My Homemade "Eye" Tube Tester

I built this in 2002 to test those EYE tubes, those green glow tuning indicator tubes you find in some antique radios. You can't just plug an eye tube in a tube tester and if the tester shows "good" that does NOT mean that it IS good. The tube tester can't apply the plate/target with the 150-165 volts needed to light up the target phosper green. Check out my video and I will explain why and show you how to make your own "Eye" tester.

1936 Philco Cathedral Radio - Music - On Account of Your Kisses - Johnny Hamp

I ran across this 1936 Philco in really rough condition at the flea market, and decided at first not to get it at any price, then changed my mind. The cabinet is falling apart, and the guy said if he didn't sell it today for a few dollars it was going in the trash when he got home. I made a mistake in the video I meant to say the damaged to the top does go all the way through it has a large hole in it. I thought the tubes and the speaker were worth 3.00, and as an antique should be salvaged from the dump. If the radio can be restored to play the cabinet might be worth trying to salvage. It might be possible to glue and reinforce it inside with braces, and apply a new sheet of veneer to the outside. The front was a photo finish, common on some 1930's radios, and is ruined. It needs replaced, and if not a new painted on photo finsih similar to the original, possibly some veneer could be applied to the front as well. It is in very rough condition, but it still is an antique and I thought it should be salvaged, and not thrown in the dump, anyway Sadie liked it and she got 3.00 worth of entertainment out of it.

Motorola All American 5 Tube Radio

I got this radio from my mother who picked it up at a garage sale for $1.00. It has some minor damage but the radio works good. Will need a full re-cap soon. I also have another one fron the 40s that I got from the thrift store but I need to restore it first before testing it.
