IF AND AGC ZB-101
Because of gain/bandwidthrequirements in many specialapplications for which this re-ceiver is often used, four vid-eo IF amplifiek stages are usedinstead of the usual two or three.The video IF and AGC schemat-ic is shown in Fig. 2. Rather thanthe conventional keyed AGC,an amplified sync system wasdeveloped to permit employ-ment in certain video tape ap-plications. Transistors Q101, 102,103 and 104 are video IF ampli-fiers. Signal for the 4.5MHz sounddetector, D102, is taken fromthe collector circuit of transis-tor Q104. The secondary of theoutput IF transformer, T102,includes a 41.25MHz trap whichremoves practically all of thesound signal from the video de-tector, D101. The video detectorsignal passes to transistor Q106,an emitter follower which matchesthe impedance of the detectorto the low impedance of the con-trast control and following stages.

Fig. 2 --Four stages of video IF are employed instead of the usual two or three. A special sync system permits cer-tain video tape application.
Capacitor C121 and diode D105comprise a very effective noisegate. All of the noise pulses inhigher amplitude than the aver-age determined by the sync pulselevel will be shorted betweencollector and emitter of Q106and thus prevent signal or AGCoutput. Positive -going sync sig-nals are formed in the collec-tor circuit of Q106, clipped bydiode D104, amplified and in-verted by transistor Q105 andapplied as reverse AGC to thefirst two stages of the videoIF amplifier. This signal is de-layed by D103, amplified andinverted by Q4, further delay-ed by D1 and applied to the tun-er RF stage as forward AGC.Forward AGC is used on thetuner for best cross -modulationcharacteristics, while reverseAGC is applied to the video IFstages to minimize impedanceshift with varying signal lev-els. The AGC is adjusted todetermine the detector out-put level on strong signals.

control is amplified by the firstvideo amplifier, Q201, passedthrough the delay line to bringit into phase with the chromasignal and further amplified inQ202 and V201. (See Fig. 3.)The luminance signal is fed to thecathode of the picture tube. If itis necessary to adjust the lumi-nance drive to compensate fordifferences in picture tube guncharacteristics, a resistor network(R51 and R52) is provided on thecathode drive socket. The plug-incathode connections may be ad-justed as required but are nor-mally used in the maximum driveposition.
Transistors Q203 and Q204are connected as a Darlingtonpair and comprise the first chromaand sync amplifiers. Diode D201and transistor Q205 act as synclevelers before feeding the syncsignal to the sync separator,transistor Q206. TransistorQ207 is a blanking amplifierwhich, together with diodesD203, D204 and D205, shapesthe horizontal and vertical blank-ing pulses from the deflectioncircuits and applies them to thecathode of the video output tube.
CHROMA OSC ZB-701
Chroma is receivedfrom the video -sync unit, (Fig.4) which is tuned by coil L701and matched to the low imped-ance of the color control by theemitter follower transistor Q701.It is further amplified by trans-istor Q702 and fed through thebandpass transformer (T701) tothe chroma demodulators on thechroma output unit. V701, theburst amplifier, is keyed on duringburst time by a pulse from thehorizontal output transformer.The amplifier burst is appliedthrough T702 to diodes D701 andD702 which act as automatic phasedetectors. Their output signalcontrols the phase of the chromaoscillator tube, V702, to keep itlocked in sync with the burstsignal. When the burst signal ispresent, diode D703 develops anegative voltage which biases offthe color killer transistor Q703.If no color signal is being received,Q703 conducts and cuts off Q702.
CHROMA OUTPUT ZB-751
The chroma and chroma oscil-
lator signals from ZB-701 areapplied to the balanced demod-ulators, diodes D751, 752, 753and 754. (See Fig. 5.) The B -Y andR -Y signals are derived directlyfrom the demodulators and ampli-fied by transistors Q751, Q752 andthe red and blue amplifier sectionsof tube V751. Green is derivedby matrixing the red and bluesignals. It is then amplified byits section of V751, after whichthe chroma is applied to the CRT.
4.5MHz SOUND IF AMPLIFIERUNIT ZB-301
The sound detector on ZB-101feeds its signal through a 4.5MHzamplifier transistor ( Q301), a lim-iter -amplifier transistor (Q302),and then to the ratio -detectordiodes D301 and D302. Their out-put is passed through the volumecontrol to audio amplifier ZB-401.
AUDIO AMPLIFIER ZB-401
The audio amplifier is con-ventional and consists of am-plifier transistors (Q401 andQ402) in a Darlington pair driv-ing a class "B" output stage (Q403

and Q404). Their output feedsa 16n speaker.
VERTICAL DEFLECTION UNITZB-601
The vertical deflection unitconsists of V601, the multivi-brator-amplifier tube and relatedcomponents. Its function is con-ventional except for diode D601,which permits the vertical syncsignal to be fed to the multivi-brator cathode but prevents thevertical retrace pulse from feed-ing back into and upsetting thehorizontal sync.
HORIZONTAL DEFLECTIONUNIT ZB-501
Horizontal sync is fed to aconventional phase detector(dual diode DD501) and usedto control the frequency of thehorizontal multivibrator tubeV501. (See Fig. 6.) The horizon-tal output tube V502 connectsto the output transformer. Thehigh voltage is regulated bytaking a reference voltage fromBoost B rand using it to controlthe regulator transistor Q501.Together with diodes D501 andD502. transistor Q501 regulatesthe high voltage by shaping V502'sgrid drive waveforms thus con-trolling the rate of change ofthe output plate current.
HORIZONTAL EFFICIENCYUNIT ZB-551
This unit (shown in Fig. 7) con-tains the damper diode D551 andthe efficiency control components.The horizontal efficiency coilL551 is adjusted for minimum6JE6 cathode current.

The power supply compo-nents are located on the mainchassis. Two separate full -wavesupplies are included. The 300vsupply feeds only the deflectioncircuits while the video outputcircuits are powered from the24v supply. (See Fig. 8.)

