10:12:00 <eddie> DSL Uptime 69 days 19 hours 33 minutes 26 seconds
10:57:00 <^Roshanda^> away [r: afk]
13:34:00 <Dracula> Ello
13:34:00 <Dracula> Hows everyones arvo goin
13:35:00 <Dracula> Im still laying in bed
13:38:00 <Devil45> its dead today
13:38:00 <Dracula> It is?
13:39:00 <Devil45> ive been here an hour and no one said a word
13:39:00 <Dracula> how r u
13:39:00 <Devil45> still breathing
13:40:00 <Dracula> Lol
13:40:00 <Dracula> That good aye
13:41:00 <Dracula> I got given a crt lastnight but found out it was trash when ingot home
13:41:00 <Devil45> tested dead?
13:41:00 <Dracula> It has a intermitten flicker
13:41:00 <Devil45> you mean the filmament is intermittent in the neck?
13:41:00 <Devil45> or the screen flickers?
13:42:00 <Dracula> Screen will kinda flicker n shake for abit then it will be fine then it comes back few mins later
13:42:00 <Devil45> you sure its the tube?
13:42:00 <Dracula> ?
13:42:00 <Dracula> Wot else it gonne be
13:43:00 <Devil45> usually flickers start from the horizontal oscillator and work through the video output
13:43:00 <Devil45> or
13:43:00 <Devil45> it could be a bad yoke
13:44:00 <Devil45> did you test the tube with a good chassis/yoke?
13:46:00 <Dracula> Nah
13:46:00 <Dracula> Dont wanna start pulling my goof trinitron apart for this one
13:47:00 <Devil45> so its an arcade tube?
13:47:00 <Devil45> not a regular tv tube?
13:48:00 <Devil45> ive never had a picture tube flicker/pulsate when connected to a working chassis
13:49:00 <Dracula> No
13:49:00 <Dracula> Its a consumer telly
13:49:00 <Dracula> Another sony trinitron
13:49:00 <Devil45> pity you dont have a similar chassis to hook the tube to
13:49:00 <Dracula> Not a cga tube
13:49:00 <Devil45> as a temp test
13:50:00 <Devil45> because if you were given a complete set with the tube and the pic flickers - its most likely a chassis problem
13:51:00 <Devil45> either B+ horizontal drive phase detector circuit/sync/agc or deflection issues on the board (possibly bad caps)
13:51:00 <Dracula> But it goes away
13:51:00 <Devil45> if the colour is good
13:51:00 <Dracula> Thats the strange thing
13:51:00 <Devil45> all 3 guns are equal
13:52:00 <Devil45> you could simply keep it as a spare tube for your trinitron (if the original should fail)
13:52:00 <Dracula> No space
13:52:00 <Dracula> :(
13:52:00 <Devil45> and someone just said 'heres a sony tube for you'
13:52:00 <Devil45> how big? 28"?
13:53:00 <Dracula> Yeh
13:53:00 <Devil45> thats an 1100 dollar tube
13:53:00 <Dracula> Oh it was at a games night i went to lastnight
13:53:00 <Devil45> to buy one new would cost over 1000
13:53:00 <Dracula> Never met them before
13:53:00 <Devil45> and also heavy
13:53:00 <Devil45> because of the frame inside the glass
13:54:00 <Devil45> if the purity is out e.g. in a corner then the tube is cactus
13:54:00 <Devil45> because the internal shadow mask would be distorted
13:55:00 <Dracula> Nice colour
13:56:00 <Dracula> The guy had 4 of them 34" sony wega crts
13:56:00 <Devil45> its a wega?
13:56:00 <Dracula> The one i got given?
13:56:00 <Devil45> yup
13:56:00 <Dracula> Nah man asif lol
13:56:00 <Devil45> colour is ok except for unstable pic
13:57:00 <Devil45> definitely chassis-related
13:57:00 <Devil45> a voltage problem somewhere
13:57:00 <Dracula> Im not one to fix chassis so in the dumpster it gos
13:57:00 <Devil45> sell it on ebay
13:58:00 <Devil45> get some dollars for it - as is
13:58:00 <Devil45> pickup only
14:01:00 <Dracula> Oh kool
14:03:00 <Devil45> talk about ancient! 1975 model
14:04:00 <Dracula> Love that wood grain
14:04:00 <Devil45> was complete but i believe the tubes in those cracked under the yoke
14:04:00 <Devil45> yokes weighed almost 1 kg
14:05:00 <Devil45> so i wasnt prepared to take the risk. so instead i cut the front panel out and took it :)
14:06:00 <Dracula> Woww hah
14:06:00 <Devil45> - well i cut the wires - the panel has the convergence board, rotary tuner, speaker, sliding controls, the word-plate 'philips' and mains filter board (with 4A fuses)
14:08:00 <Devil45> cabinet wasnt in great shape
14:08:00 <Dracula> U are awesome info lol
14:08:00 <Devil45> it had water damage at the bottom (must have been in a shed for years)
14:09:00 <Devil45> and made out of particle board - nah - cant be saved even the chassis worked
14:09:00 <Devil45> even if*
14:13:00 <Dracula> Yeh but your knowledge is helpful
14:14:00 <Devil45> if only that principle could apply to the set you got last night
14:15:00 <Devil45> problem is sony sets are expensive to repair
14:15:00 <Dracula> :(
14:15:00 <Devil45> i doubt its the tube though
14:16:00 <Dracula> Too bad u dont live down the rd lol
14:16:00 <Devil45> thats the most expensive part
14:16:00 <Devil45> it has to be a horizontal/B+/supply issue
14:16:00 <Devil45> i believe those sets use more than 1 tuning cap in the horizontal stage
14:18:00 <Devil45> if i did live close by id be there in a flash - take a look tell you to your face what i said here - afterwards you decide what to do - sell it on ebay or junk it
14:18:00 <Dracula> I wouldnt sell it as it was given to me
14:18:00 <Dracula> Common decency
14:18:00 <Devil45> and you cant store it due to space
14:19:00 <Devil45> perhaps donate to salvos if you cant get it looked at/fixed?
14:19:00 <Devil45> its a tough decision
14:24:00 <Dracula> But its trash
14:24:00 <Dracula> Like if someone bought that at salvos for $50
14:24:00 <Dracula> Then goes home to realise its fucked
14:24:00 <Dracula> Id be upset
14:25:00 <Devil45> i recently got rid of a quintrix which had a cutting out problem and black flickering lines in pic
14:26:00 <Devil45> and being panasonic it wasnt worth getting repaired as its a 2000 model (i got it new in 2001)
14:27:00 <Devil45> the set weighs over 40kg
14:30:00 <Dracula> Wowww fuck
14:33:00 <Devil45> it went bad in 2012
14:34:00 <Dracula> 12 years
14:34:00 <Dracula> I suppose thats ok
14:38:00 <Devil45> its now landfill
