nooooo too slow! i can't believe someone got this calculator for only $20-odd dollars. these never show up on ebay. this is first time my alert triggered since i started watching for one YEARS ago.
to be fair it was like 3AM when it got sold so i didn't have a chance haha

La Bowmar 901B n’était pas “smart”, mais elle était révolutionnaire : LED rouges, touches Klixon, et un cœur Texas Instruments.
Un ancêtre lourd, cher… et absolument mythique.A lire : https://www.silicium.org/index.php/blog-catalogue/calcs/bowmar-901b-brain

Who's got any tips on why the colour saturation on this little 7-inch TFT monitor is so poor? It was originally built for use in the broadcasting industry, I think, with its BNC and S-Video connectors. It could be twenty years old or more.
It's a RON-6070. I've opened it up to see if there are any obviously failing electrolytic caps, but they all look good to me.
What do you think? What else should I check?
(The image is otherwise clean and stable. I've been using the S-Video input with an Atari 140XE which has correctly saturated output over the same interface and connector on a different monitor.)

Check out this video: recapping a 1991 Sony SW1 shortwave receiver 📻🔧
A bit of careful soldering, fresh capacitors, and another classic saved from the bin.#Repair #RightToRepair #Shortwave #VintageElectronics #TogHackerspace

Was digging under my desk tonight and found this old Supreme 333 Analyzer. Eventually it will be cleaned up and have a beautiful dark panel and the wood treated and waxed. After that it will be tested and parts replaced if necessary. I have no use for it so will be dragged to a local ham radio flea market next fall. I will post an image after it is detailed. It will be pretty. -
Thinking about picking up a vintage iomega Jaz drive to transfer some old stuff i still have. #storage #VintageElectronics #JazDrive

How rad is this. This ahead-of-its time r/c transmitter was released in 1990. Not only does it still work, it’s still being supported 35 years later. I just installed a new processor to allow it to run an aftermarket fw with more memory! #RadioControl #VintageRCSociety #VintageElectronics

This was a doorbell camera thingy at one point in time. Now it's "Ding Pong", as Simon Augustin gutted it, inserted one of the Sony portable b/w CRT TV (watchman I believe) and hardwired the most common Pong chip from back in the day into this thing (General Instrument AY-3-8500 if I'm not mistaken). It's a two player device, but you can play alone as well. It's quite special and I like it a lot, and it's pretty unique. The stuff that this guy comes up with ... crazy. He's also one of the few guys who knows the Interton VC4000 inside and out, even working on another new game for it. Anyway, thought you might like the Ding Pong. Cheers!

This untested Telefunken XM1000 vintage tube got a good price. Nice tube though.

I just uploaded the scanned and ocr'd (service) manuals in English and German for the 50+ years old Philips PM 2423 Digital Multimeter. They are very detailed and perfect for anyone who wants to repair and calibrate a unit:

🎉🌟 Behold, the holy grail of ancient boob tubes: the Sony Trinitron KV-3000R! This vintage masterpiece is so "luxurious" it makes YouTube's privacy policy seem like a wild ride. 🛋️📺

I looked up the display controller used by the SC-55’s display, and I suspected it follows the extremely common pinout and protocol used by most text LCDs of the era. I realized I have a display that will work, although the layout of the LCD elements is naturally totally wrong. So I wired it up, and it displays perfectly, confirming that the problem is indeed the SC-55’s display.
Unfortunately those are getting rarer and rarer to come by. There’s a small chance I can repair the existing display *if* I can identify the problem, find replacement ICs, and manage the very fiddly fine SMT desoldering/soldering that would be needed… but I may be better off just keeping an eye on eBay. #electronics #roland #soundcanvas #vintageelectronics #synth

Made progress on getting the broken Roland SoundCanvas SC-55mkII that I got for cheap on eBay to work! I was fairly sure a clock signal (or rather the absence of one) was the culprit, and after poking around the board tracing clock signals I found a spot where one abruptly stopped.
Turns out a 40MHz low-pass filter was missing entirely from the board! After bodging it with a wire (since it’s just a filter, so the worst that happens is noise causes occasional problems), the unit came up! 🎉 But the display has issues. Half of it is dead, and the first letter of the instrument name is garbled. This appears unrelated to the first problem, and suggests an issue with the display board itself; all lines going to the display look good.
Given that another filter on the board was already bodge-wired, and a 455MHz crystal (only needed for the remote) was cut out, *and* given this display problem, I think this may have been a parts unit for someone.

If you are getting started with servicing #VintageComputing gear or #VintageElectronics, you may be like me and scratching your head wondering about negative and positive sides/legs of capacitors.
I found the Identifying Capacitor Polarization page on DigiKey.com to be helpful.

180 Watt standby power consumption.
I love how they explain that there are transistors on the inside. Possibly to argue with the "more tubes, more better" crowd?

Ok #vintageElectronics nerds! tell me about these things…
The “MR” designation denotes some kind of diode (it stands for Metal Rectifier, a notation hangover from before silicon/germanium diodes) and they’re obviously arranged as full bridge rectifiers
They’re in a PSU made for the British Post Office in 1972
The brown stripe seems to denote the + end, but what does the other stripe mean?