TV Tuner ServicingThere are times when it is profitableto repair a TV tuner, and times when
it is more profitable to send it to aspecialist --knowing the difference can
save you a lot of headaches
1II
.........r -_,
AGC TEST POINTFig. 1 --The first step in isolating the trouble
to a tuner is to check the AGC actionby shorting the AGC test point to ground.
The tuner takes more of abeating than any other sectionin a TV set. With the averagefamily watching TV 46 1/2 hoursper week, it has been estimat-ed that channels are changed3000 to 4000 times per year!This puts quite a strain on thetuner and therefore they accountfor a fair percentage of TV trou-bles. The following symptomsare typical of problems oftencaused by a defective tuner:
(1) "snowy" picture(2) raster, but no sound or
picture(3) loss of UHF channels(4) loss of high or low VHF
band channels(5) streaking or flashing in
the picture(6) separation of sound and
picture(7) picture pulling(8) picture distortion(9) partial blanking of the
raster
FIX IT FAST OR FORGET IT
In addition to being one ofthe most common sources oftrouble, the tuner is undoub-tedly the most difficult to re-pair. For one thing, mechani-cal problems which don't applyto any other part of the TV setmay be difficult or impossiblefor the average technician tocorrect, even if he knows pre-cisely what is wrong. For an-other, few shops have the equip-ment to sweep and align a TVtuner properly. Finally, at thefrequencies involved, strangethings can happen. Just mov-ing a critical part physicallycan make the tuner inoperative.
It is because of the difficul-ty of repairing tuners in thefield that repair and rebuild-ing specialists have sprung upall over the country. (See listof specialists at end of this ar-ticle.) For an average of $10,these businesses will restoreany tuner to top working order.
This brings us to the primerule of tuner repair: If you can't
40 ELECTRONIC TECHNICIAN/DEALER
fix it fast, forget it! Don't wastea lot of time trying to do some-thing you're not equipped todo. Remember, you are in busi-ness to make money and timeis your most precious asset. Itmay give you satisfaction tolick a tough tuner after a coupleof hours of struggling, but italso costs you money.
The professional way to han-dle tuner troubles is: (1) makesure it's the tuner that is caus-ing the trouble, (2) clean thetuner thoroughly, (3) check thetuner quickly for obvious trou-bles, (4) if the trouble is easyto find and easy to fix, go ahead,(5) if you think the trouble maytake more than an hour to findand repair, send it to a tunerspecialist.
MAKE SURE ITS THE TUNER
Before you start to trouble-shoot a TV tuner, make sureit is really the tuner that's atfault. IF and AGC troubles of-ten cause symptoms that ap-pear to be tuner problems.
If the picture is snowy, forexample, too much AGC voltagemay be the problem. This is easyenough to check out. Simplyshort the AGC test point (seeFig. 1) to the tuner ground. Thisreduces the AGC voltage to zero,enabling the RF amplifier tooperate at maximum gain.
If shorting out the AGC im-proves the picture significant-ly, the trouble is in the AGC.If not, it is probably in the tuner.AGC voltages normally measureabout -1.5v. If the voltage goesbelow -3v, it often causes snow.
However, it is also possiblefor snow to be caused by theIF stages. This is rare, but you'dfeel foolish sending a tuner infor repair only to find out it wasreally an IF trouble. Therefore,it pays to check this out.
If you have a good IF sweepgenerator and a scope, this is anideal way to check the IF stagesfor proper gain.
If not, you can accomplish
approximately the same effectwith a little improvising. Startwith a known good TV receiv-er connected to an antenna anddisplaying a normal picture. Then,connect the IF cable from thetuner of the normal receiver tothe IF input of the receiver youare repairing. Be sure that youconnect the shield of the IF cableto ground and that the centerconductor is isolated from thedefective receiver by a couplingcapacitor. Don't use an ac/dc orline connected TV set as your goodreceiver because there may be adifference in potential betweengrounds on the two chassis.
If substituting a good tunervia this method brings in a nor-mal picture, you know yourproblem is in the tuner. If not,it's undoubtedly a chassis prob-lem.
Substitution of a known goodtuner, (preferably a similar tuner)as described above is, of course,an excellent method of isolatingany tuner trouble, making surethe tuner is at fault.
START WITH A CLEAN TUNER
Technicians often forget thatdirty tuners just don't workvery well. Tuner specialists re-port that many of the units theyreceive for repair need noth-ing more than a thorough clean-ing. Intermittent troubles, snowypictures, streaking or flashingpictures, and poor color responseare all troubles commonly caus-ed by corrosion or dirt on con-tacts.
In fact, many troubles canbe caused by dirty contacts.If a tube socket is dirty, for ex-ample, the tube pin fails to makecontact and the circuit doesn'toperate properly.
The best way to clean a tun-er thoroughly is with a high pres-sure washing or degreasing sprayas shown in Fig. 2. Don't usea spray that includes a lubricant.These sprays are fine for tunersthat are working, but a pure clean-er is normally more effective than
a combination cleaner/lubricant.Of course, you have undoubt-
edly tried new tubes in the tun-er before starting your servic-ing procedure, but don't leavethem in their sockets. Removethe tubes from the tuner andspray it thoroughly, includingthe tube sockets.
HINT: Never spray the neu-tralizing capacitor in a Nuvis-tor tuner. Even the best tun-er spray can cause permanentdetuning if used on this capac-itor.
TUNER CHECKUPOnce the tuner is clean, give
it a fast but thorough checkup.Remove the cover and start witha visual inspection. But be care-ful not to poke around inside thetuner or disturb the placementof components. Once a wire orcoil is moved, it's almost im-possible to get it back into theproper operating positionalignment equipment.
If your preliminary inspec-tion reveals a shorted or gas-sy tube, chances are that ex-cessive current has burned upor changed the value of a resis-tor. Burned resistors, of course,are easy to spot visually.
If your visual inspection re-veals no problems, make volt-age checks at the test pointsprovided. B + test points aremost likely to reveal trouble(some tuners have two or threeB +test points). Check the sche-matic for proper voltages. Yourreadings should be accuratewithin ± 20%.
Then make voltage -resistancechecks at the tube sockets. Sincetuners are so compact, the eas-iest way to do this is with a testsocket.
You can't expect the tunerto operate properly with testsockets in the circuit, but thevoltage and resistance readingsshould be fairly accurate.
If you read a low plate or screenvoltage it generally indicatesthat a series resistor has chang-

ed value or a capacitor goingto ground is leaky or shorted.If the voltage change is inter-mittent, you can usually isolatethe defective part by sprayingcomponents with freezing so-lution.
A dead oscillator is most of-ten caused by a defective plateload resistor. You can tell wheth-er the oscillator is working ornot simply by checking the os-cillator injector voltage at themixer grid test point. In a tubedtuner, this voltage should beabout -1.5 to -3.5v.
In a solid-state tuner, youcan tell whether or not the os-cillator is working by checkingat the base of the oscillator. Youshould read about -1 or -2v. How-ever, in many solid-state tun-ers it's difficult to take this read-ing and you may be better offsending the tuner to a special-ist for repair.
In making resistance checks,don't overlook the balun coils.Defective baluns can often causesnow or loss of high and lowVHF bands. Careful resistancetests will usually turn up balunproblems quickly. Since thereare such a wide variety of balunconfigurations, however, it isimperative that you check theschematic before jumping toany conclusions.
Internal tuner voltages andresistances can be very diffi-cult to check. In many modernTV sets, for example, you haveto take out the UHF tuner inorder to get at the VHF tuner.(See Fig. 3). Some tuners, espe-cially foreign made and solid-state tuners, are simply too com-pact to get at. In this case, you'reusually better off sending thetuner out for repair.
REPLACING DEFECTIVE PARTSOnce you locate a defective
component in a tuner, your prob-lem is to reach it without dis-turbing a lot of wires. Tunerspecialists use tiny solderingirons and slim tools.
Be sure you obtain an exact
replacement for the defectivepart if possible. Otherwise thetuner may work, but not prop-erly.
Many of the problems youspot will not be easy to correct,especially mechanical problems.
If the defective part can be re-placed with an exact replace-ment, be very careful. Cut leadlengths to the exact length ofthe original and substitute thenew part for the old one with-out disturbing lead dress orcoils. Lead dress is especiallycritical in UHF tuners.
HOW TO SEND A TUNER
Let's suppose that you'veisolated the trouble to the tun-er, given it a thorough clean-ing, replaced the tubes, test-ed it and decided to send it outfor repair. There is a right way.
You'll save yourself a lot ofheadaches if you follow this pro-cedure:
(1) Disconnect the wires go-ing to the tuner, but don't un-solder them. Clip them witha pair of diagonal cutters, leav-ing a little of each colored wireon the terminals. This will makeit easy for you to reconnect thetuner to the chassis once youget it back, without relying onyour memory or taking the timeto make a drawing.
(2) Remove the mounting brack-ets from the tuner and fastenthem to the chassis. This waythey won't be lost. Lost brack-ets can take weeks or monthsto replace and impossible toexplain to an irate customer.
(3) Do not remove the tubes.Leave them snugly in their sock-ets. Tuners should always bealigned with the tubes the cus-tomer is going to use, so tubesmust be included. Make surethe tubes are in the center ofthe package and surround theentire tuner with at least 2 in.of other packing material.
You can make money with tun-er repairs if you use a commonsense, professional approach.

