My Dad used to do T.V. repair work as a side line business. This really brought back a lot of memories. I recently sold my 1951 Hoffman cabinet model which hopefully will be restored. Great video and thank you for posting.
Wow that’s neat I love these kind of museums about technology and stuff. Definitely have to drop in next time I go on vacation Not trying to plug Hollywood or anyting but on Highland Avenue straight across from the Hollywood Bowl is a movie Industry Museum just a small yellow building on an old Cecil B Demille property
Fascinating little museum, very interesting to see how TV developed. Still have a couple CRT’s, still work just fine even though I had to get a converter box when broadcasting went over to digitial.
Worked for Sylvania tv ottawa ohio. Saw many different tubes. Bw, color, Radar, tubes. the first attempts of touch screen. we even had a "pong" game there that used touch . It was slow. Test set. Thanks
Very interesting stuff. Thank you for sharing. My dad was a radar technician back in the 50s and 60s, and from there he learned how to fix TVs. So we had all kinds of tubes and equipment at the house. I never understood it the way he did, but I find it very interesting.
As a youth I worked in an antique store and learned how to repair tube radios, then on to TV sets. Stuff like Dumont, Atwater Kent. I also built an Heath Kit TV. Today a TV is as simple to repair as swap out a PC board. My best repair was a Samsung TV 60". I baked the main board for 10 min at 350 degrees F. The set has been working fine for 4 years now.
Wow … thank you … certainly a fun place … really enjoyed that. Makes me want to get away from engineering demands, and finish an old ’48 Admiral TV (now works, but want to preserve the look inside too – hide caps in the cardboard tubes, make it work better than it is). Thanks again …
Absolutely fantastic tour through the years of television. I’m impressed that so much equipment actually survives and is still operational. It is amazing how far we have come satellite and flat screens just amazing.
Didn’t give WLW TV and Ruth Lyons in Cincinnati credit for Cincinnati being ‘color town USA! More color sets in Cincinnati because of Ruth Lyons Show in all of the USA! Ruth Lyons WLWT-TV CINCINNATI 1957.
Speaking of video, I have a 7-inch reel of unused 1/2-inch Memorex video tape looking for a good home. Can anybody here recommend a museum which would value this rarity? Please message me with the address where I can post it to.
I entered the broadcast engineering field in the 1960s. Worked in radio engineering then transferred to television engineering. Boy, that RCA TK42 Camera took two âhealthy, strongâ engineers to put it back on
the pedestal after repairs. Only senior âqualifiedâ engineers were allowed to replace and set up the camera
tubes. Good presentation. Hope many more will enjoy watching. Great to grow up and learn during those
days. Thank you. Steve Molnar, W8ANJ.
Thank you for sharing!!! I didn’t even know this place existed. It is hard to believe how far we’ve advanced in such a short time as I watch this on my cell phone!
If you’re interested in old TV’s you might want to check out the slideshow I posted of the handbook from the first TV my Mother rented in 1965: https://youtu.be/zJ3tDvjcQqM
Thank God for the digital age. Also, California is correct. Amateur Radio operators serve no useful purpose. We don’t need WW2 era radiomen puffing away on cigarettes.
Great displays of early mechanical through early color televisions.
Great collection and excellent commentary. Well done!
This is place is on my bucket list!
8:50 there is a mistake, should be 1946 đ
Good video. Thanks for sharing

Very interesting love it
What an outstanding collection. I would love to visit, but it’s a long way from England.

11:46 That was the Same TV used in Toy Story 2 (1999)
Excellent tour! Thank you.
Complimenti per tutto quello che ha, mi ha fatto molto piacere vedere il video, io ho solo una TV a valvole e la custodisco bene.

Thansk for the tour! Iâll place this museum on my bucket list! đ
Great collection. Appreciated

At 20:18 I see an old TV camera from my neck of the woods – Central NY (State) – WHEN TV5/WTVH 5 Syracuse NY! Wow!
ALASKA ANALOG TV STATIONS WILL HAVE IT UNTIL JANUARY 10, 2022 WHEN THE LAST ANALOG TV STATIONS IN UNITED STATES WILL BE NO MORE.

I did not see or hear anything about " MUNTZ TV " which is certainly a part of TV History.

This museum is 10 minutes away from me. I will be going
Thank you for the tour, greetings from germany!
Man it would suck if a earthquake mess up all those og tubes…..

Looks amazing!
Excellent! Thanks for sharing this!! I can still remember my Grandpa getting our first color TV set!
We need a video on Early Television Program museums!
As a television engineer since 83, this video is fascinating!

Thanks for taking the time to share this, fantastic.
Oh wow, I love this type of stuff đ
That is really neat!
Ahhh yes. Samâs photo facts. Donât leave home without one.
Very nice and interesting presentation. Thank you
Now I understand why they call it signalhill. It’s so they can receive microwave signals from remote locations.
Many thanks for very interesting video. What a museum đđđ
I really hope young people will see this.
â Thereâs something about a Muntz TV. In oh so many ways!â
Those displays : Very Very FAtttttttttttttttter 50cm thicker
Todays oled displays : Stickers!!! 0.01mm thin !
How Techknowledgy has Grown !
How far from CedarPoint?

Do U have to pay to get in?
It would be a dream come true to visit here!
I remember the Indian Head test pattern. I suppose that would not be allowed today. Like Land-o-Lakes butter.
Someone needs to re-edit the museum’s narration track. The double-breath editing is too much.
