    Need help with vintage Diehl fan

    Hey All, Okay, I have a Diehl six bladed fan, it looks like the one in this picture, but it's the "plain jane" version. It's basic black. The fan is fully functional but, it has two problems, first the bearings need replacing, and the pot metal motor casing, is cracking, and actually has a...

    MCM Delmonico Hi-Fi Stereo by JVC

    rp, Depending on what you are willing to do, there MIGHT be a way to upgrade the speakers. You will need to find certain Zenith radios from the late 40's to mid 50's. This radio here-...

    Do not play good records on that Crosely, it will ruin them. Once rebuilt, this JVC will grossly outperform it, and will be easier on records. you can get a needle/cart and parts for the turntable at thevoiceofmusic.com talk to Gary

    No, don't change the speakers. The current speakers are matched for power rating and efficiency, especially at the 1.5 watt power output of this amplifier. You must recap the amp to restore full performance and for safety, especially the one going across the a/c line. Do not be afraid of the...

    Speaking of Old Window A/Cs

    Gentlemen, I could use some input. I have a Friedrich Window Unit, KStar, circa 2004, about 7500 BTU. It has manual controls and it's one the last units built by Friedrich. I absolutely love this a/c. It also uses R22 and has a different "air feel" than the main high efficiency central A/C...

    Changes coming to my boob tube this summer

    @washman, Just as an FYI, you're not going to see whole lot of energy savings. These newer sets have a higher standby power rating. Hows this for irony? I had a Magnavox 25 inch color TUBE set from 1972. You look in the back and see tubes glowing. I got tired of yearly maintenance on it and...

    What do people think of the new Persil available in USA?

    Currently experimenting with Persil Pro Clean and Gain Fabric softener. So far I really like it, the Persil cleans real well, and does not oversud. However, I will my machine is not HE, and runs hot water directly from the tap, though I usually wash in warm. Don't know if that makes a...

    Looking for an unusual lamp socket

    Bad news TQ, I did make it back the antique store, with an ohm meter in hand. It didn't dawn on me until today that perhaps actually checking the socket electrically was probably prudent. Unfortunately it's suffering from same fate yours is. It's toast. It's stuck permanently on. Sorry, I...

    Looking for an unusual lamp socket

    Hi, I FINALLY made it back over that antique store. The socket is an older version, ceramic base. It is missing the bottom half, however, the top half screws off. I believe the size might be the same. I couldn't take a picture because my phone was dead. I can try and make it back over there...