POST MARKER
COLOR TVSWEEP ALIGNMENT
Boost your efficiency in sweep alignmentby reviewing some practical procedures
using a post marker generator
1381K Model 415 solid-state sweep/marker generator.
Sencore Model SM152 sweep and marker generator.
Heath Model IG-57 TV post-marker/sweep generator.
A tuned amplifier, such asthe IF amplifier in a televisionreceiver, is designed to passa band of frequencies and re-ject frequencies outside of thisband. For example, a color tele-vision IF amplifier is designed topass frequencies between 41.67and 46.75MHz and reject fre-quencies below 41.25 and above47.25MHz. This wide passbandis obtained by having several IFstages each tuned to a differentpart of the band -- stagger tuned.
Alignment of this amplifierusing a standard signal gener-ator is difficult because eachstage has to be aligned individu-ally and the over-all responsechecked laboriously recordingthe output as the input frequencyis changed in small steps acrossthe band. Plotting the outputagainst frequency on a graphprovides a response pattern.
If you were able to tune thefrequency of the signal gener-ator at a constant rate back andforth across the frequency bandof interest, you could observethe output (after detection) onan oscilloscope and actually seethe response of the amplifier.This is what a sweep generatordoes. The output signal from thegenerator is a constantly chang-ing frequency over a selectedrange as determined by the tuningand sweep width settings of thegenerator. The rate at which theoutput is swept is low. For conven-ience it is normally set at the fre-quency of the ac line.
Markers are added to the re-sponse curve to show the fre-quency accurately at differentparts of the curve. They aregenerated by amplifying the lowfrequencies on each side of thezero beat that develops whenthe frequency of the sweep sig-nal passes through the markeroscillator frequency. Genera-ting markers external to theamplifier under test and addingthem to the response curve iscalled post injection. It is super-ior to a pre -injection system inwhich the marker signal is fedto the amplifier along with thesweep signal, because pre -in-jection markers can distort the
44 ELECTRONIC TECHNICIAN/DEALER
response curve or become lostin traps making sweep align-ment more difficult.
THE COLOR TV IF RESPONSECURVE
The ideal color TV IF responsecurve is shown in Fig. 1. Youshould become totally familiarwith this curve because it canbe an excellent troubleshootingaid. Note that the top of the curveshown is flat. However, somesets will have a dip in the top;others (the newer color sets)may have a rounded or "haystack" top.
The shape of the response curveskirts is also very important. Thepicture carrier (45.75MHz) andthe color sub carrier (42.17MHz)are approximately at the 50 per-cent points on the skirts. Colorsignal information 0.5MHz away(41.67MHz) must still pass throughthe amplifier, but the sound car-rier (41.25MHz) must be trappedout so this skirt has a fairly steepslope. The opposite slope is notquite as steep, but should riselinearly for best recovery of lowfrequency video information. Theupper adjacent channel picturecarrier (39.75MHz) and the loweradjacent channel sound carrier(47.25MHz) must be trapped outto prevent interference. Theamplifier has minimum or zerogain at these frequencies.
There are a number of thingsthat will affect the responsecurve. For example, if a trapis misadjusted it will be impos-sible to get the correct curveand a lot of time can be wastedif this is not recognized. Oneor more weak stages will alsogive a poor curve, so the tubesshould always be checked or sub-stituted before alignment isattempted. The design of anamplifier takes into accountthe internal tube capacity. Whentubes are replaced in an amp-lifier, a different internal capa-city could upset the alignment.
TV RECEIVER ALIGNMENTHINTS AND PRECAUTIONS
Disable the HV applied to the
CRT. This can be done by remov-ing the plate cap from the hori-zontal output tube. Then connectthe load specified by the manu-facturer from B to ground toapply the proper load to the lowvoltage power supply.
Another method of remov-ing hash and interference onthe response curve, sometimescalled "grass" (Fig. 2), is caus-ed by the horizontal output tube.One of the easiest ways to elimi-nate the radiation is to removethe tube from its socket. In serieswired receivers a dummy tube maybe used or a resistor placed acrossthe filament pins on the socket.If a compactron tube is used, thefilament pins are 1 and 12. Thenovar filament pins are 4 and 5.Connect a voltmeter across theresistor to be sure the voltagedrop is equal to the filament volt-age of the tube.
Interference from the verticalcircuits is generally a spike thatwill drift through the responsecurve and cause distortion as itpasses through. This type of inter-ference is caused by the verticalfrequency difference between theTV set and the sweep generator.Many sets have a "setup" switchthat can be used to disable the ver-tical deflection system and elim-inate the vertical interference.
Use care when adjusting atransformer or coil that has twoslugs as each slug may havetwo positions that appear totune to the correct frequency.The position farthest out fromthe center of the coil form iscorrect; the position near thecenter of the coil form is incor-rect because of coupling fromone coil to the other.
Use only the proper cablesthat are supplied with the gener-ator. Be sure the RF cable isterminated with its proper impe-dance. Keep the leads from theterminated cable as short aspossible at the point of connec-tion to the receiver under test.
Check that there are no groundloops between the pieces of equip-ment. This is done by observingthe trace on the oscilloscope whiletouching each piece of equipment.If the trace moves or changes
shape, check all ground connec-tions. It may become necessaryco ground all the cables at onecommon point.
Do not dress the sweep gen-erator output leads or demod-ulation input cable leads overthe IF board, IF coils or tubesas it may result in detuning oroscillation in the section undertest.
Use bias voltages as speci-fied by the set manufacturerof the receiver under test.
More accurate trap adjust-ments can be obtained by re-ducing the bias on the IF. Pre-vent overload of the IF circuitsby reducing RF signal from thegenerator.
Set the oscilloscope verticalgain control near its most sen-sitive position and keep the sweepgenerator output as low as pos-sible. This will prevent over-loading the IF amplifiers witha sweep signal which may pro-duce an improper curve.
GENERATORFEATURES
The post marker generatorproduces accurate markers atthe IF and RF frequencies spe-cified by most manufacturers.
The generator mixes the mark-er signal with the demodulat-ed signal from the circuit be-ing tested or aligned. Markersare normally well defined andshould not alter or distort theresponse curve of the circuitsinvolved. Therefore, the oscil-loscope will show the actual wave-

ZENITH SPEED ALIGNERGENERATOR OPERATION
The heart of this typical gen-erator is the sweep oscillator.A dual triode, operated in paral-lel to provide adequate poweroutput, is connected in a modi-fied colpitts arrangement withits tank circuit -center tunedto 43.5MHz. The tank includesa variable inductance shownin Fig. 3 whose reactance de-pends on the amplitude of cur-rent flowing through it. By pro-viding a current of the properphase, shape and amplitude,the inductance of the oscillatorchanges at a given rate, thusproducing a frequency devia-tion which is used to providethe required sweep frequen-cy output. This method is su-perior to sweep techniques usinga synchronous motor and to aspeaker system with a special-ly designed spider driving asweep capacitor.
Markers are produced by firstsupplying a sample of the sweptoscillator voltage to a set of crys-tals. The sample voltage is ofsufficient amplitude to allowthe crystal to "ring," or oscil-late at its natural frequency.The resultant oscillator volt-age is then detected, amplifiedand shaped to provide the prop-er output marker "pip" displayon the scope. A block diagramof this generator is shown in Fig.4.
The 40MHz sweep oscillatoris also used to provide the ne-cessary signal for UHF tuneralignment. The principle of op-eration is similar to that encoun-tered in a normal superhetero-dyne receiver: an oscillator fre-quency mixes with an RF sig-
46 ELECTRONIC TECHNICIAN/DEALER
nal to provide an IF output. TheIF signal is then mixed withan oscillator frequency and theresultant RF frequency can beused as the signal source forthe alignment of the UHF pre-
selector circuits. The resultantoutput from the UHF tuner an-tenna terminals is detected andthen amplified for proper os-cilloscope display. A UHF mark-er at the channel sound carrierfrequency is injected at the de-tector to provide a means oftracking the oscillator rotorto a given calibration standard.A 50-0-50 microammeter is pro-vided to show injection voltageat all times when a UHF tun-er is being swept or adjusted.
DETERMINING THE ACCU-RACY OF THE SCOPE FORSWEEP ALIGNMENT
The oscilloscope is an impor-tant tool in sweep alignment.If it has poor low frequency re-sponse, a phase shift in the ver-tical amplifier or a phase shiftbetween the horizontal and ver-tical amplifier, the responsecurve on the scope screen canbe misleading as to the actualcondition of the television re-ceiver. Any of the above con-ditions can distort the responsecurve enough to give inaccur-ate results when the TV set isaligned. The Sencore SM152provides an ultra linear sweepand a flat, automatically con-trolled output which allows atest of the scope before align-ment is started. Once the scopeis tested, the results can be tak-en into consideration duringalignment to provide greateraccuracy.
The following procedure il-lustrates the use of the SM152to test an oscilloscope response:
1. Set the sweep marker genera-tor to the 10-55MHz range andthe tuning dial to about 43MHz.Set the sweep width to 15MHz.
2. Connect the RF cable us-
ing the 300f1 matching pad tothe detector probe (blue lead)input and the scope vertical in-put to the SCOPE V jack onthe generator.
3. Adjust the scope verticalgain until a usable pattern isachieved. If the scope has nophase shift and normal low fre-quency response, the patternshould appear as shown in Fig.5.
If it has a poor low frequen-cy response, the pattern willappear as shown in Fig. 6. Themore the pattern bows or tilts,the more undesirable the lowfrequency response. Some bow-ing or tilting of the pattern isacceptable, but it should be tak-en into consideration when ad-justing the television receiv-er. Other scope deficiencies areshown in Fig. 7 and 8. If anyof these problems appear toexcess, they will affect the re-sponse curve of the TV set.
The signal at the SCOPE Hjack is about 60v P -P. This volt-age is high enough to provideadequate horizontal drive formost scopes, but may overloadsome. This may be avoided byshunting the horizontal inputterminals with a suitable resis-tor. Turn the horizontal gaincontrol down about 1/3 frommaximum gain and try a fewvalues of shunt resistor untilfinding one which gives aboutfull screen deflection. For theSencore PS148, a suitable val-ue would be about 330K. Afterthe resistor is connected, theHORIZONTAL PHASE adjust-ment oil the rear of the SM152must be reset in accordance withthe manufacturers instructions.This adjustment will be set oncefor the scope used.
The next article will coveractual applications of sweepmarker generators in the align-ment of the TV receiver tun-er, IF, chroma bandpass andthe RF and IF amplifiers in FMreceivers.

