Helloooo!
UPDATE: YouTube link replaced with new version where a lowpass filter was added to remove the CRT whine from 7:06 to 9:04. I'd appreciate your feedback to see if it's effective - I cannot hear anything in the recording which either means the day has finally come for me or... I think since the TV was generating its own raster without a signal it was a slightly higher frequency that just managed to escaped what I can hear. I turned on one of my little Sony CRTs and I can still hear the whine in person. Am I writing all of this in the vain attempt to deny the fact that I'm aging? Surely not.
Anyway, so for the second main channel video where I promote the socks, I decided to make a video on the CRT projector I picked up a while ago. And I dusted off some of the old tricks I used to use for putting my face on another screen.
Here's the YT version:https://youtu.be/ms8uu0zeU88
The TV that I was restoring also made an appearance - a couple of the mica capacitors in the horizontal oscillator circuit ended up being leaky and after replacing those it came to life. I figured it would be fun to show an actual all-tube TV design when talking about the early history.
Okeydoke, well I'm gonna try to get the captions finished up tonight for everybody. But I hope you enjoy it!
