Somehow those early top-load LD players keep accumulating while I'm not looking. Last I checked I've got several Magnavisions (as made popular by Leonard Nemoy), Pioneer's VP1000, and the GM dealer DiscoVision PR-7820 along with the woodgrain display. For serious LD watching, I have a "modern"...

I'm not sure when frequency ringers came into their own. I know it was an option on the early 500 sets, but to hear family talk about their party lines in the 50's/60's, it was still ring-pattern based. When my grandparents built their retirement home in rural MN and moved in around '80, they...

Regarding interference, it's enough to cause a problem with my AM radio reception. Surprisingly, there was no FCC requirement prior to 2016 to even take radiated emission measurements on these things from the 30-1000MHz range, which most other electronic equipment must meet. CFLs were also...

Rather than hijack the other thread, I figured I'd start a new one regarding LED bulb failures. Figured you guys might like to see pics. This is my biggest gripe about LED lighting...in order to keep the cost down, pennies are pinched on the power supplies. Not enough suppression for radio...

LEDs have their place, but then so do incandescents. I finally found some LEDs that work well at low temps and that I can't distinguish from their old incandescent counterparts. They're doing fine in my outdoor fixtures. On the other hand, I haven't found a good 40w incandescent replacement...

That is a gorgeous 9TA, nice job cleaning her up! I know the RR-4 has 'the look', but that Touchmatic will run circles around it. Score!

Man, lots of misinformation here that seems to get passed down like gospel. The Cad V864 was actually a great engine...just a 368 with valve deactivation solenoids. Torque peak at 1400 RPM. Dead reliable EFI. The ECU was up to the task, but customers complained about vibration, especially...

RR-7 That's a gorgeous example of Amana's original RR-7. This was the 'update' to the classic RR-4D and the last to feature the independent timer pair. Unfortunately, it was also Amana's first foray into going all solid-state and many of these were retrofitted to become 7A's with similar...

Yes, if you're going to the trouble of replacing the trans oil, then by all means use Redline brand MT-90. You'll experience a night and day difference compared to the std oil, especially in a chilly basement. You also don't need to pull the trans, just the top half while the tub assembly is...

Thanks guys, I appreciate the info. This fridge has always run cold, even on the warmest setting (for all the years I've run it), but being un-airconditioned, and the recent heat wave we've had, it could just be the evap isn't getting quite cold enough to cut out. I've added a little more mass...

Hey guys, This is a continuation of my earlier post regarding my '65 GE (non-frost free) that was running continuously and freezing everything in the fridge compartment. I'm now playing musical chairs with various cold controls that are cross-referenced to work...yet don't seem to. What I'm...