Solid -State Horizontal Deflection Systems The horizontal-deflection sy-stem employed in the RCA CTC40chassis is believed to be uniquein television designs currentlyon the market. The switchingaction required to generate scanand retrace yoke current, as wellas high voltage pulses, is accom-plished by two bipolar switches,each consisting of an SCR and afast -recovery diode. The essen-tial components of the system,including the high -voltage regu-lator, are shown in Fig. 1.
By using resonant LC circuitsin the design of the systems,switching transients, which mightdamage the solid-state devices, areavoided. Also, the total voltageacross the combination of theyoke and Cl is very low (approach-ing zero) during trace, and risesto only about 400v during retrace.
The circuits will be thorough-ly explained later but for themoment assume that the traceswitch is closed during scan timeand the retrace switch is clos-
ed during retrace time. There-fore, during scan time, the yokeand Cl are connected togetherin a resonant circuit whose periodis roughly twice one horizontal -retrace interval. During retrace,the retrace switch is closed andthe trace switch is opened. Inthis configuration, the yoke andCl become part of a resonantcircuit whose period is about twicethe horizontal -retrace interval.
RETRACE INTERVALAt a point about 312 s before
the end of a horizontal scan,near the right edge of the raster,SCR2 starts to conduct by apositive trigger from the hori-zontal blocking oscillator. Theconditions which exist in thecircuit just after SCR2 is trig-gered into conduction are shownin Fig. 2. The charge on C2, 270to 300v, causes electron flowthrough the yoke an Cl to groundand then through SCR2 and
Ll to C2. Current also beginsto flow from C3 to ground, upthrough SCR2, Ll and back tothe opposite side of C3. Sinceeach of these circuits is reso-nant, current rises sinusoidallyrather than instantaneously.At the time SCR2 is driven intoconduction, a current of about4a already is flowing in the yoke,Cl and SCR1. As the current fromC2 increases toward 4a, the cur-rent through SCR1 decreasestoward zero. When the currentfrom C2 exceeds the yoke cur-rent, the additional current fromC2 passes through CR1, SCR2,Ll and back to C2. This conduc-tion through CR1 removes for-ward bias from the anode ofSCR1, causing cutoff.
The conditions at the startof retrace are shown in Fig. 3A.Current through the yoke hasreached maximum at the momentretrace begins and thereforethe field around it is maximum.Then the field begins to collapse,

With this troubleshooting method,
you should have no difficulty servicing SCR sweep systems
causing the yoke to be the energysource for retrace deflection.Since electrog flow is from posi-tive to negative within a source(as in a battery, for instance),the top of the yoke (junctionof the yoke and C2) swings posi-tive. This cuts off CR1, and SCR1cannot conduct because no triggerpulse is present at its gate. Thetrace switch is open during re-trace. The yoke current decreasesfrom its maximum value at thebeginning of retrace to zero about5.5ps later, because of circuitresonance.
Once the yoke current hasdropped to zero, it increasessinusoidally in the opposite di-rection and rises to a maximumvalue of about 4a. This completesthe retrace deflection of theCRT. The resonant circuit of whichthe yoke is a part during retraceconsists of the yoke itself, capac-itators Cl, C2 and C3. The reso-nant frequency of this circuit isabout 45.5kHz, so the time re-quired for, one cycle is about 22ps.( F= 2 7T VI T). During retrace,current in the yoke changed frommaximum in one direction to maxi-mum in the opposite direction --only one-half of a cycle requiringabout lips retrace time.
During retrace time, a secondresonant circuit Fig 3B also is ofinterest. This circuit consists ofLl and C3, resonant at about100kHz. Since capacitor C3 iscommon to both resonant circuits,there is a continuing interchangeof energy between the two duringretrace.
The high -voltage transfor-mer and capacitor C4 are notshown in Fig. 2 because the im-pedance of this branch is so highthat it does not present a sig-nificant load on the deflectioncircuit during trace time. Duringretrace time, the transformerbecomes a fairly well -match-ed load for the yoke and it ex-
tracts power from the deflec-tion circuit. This power, of course,is ultimately used in high -volt-age circuit.
At the end of retrace, shownin Fig. 4, the yoke current isat maximum and begins to de-crease. The field around theyoke begins to collapse, andthus the yoke itself is the energysource. The yoke end connect-ed to C2 and CR1 becomes nega-tive, and electrons flow in theresonant circuit consisting ofthe yoke, CR1 and Cl resulting incurrent decay which is sinusoidal.
The current in the resonantcircuit consisting of Ll, C3 andCR2 reverses, cutting off CR2.SCR2 has no trigger pulse ap-plied to its gate, so it remainscut off; therefore the retraceswitch is opened by Ll and C3.
When the retrace switch wasclosed, C5 was effectively short-ed but with the switch open itis in a resonant circuit with Lland C3.. This allows currentto flow back into C2 and a posi-tive pulse of voltage appearsat the junction of C5 and Ll.Again the current reverses, andCR2 conducts a second time. Be-cause of resistance in series withC5, as well as the action of T1and T2 (to be discussed), cir-culating current in Ll, C3 andC5 drops to insignificance afterthe time shown in Fig. 4B. There-fore, the retrace circuit is in-active during the remainderof the trace interval.
TRACE INTERVALThe circuit action during the
scanning (or trace) interval isshown in Fig. 5. During thefirst half of this interval, yokecurrent decreases sinusoidallyfrom about 4a to zero. Duringthe second half of this interval,the current reverses and increas-es sinusoidally toward 4a. This
half -sine -wave of current causesthe beam to be deflected fromleft to right across the screenlike reading a typed page.
In order to have current flowthrough SCR1 during the secondhalf of the trace interval, thisdevice must be gated on. A posi-time gate voltage is derivedfrom the secondary of T1 duringmost of the trace interval. Thuswhen the anode of SCR1 becomespositive at mid -trace, the devicecan conduct. The positive gateis removed when retrace is in-itiated, and the positive anodevoltage is removed shortly after.
LINEARITY CIRCUITSThe yoke current just describ-
ed cannot produce a linear sweep,since it is essentially sinusoidal.Two circuits are used to providelinearity. One is not shown inthis article. It consists of a 4.70resistor shunted across one turnof the high -voltage transformer.This combination is connectedbetween SCR1 and CR1 so thatthe instantaneous voltages onthese devices are slightly differ -ent.
The second linearity circuitis shown in Fig. 1. The coil andcapacitor connected betweena winding of the high -voltagetransformer and the junctionof the yoke and Cl are tunedto approximately the secondharmonic of the scan frequency.The circuit is shock excited duringretrace time, and during scantime it adds a second -harmoniccurrent to the yoke to make thetotal current nearly a sawtooth.
POWER INPUT CIRCUITTo understand how energy
from the power supply is sup-plied to the deflection system,it is necessary to consider thefunction of T1 and T2. During

