Fairchild Channel F repair video

[channelmaniac]

Hey everyone,

 

Rob Ivy stopped by with a pesky, dismantled Channel F that had some issues and oh boy, did it have some issues.

 

It took a while to figure out the power problem and it was a first for me after all my years of repairing things: an intermittent bridge rectifier. The power would go on and off on its own. After that it was 3 of the 5 plunger switches not staying up enough to keep them from activating themselves then it was 3 missing coils. It was an adventure and Rob videoed the whole thing, edited it, put an intro graphic and my logo on it, and gave it to me for posting on my channel.

 

 

Hope you like it.