retrace (Fig. 3) these transform-ers are connected between B +and ground. This interval is soshort that the current rises onlyto a small value. During scan time,the right end of C2 is connectedto ground by the trace switch.A series resonant circuit existsbetween ground and B +. Start-ing from ground, the componentsare C2 and C3 in parallel, Ll, andthe parallel combination of T1and T2. This circuit is resonantat about 5100Hz if no currentflows in the control winding ofT2, which is a saturable reactor.
At the start of trace, the volt-age across C2 and C3 begins torise, reaching a maximum in one-fourth of a cycle, or 4903. Sincethe scan interval is about 5203and SRC2 begins conductionabout 303 before the end of thescan interval, the voltage acrossC2 and C3 is maximum at themoment when the retrace switchis closed. This voltage is slight-ly less than twice the supplyvoltage, or about 300v, and itis the energy which is suppliedto the yoke and high -voltagecircuits during retrace.
HIGH VOLTAGE REGULATION
If high voltage suddenly beginsto increase, the voltage acrossCl (Fig. 1) increases. This causesthe regulator transistor, Ql,to conduct more, allowing a great-er current to flow in the con-trol winding of T2. This tendsto saturate the core of T2, lower-ing the primary inductance.But T2 is part of the resonant
circuit through which C2 andC3 receive energy from the powersupply. Reducing the inductanceof T2 raises the resonant fre-quency of the charging circuitso that the voltage on C2 andC3 passes through at maximumand begins to decrease beforeretrace is initiated. This, of course,reduces the amount of energyavailable to the yoke during re-trace, and stabilizes the HV.
SERVICING
From the servicing point ofview, the design of the deflec-
50 ELECTRONIC TECHNICIAN/DEALER
tion system offers several dis-tinct advantages. Possibly themost welcome of these is thatthe loss of drive (horizontal -oscil-lator failure) is not destructiveas it is in vacuum --tube circuitry.No more incinerated 6JE6s andsockets are caused by oscillatorfailure. Also, since the yokeand the high -voltage transform-er are effectively parallel loadson the deflection system, it ispossible to isolate, the high -vol-tage transformer without dis-abling the deflection system.This, of course, makes it a simpletask to determine whether thefault is in the yoke or the trans-former.
While space does not permita description of the symptomsattending the failure of eachcomponent, it is possible to iso-late faults into three generalareas of the circuit quickly andaccurately. Referring to Fig.1, notice C2 isolates the trace
circuit from B +. Therefore, onlyshorted components in the re-trace circuit can overload thepower supply if trigger is removed.By removing the lead to the gateSCR2 and observing whether ornot the circuit breaker trips atswitch -on, shorts may be isolatedto the retrace circuit.
The second step in isolatingfaults is to short directly acrossthe trace switch (SCR1 to ground).When the set is switched onwith SCR1 shorted, the powersupply will not be overloadedunless trouble is present in theretrace circuit, or the triggerpulse to SCR2 is at fault.
The next step in isolating trou-ble is to disconnect the high volt-age transformer at its junctionwith C4. Before turning theinstrument on with the trans-former disconnected, reducethe line voltage to less than 100vto prevent exceeding the PIVor CR1, then turn the instru-
ment on. If the power supplyoverloads under these condi-tions, the fault is in the tracecircuitry; if it does not overload,the problem is the high -voltagesystem. Observation of the wave-form at the anode of SCR2 alsois helpful in isolating faults. Theappearance of the waveformunder various circuit conditionsis shown in Fig. 6.
This system simplifies ratherthan complicates servicing ofthe horizontal system. Becauseof the relatively low operatingpotentials and the absence ofswitching transients, it appearsthat this circuit or variationsof it will become common in thenot -too -distant future. Witha minimum of effort in learn-ing how the circuit works anda logical troubleihooting pro-cedure, as outlined, the aver-age technician should have nodifficulty servicing SCR sweepsystems.

If you lack good service menin your city, don't waste yourtime complaining --do somethingabout it. Get together with oth-er dealers who have the sameproblem and then interest acollege in your area in estab-lishing a training course.
"That's just what we did inDallas," reports Tilman Babb,president of the Wilshire Tele-vision Sales and Service. Babb'spartner, Gilbert Smith, is oneof the five Dallas dealers ser-ving on the Advisory Commit-tee to the Television and Ra-dio Repair Course at the El Cen-tro College.
The course began in Septem-ber and El Centro College's as-sistant dean, Dean Van Trease,says that the "response wasamazing." There are now 26men enrolled, ranging in agefrom 18 to 45 and the college

has invested $105,000 to pro-vide the students with the lat-est and most modern electron-ic equipment.
"The interest in this classhas been so great that we areplanning to offer it in our nightschool this coming fall," VanTrease indicates. He believesthis course to be the only oneof its kind in Texas, and oneof very few in the country.
In addition to Smith, the Advis-ory Committee includes: "DawesSkeen, Ace Television Sales andService; Dee Sponsel, SponselRadio and TV Service; Doc Chil-ders, Childers Radio and TVService; and Richard Kozelski,Kozelski Electronics -- all dealersin Dallas. The purpose of this com-mittee is to help establish cur-riculum and evaluate the pro-gram.

pledged the support of the Tex-as Electronic Assn. and will soonbe brought to the attention ofhigh school students and theirparents in the Dallas Countyarea by the Second Annual Tech-narama which will be held inEl Centro College.
However, before offering apattern - that - your - community -can -follow, Van Trease offers thisadvice: "First, make sure thatthere is a need for such a classin your community. Secondly,make sure that you get a goodadvisory committee of dealerswho have been successful be-cause of their good service. Thereis no doubt that in most com-munities there is a strong needfor such a course. And it willtake educators a long time tosaturate the present needs."
The El Centro College edu-cator reveals that in additionto the night school class alreadybeing considered for the fallcurriculum, serious thoughtis being given to an advancedcourse in electronics to be giv-en to men already in the tele-vision and radio business.
Babb urges dealers in oth-er communities to follow theDallas example. "These cour-ses will make more qualifiedtechnical people available andyou owe it to your community.The electronic industry is chang-ing so fast, that unless you haveaccess to men with training onthe latest and most modern ofequipment, you as a dealer justcannot keep up with it."
Babb outlines a few points
44,744fiur
rr.14/
he feels necessary to a profita-ble and successful service busi-ness:
1. Have properly trained per-sonnel.
2. Maintain excellent custom-er relations.
3. Make adequate charges forthe work performed.
4. Maintain a proper volume.5. Consider the possibility of
selling service contracts.6. Use the service department
as an aid to sales.The technicians at Wilshire
Television receive constant train-ing at monthly store meetingsand by attending courses giv-en by NARDA and by the Tex-as Electronics Assn. Babb in-dicates that technicians shouldbe encouraged to take courseslike the one Dale Carnegie of-fers so that they can meet thepublic well. "The sales abilitythey can gain from such cours-es will not only enable themto sell the service that the cus-tomer's set needs, but also tosell the customers on the limi-tations of the product," Babbstresses.
"This may sound negative,but many customers purchasea radio, TV or stereo and ex-pect too much in the way of per-formance. This is not alwaystheir fault. Many times, fromwhat the salesman or the ad-vertisements have said, theyexpect a perfect picture at alltimes. And when the picture isn'tperfect, they blame the tech-nician. For this reason, the tech-nician should be able to express

himself well so he can providea proper explanation to the cus-tomer and maintain goodwill."
Keeping service records with8000 customer cards in the fileshas also helped tremendouslyin achieving a periodic main-tenance schedule on customersets. As Babb points out, "Thesecase histories enable us to givethe customer a quick and accur-ate report on his set. If we didn'tknow the last time we servic-ed the product, what we didand what we charged for, wecould lose both time and a cus-tomer. It takes work, but it isworth it.
"We do not attempt to do ma-jor repairs in the home. An au-to mechanic will certainly notcome to your home to overhaulthe transmission of your car.The technician making homecalls must be able to determineif a change of tubes will repairthe set, and if not, be able togive the customer a reliableestimate of the work that hasto be done in the shop."
Important, too, in a thrivingservice business is a good em-ployee - employer relationship,Babb admitted. "We pay ourmen a salary and a small com-mission. We have found thisto be best. We also have a pro-fit-sharing plan for our employ-
ees. I don't know for sure if aprofit-sharing plan works, butI am inclined to think so. We havemen who have been with us for6 to 14 years and we believe thatlong tenure breeds loyalty andloyalty pays off where the cus-tomer is concerned." Wilshiretelevision also furnishes uni-forms, white dress shirts, ties,wool trousers and even cover-alls for the antenna men whenthey go under the house or on theroof. "Expensive yes, but wethink it is worth it," Babb re-ports. "We also provide a hos-pitalization plan which givesan employee medical care ina hospital up to 70 days and an$11,000 life insurance policy.Both insurance plans are unu-sual because we bear the en-tire cost, while many such plansexpect the employee to pay partof it," he says.
The technician training pro-gram, in which it is actively in-volved, and maintenance of itsown highly trained staff haspaid dividends for Wilshire Tele-vision. It sells its customersthrough better service and asBabb indicates, "Many of ournew customers come to us asreferrals. If you do a good job,you'll get additional businessand a reputation that can't bebeat."
Tilman Babb checks the repair recordswith one of his servicemen. The filesContain 8000 cards.

Darcy DM330 Digital MultimeterA low-cost digital multimeter combines thefunctions of a milliammeter, an ac -dc volt-
meter and an ohmmeter to increase your serviceefficiency in today's space-age circuitry
I MD141.11.111111111111
We ordered the Darcy DM330digital voltmeter to evaluateit in test lab because more andmore shops are purchasing unitsof this type for their versatil-ity, speed and accuracy -espe-cially for transistorized service.The unit came packed in a heavybox filled with cut cardboardwhich literally suspended it.
The first thing we noticedabout the DM330 was its easeof operation and the sharp read-out display. Packed with theunit is a service/operating man-ual which explains all of the oper-ating ranges and contains com-plete maintenance proceduresand replacement parts list.
The DM 330 is a transistorizeddigital multimeter for measur-ing dc volts, de current, ac voltsand ohms. It operates on eith-er 117 or 220vac. The operatingvoltage must be specified whenthe unit is ordered, but it canbe easily changed later by re-ferring to the manual.
The instrument provides fiveresistance ranges from 1K to

lOmeg, ac and dc volts from lvto 1kv and de current from 1iAato 10ma. All operating controlsare push-button operated andthe readout display automatical-ly indicates the type of measure-ment (vac, vdc, K 0, ma, pa) andthe polarity. Decimal point po-sitioning is also automatic.
The display provides a fullthree -digit readout with a 50percent overrange on all rang-es. This means if you measurea voltage on the 0-100vdc range,it is possible to actually readup to 1500e. If the measuredvoltage goes over 150vde, anoverrange indicator will comeon which tells you to go to thenext higher range --in this case,1000vdc.
Digital test instruments, ofcourse, have several importantfeatures such as speed, accur-acy and high input impedance.We first tested the DM330 ona transistor TV set to note thecircuit loading effects.
The DM330 has three inputterminals on the front panel
which are designed to acceptstandard voltmeter leads. Be-sides the normal black and redterminals found on most meters,the unit has a third "GUARD"terminal which is used whenmeasuring with shielded testleads. The GUARD terminalis normally connected to theblack ground terminal unlessshielded leads are used.
The manual says to start withthe unit on the highest rangeif the measured voltage is un-known, just as with a conven-tional meter.

TEST LAB REPORT
B&K Model 1077 television analyst, showing test pattern produced.
B&K Model 1077 Television AnalystReduce service timeby employing signal
injection to isolatecircuit defects
for more details circle901 on postcard
With more transistorized tele-vision receivers to service, wemust change our service tech-niques. We believe that one ofthe fastest methods is the useof signal injection to isolate adefective stage. The finger onthe volume control method tocheck the output stage of a ra-dio is a simple form of signalinjection. Unfortunately it isonly useful in limited applica-tions.
Actually, having a televis-ion analyst is like having a TVstation of your own. You caninject your own TV signal atany time or point to isolate in-termittent or general TV trou-ble while viewing the test pat-tern on the screen.
As we unpacked the analystfor this report, we comparedit with the Model 1076 whichhas been a part of our test labequipment for some time. Thereis some resemblance in size,but the 1077 has a more mod-ern panel.
One of the panel features firstnoticed was the addition of aUHF output. And many of theearlier 1076 circuits were re-vised for testing transistorized
TV sets with complete safetyby providing the proper imped-ance match for transistorizedcircuitry.
For those who are unfamil-iar with the television analyst,here are a few of the signalsthe unit will generate. (1) Allsignals normally transmittedby a TV station and those pro-duced within a TV receiver forpoint -by -point signal substitu-tion. (2) UHF signals on chan-nels 14 through 83, VHF chan-nels 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12 and 14 fortesting tuners. (3) IF signalsof 20 to 48MHz for testing IFamplifier stages. (4) A positiveor negative composite videosignal for injection into videostages. (5) A keyed color barpattern which modulates theRF output for troubleshootingand adjusting color circuits.(6) A color rainbow signal forinjection into color amplifiersand demodulators. (7) 4.5MHzsound channel test signal thatis frequency modulated by 1kHzaudio tone and a 1kHz tone foraudio circuit testing. (8) Com-posite sync pulse signal of posi-tive or negative polarity, ad-justable in amplitude with var-

iable impedance for troubleshoot-ing sync circuits, picture tubes,blanking circuits and transis-torized keyed AGC circuits.(9) Vertical and horizontal griddrive signal for troubleshoot-ing sweep circuits. (10) Verti-cal plate drive signal for check-ing vertical output transform-ers. (11) Vertical yoke test sig-nal to determine if vertical yokewindings are defective. (12) Hori-zontal plate drive signal for check-ing horizontal output transform-ers. (13) A high level keyingpulse for testing keyed circuits,AGC, burst amplifiers and blank-ing.
There are a number of otheruses for the analyst such as:generating a test pattern forcolor convergence adjustments;checking bandwidth resolution,shading and contrast capabil-ities of the TV receiver; display-ing pictures on the TV screen foradvertising and as a transmit-ter for video paging at conven-tions, hospitals and other gath-erings.
One particular feature wewould like to see added is a hori-zontal and vertical grid drivesignal to drive transistorized
sweep circuits. We feel this wouldbe of great value in servicingthe smaller transistorized sets.
The scanning section is theheart of the analyst. It consistsprimarily of the CRT and thephoto -multiplier tube. Basical-ly, the scanning circuit providesthe following functions: A dotof light scans the CRT. A slidemasks the light which reach-es the photomultiplier tube andthe photomultiplier tube con-verts the light into a video sig-nal that is equivalent to the imageon the slide.
An electron beam scans theface of the CRT just as in a TVreceiver. As the electron beamscans, it produces a flying dotof light. The light is directedtoward a photomultiplier tubewhich produces an output sig-nal proportional to the amountof light which strikes it. A posi-tive transparency slide is insert-ed between the cathode ray tubeand the photomultiplier tube.As the small spot of light sweepsacross the slide from left to right,light passes through the trans-parent portions of the slide andan output voltage is produced bythe photomultiplier tube. When
the spot passes behind the blackparts of the slide, no light reachesthe photomultiplier tube and nooutput voltage is produced.
Shades of gray in the trans-parency will produce some out-put voltage, but less than thefully transparent areas. Thus,as the entire slide is scanned,the photomultiplier tube willproduce video signal voltagesequivalent to the side image.
After the repair is complete,the analyst can be used to testthe over-all performance of theTV receiver. The receiver canbe checked for RF sensitivity,AGC action, centering, size andlinearity, shading, resolution,bandwidth and frequency re-sponse.
The manual supplied withthe instrument is almost a com-plete television repair coursein itself. It takes you step-by-step through the various stag-es of operation and covers pro-cedures, symptom analyses andtroubleshooting techniques. Thetroubleshooting procedure sec-tion with its condensed chartsprovides a quick reference tosymptoms, causes and cures. Netprice is $379.95. IN

Color TV Chassis 611/613/H10/H12-Wrong Colors
If you encounter a complaint of chartreuse (yellowgreen) flesh colors which turn blue when the tint control isrotated, check the ECO transformer. Using the incorrecttransformer will cause the 3.58MHz to be applied to the
color demodulators 180deg out of phase. A keyed rainbowfrom a color bar generator will show the blue and redbars reversed. They will also roll toward or away from eachother when the tint control is rotated, instead of shiftingto one side together.
The correct ECO transformer for the G11, G13 andH12 series chassis is 72B285 -I. The correct transformer forthe H 10 series chassis is 72B285-2. Be sure you use thecorrect replacement-they look alike!
Color TV-Service HintSound But No Picture, Except Briefly When Set Is Turned Off
We have had several reports of this unusual conditionwhich is not actually a fault but it can generate a servicecall. If the brightness control is accidently used to try toturn the set off, the next time the customer turns it on withthe regular on -off switch, he will get sound but no picture.If he then turns the set off, the picture will come on brieflyand fade out. This causes him to think something is wrongwhen all he needs to do is turn the brightness up!
This condition occurs in models with the spot eliminatorcircuit. These models have an extra switch on the ON -OFFswitch which causes the picture tube to conduct at fullbrightness as the set is turned off. This drains off the highvoltage rapidly and prevents a lingering spot on the faceof the picture tube.

Channel Eight Tweet Reduction
The following circuit modification is recommended forthe reduction of channel eight tweet.
(1) Install a 15K, 2w resistor between the junction ofR909 and R903 on the AFC board, and point VA(+270v)on the chroma board. This can be accomplished from theunderneath side of the boards and will require an extensionwire. (2) Remove and discard L905 and its extension lead.L905 is connected on the underneath side of AFC boardbetween the junction of R909 and C913 on the AFC boardand point YC(+140) on the chroma board. (3) Also re-move and discard R909 on the AFC board.
Once this circuit modification has been completed theplate/screen supply for V901 will be the 270v source.

Color TV Chassis V8001-Demodulator Circuit
The demodulator system is a two stage circuit that con-sists of V7A called the R -Y demodulator and V6A calledthe B -Y demodulator, and their associated components.Both demodulators use 5GH8A tubes. Each demodulatorrequires two input signals. The two input signals are:
I. The output signal of V I2A, the bandpass amplifier.2. A 3.58MHz CW signal from V8A, the local oscillator.The output of the bandpass amplifier is passed to the
screen grids (G2) of the two demodulators.Two signals from the 3.58MHz local oscillator, differing
only in phase, are fed into G I, the control grids.The purpose of the demodulator is to convert the phase

and amplitude differences of the two input signals into in-formation that the color difference amplifier circuit canenlarge to magnitudes necessary for driving the CRT grids.
At the transmitter during a color telecast only the intel-ligence contained in the red information signal and theblue information signal has to be transmitted for color re-production. Combining the R -Y and B -Y signals algebrai-cally and electronically in the receiver will result in the re-production of the green color. The R -Y and B -Y signals atthe transmitter are fed into separate modulators and main-tain a 90 degree phase relationship by the introduction ofa signal from an oscillator at the transmitter into the twomodulators that are 90 degrees apart in phase. In circuitryof receivers in the past the same relationship of 90 degreeswas maintained by introducing the 3.58 MHz signal of thereceiver's local oscillator into the R -Y and B -Y demodu-lators 90 degrees apart in phase.

3 -Way Signal Splitter 7 1 1
Provides three twinleadoutputs from single input
A 3 -way signal splitter capable ofmeeting the requirements of an 82channel TV antenna installation is in-troduced. The Model SS83 signal
splitter provides separate twinlead out-puts for UHF, VHF and FM from asingle 82 channel twinlead input. Vir-tually all TV sets require separate in-puts to their UHF and VHF antennaterminals. The splitter not only pro-vides two separate inputs from a singleall -channel antenna downlead, it alsoprovides an extra input to an FM orstereo FM receiver and makes it pos-sible for a single antenna to providesignal voltage to an all -channel TV setas well, without the need for a sepa-rate coupler. Splitting loss on the unitis negligible, reportedly less than 1db.Isolation between outputs is 18db andresponse is flat over the entire TV -FMspectrum ± 0.5db. It is equipped withno -strip terminals for the input andFM output. Twinlead is simply insert-ed under these terminals and thescrews are tightened down for positivemechanical and electrical connection.Appropriate lengths of twinlead withspade lugs are factory attached to theUHF and VHF TV output. The split -ter can easily be attached to the backof any TV set by means of an adhe-sive. List price is $4.95. JFD.
CB Base Antenna 712Shorter radials with 4dbomnidirectional gain
A half -wave, 4db gain, omnidirec-tional base station antenna is an-nounced. The model M-227 is thethird generation of the company'sMagnum series introduced in 1961.Over-all configuration of the antenna
is similar to previous versions but withmodifications in the loading static ar-rester assembly at the top of the five -section aluminum dipole and the ra-dials. The static arrester is a diamond -shaped double loop designed to im-prove static drain -off, reduce noiseand lower the radiation angle. The ra-dials are shorter than on previousmodels to make them more rugged.This is accomplished by four small
loading coils which electrically length-en the radials to a full 1/4 wavelengththus producing a low radiation angleand a claimed 4db of omnidirectionalgain. Other construction features in-clude a waterproof coax connectorjacket, chemically welded dual phas-ing coil jacket, and double -interlockdipole joints. The VSWR is rated at1.05 to 1 at centerband and 1.4 to 1
at the band edges. List price is $36.95.Antenna Specialists.
Solid -State VOM 713Battery -operated VOM featuresfield -effect -transistorized circuitry
Introduced is a battery -operatedvolt-ohm-milliammeter featuring afield-effect circuit with a IOM constantinput resistance on all dc voltageranges and sensitivity approximatelyten times greater than the convention-al bench -type VTVM. The unit, whichslips easily into a shirt pocket, is 23/4x 41/4 x 11/3 in. and weighs 14oz. It hasa thumb switch on the side for revers-ing polarity, a single test/range selec-tor switch on the front panel and pro-vision for attaching an ac clamp -onammeter adapter. Adding to its ease -
of -use in the field, the VOM has a bat-tery -test provision as one of the selec-tor -switch positions. The VOM report-edly performs with an accuracy of 3
percent on all dc ranges, 4 percent onall ac ranges and 3 percent on ohms.Available ranges in dc volts are: .3,1.2, 6, 30, 120 and 600v with an inputresistance of IOM constant on allranges. In the ac position, the unitcovers 3, 12, 60, 300 and 600v (forgreater accuracy, a separate scale isprovided for 0-3v), with input resist-ance of 500012 per volt. DB measure-ments are .1 to 600v and dc currentmeasurements in two ranges, 0-120 pa,and 0-1/2 iza at 300mv. Four resistancemeasurement ranges are available (allread on the 5012 center scale): X 1,X100, X 10K, and times 1M so thatresistances from 10 to 5000M can beconveniently measured. The VOMutilizes two batteries, a 7v type NEDA1501 to power the FET bridge circuit,and a 11/2v ASA type N for the ohmscircuit. Net price complete with probesand insulated leads is $70. Triplett.

Measurements on the otherranges for ac, ohms and ampsalso proved to be fast and ac-curate.
Since digital test instrumentsare just now really getting in-to the pricing category of thesmall shop, we were concern-ed with the warranty and re-pair situation. The manual thatcame with the DM330 we re-ceived was not up to date, ac-cording to the people represent-ing Darcy, when we contact-ed them about it. They indica-ted that a new warranty wasbeing printed which better ex-plains their program. In essenceit says that Darcy provides re-gional repair centers. The DM330is warranted for one year andcan be sent to the closest repaircenter. However, the manualis purposely complete enoughto allow the technician to repairthe DM330 in his own shop ifhe wiF'Ies. But like a fine watch,once toe owner opens the unitfor repair, the warranty is void-ed. If the technician wants torepair it, he can order parts fromthe factory but again, the partswill not be covered under war-ranty unless the unit is repair-ed by an authorized repair cen-ter. Darcy has repair centersin the East and Midwest regions.The factory handles the West-ern region.
As we mentioned earlier, digi-tal test instruments are gettingcloser to the price a technicianand service shop can afford.The service business today ismore demanding and time ismore valuable so test instru-ments become a most impor-tant asset. Because of this, wewill continue in future Testlabreports to bring you the latestdesigns in test instruments.

Sylvania Plans Introduction ofThree Color CRTs in 1970
The Electronic Tube Div. of Sylvania Electric Products,Inc. has revealed plans for the introduction of three newcolor television tube types in 1970, including the indus-try's largest tube and the first 110deg. color tube. Syl-vania is a subsidiary of General Telephone & ElectronicsCorp.
George Konkol, vice president -operations, said the newtubes will consist of a new large screen, 25in. viewable90deg. square corner; a 21 in. viewable 90deg. square cor-ner tube, and an 18in. viewable 110deg. tube.
Preliminary drawings for these tubes will be distributedto manufacturers of color television sets this month. Pro-duction schedules for the new tubes are predicated entirelyon the availability of the new glass sizes and shapes re-quired, Konkol said. However, plans call for the 25 and21in. tubes to be sampled in January 1970.
Konkol said the square corner feature of the 25 and 21in. tubes will provide a flatter and more pleasing appear-ance than current tubes.
Admiral ReportsProfit in 1968
Admiral Corp. reported 1968 earnings after taxes of$494,430 or 10 cents a share, compared with a loss of$3,770,061 or 74 cents per share in 1967. Profits before
taxes were $894,430 in 1968, while in the preceding yearthere was a loss of $7,707,061. The electronics -appliancemanufacturer said consolidated sales were $377,013,813 in1968, which compares with $380,941,526 in 1967.
Fourth quarter sales were $96,071,068, contrasted with$108,230,891 in 1967. The drop in volume was attributedto a later -than -usual introduction of appliances-Decemberagainst August-which prevented sizable shipments in thefourth quarter, lower sales by the government electronicsdivision, and changeover to the new 4-4-5 weeks per quar-ter accounting periods ending on the Sunday nearest Dec.31.
Profits before taxes in the quarter were $1,891,707against a profit of $1,505,315 in 1967. Net profits were$781,306 or 16 cents per share, compared with $622,266or 12 cents per share.
EIA Reports FM Radio Growth UpConstituting 37.1 Percent of Radios
The FM share of the radio market continued to grow in1968, registering increases and new highs in all categories,according to the Electronic Industries Assn. ConsumerProducts Div. and based on EIA Marketing Services Dept.statistics.
FM radios constituted 37.1 percent of domestic -labelradios (table, clock, portable) in 1968, compared to 33.5percent in 1967. In numbers, FM radios grew from 4.21million table, clock and portable units in 1967 to 4,322,000units in a total domestic -label radio market that decreasedfrom 12.6 million units in the previous year to 11.7 millionin 1968. These statistics are increased to 47 percent and42.3 percent, respectively, for 1968 compared to 1967when TV and phonograph combinations are included.

NEA'S Certified Electronic TechnicianProgram Now International
In March and April of this year NEA's certificationcommittee issued certificates to electronic technicians inseveral countries outside the United States, includingGuam, Canada, South Vietnam, Argentina and Germany.Other technicians are attempting to qualify in Brazil, Spain,Puerto Rico and Mexico.
To become registered by NEA as a CET, a technicianmust successfully complete a 126 -question technical testoffered by NEA's CET committee. He must have com-pleted four years of schooling and experience in consumerelectronics service. Successful passage of the test entitleshim to a framed wall certificate, a wallet identification cardand the use of CET following his name.
Presently, the Raytheon Co. Tube Div. is presentingCETs with lapel pins. Also, in the coming months the CETcommittee is offering CET patches for use on blazers whichmany of the professional technicians now wear.
Dick Glass, CET, president of NEA, stated that "TheCET Program has reached the point where it is now rec-ognized by the entire industry. It has registered close to800 CETs."
Technicians may take the CET test in various locations.In California, New York and Pennsylvania the majority oftests are given in two-hour sessions at association meetings.Military service personnel have their tests monitored bybase education officers. Several vocational schools andsome radio stations have been used as test monitors. InNebraska, five area vocational colleges hold test sessionsregularly each month in various places in the state.
International Correspondence Schools, Scranton, Pa.,has been grading the CET test papers. Due to increased vol-ume, however, the CET Committee has designed new testsfor computer grading to speed up the program.
Sony Produces Braille ManualsFor Tape Recorders
Superscope Inc., exclusive U.S. distributor of Sony taperecorders and related equipment, has started producingbraille instruction manuals for three tape recorders. Themanuals will be available free upon request.
"With the increasing use of tape recorders by the blindas one of their primary sources of education, entertainmentand relaxation, we believe that these people should havethe dignity of self-sufficiency in being able to operate andcare for their recorders without help," the firm said.
The 10- by 12in. instruction manuals will be for theSony models 100, 104 and 105 tape recorders that aremost frequently used by the blind because of their sim-plicity of operation. They will be produced by Boston -based National Braille Press, Inc.
The entire braille alphabet can be printed from a com-bination of six dots. A special stereotype machine punchesthe dots onto a thin 9- by 28in. zinc printing plate. Afterthe plates are proofed (by a blind person), they are runon an inkless cylinder press which prints four pages to asheet at the rate of 3000 copies an hour.
"To the best of our knowledge, no other tape recordercompany provides this service," the company noted.

DIRT AND CORROSIONTUN -O -FOAM is a new generation of
tuner sprays. It is not simply a cleanerwith a little residue of lubricant. It is a
space age lubricant that cleans as it lubricates.Ordinal lubricants are hydrocarbon compounds
which dry out rapidly. TUN -0 -FOAM is a spaceage lubricant in which the carbon has been
replaced by a rugged, synthetic element. The resultis a long lasting lubricant capable of withstanding
extremes of temperature and maintaining lubricity overthousands of channel changes. Thus, no matter how
hot the chassis runs, TUN -O -FOAM will not cake upor dry out. Especially well suited to silver and gold
plated contacts, it is the same type of lubricant used intoday's spacecraft - the finest ingredients ever put into a can.
Each time the tuner is rotated, the contacts are cleaned,polished and Itbricated. Yet TUN -0 -FOAM is non-abrasive.

MAKEYOUROWN
TUNER TEST!If you're like most professional TV tech-
nicians, you clean the tuner of every chassis youservice.
But how careful are you in choosing your tunerspray? The wrong spray can cost you a lot Inaggravation and callbacks.
That's why we ask you to
MAKE THIS TEST YOURSELF1. Tune in a good color picture on any color set.2. Spray the tuner with anything but a Chem-
tronics Spray.You will see the color fade and disappear al-most immediately, due to the changes ofcapacitance in tuned circuits caused by thespray.
COLOR

NORMAL RESPONSE
AC--- COLORCARRIER
RESPONSE DETUNEDBY SPRAY
4. Walt about 10 minutes for the spray to dry.Unfortunately, the color will not come back.
5. Spray the tuner with Chemtronics TUN -0 -WASH.6. Wait about two minutes and color will be re-
stored.
WHAT THIS TEST MEANS TO YOUMost tuner sprays leave a residue of slow dry-
ing petroleum base lubricant. This saturates thecoils and other components causing a shift Inresponse as shown in illustration.
To compensate for this shift, you often adjustoscillator slugs. Then, when the set has playedin your customer's house for a week or two, theresidue dries out, shifting the oscillator backtoward its original frequency. If the customercan't compensate for this drift with the finetuner, you have a callback on your hands. Evenif the drift is not too severe, the remaining resi.due picks up dirt and eventually "gunks up"the tuner.
TUN -O -WASH IS LIKE NO OTHERSPRAY ON THE MARKET
TUN -O -WASH is a powerful, high pressure spraydesigned to do just one job superlatively well.It melts away grease, oil, dirt and corrosionquickly and completely. It leaves absolutely noresidue behind. Tests show that TUN -0 -WASH isat least 10 times as effective as any other tunerspray in degreasing gunked up tuners.
Use TUN -0 -WASH as your first step in repair-ing any tuner. It gives you a clean start in muchthe same way as the ultrasonic bath used bytuner specialists - but without harmful vibra-tion. You'll be surprised at howmany tuners you can repair theTUN -0 -WASH way.
