Richtige Fernseher haben Röhren!

In Brief: On this site you will find pictures and information about some of the electronic, electrical and electrotechnical Obsolete technology relics that the Frank Sharp Private museum has accumulated over the years .
Premise: There are lots of vintage electrical and electronic items that have not survived well or even completely disappeared and forgotten.

Or are not being collected nowadays in proportion to their significance or prevalence in their heyday, this is bad and the main part of the death land. The heavy, ugly sarcophagus; models with few endearing qualities, devices that have some over-riding disadvantage to ownership such as heavy weight,toxicity or inflated value when dismantled, tend to be under-represented by all but the most comprehensive collections and museums. They get relegated to the bottom of the wants list, derided as 'more trouble than they are worth', or just forgotten entirely. As a result, I started to notice gaps in the current representation of the history of electronic and electrical technology to the interested member of the public.

Following this idea around a bit, convinced me that a collection of the peculiar alone could not hope to survive on its own merits, but a museum that gave equal display space to the popular and the unpopular, would bring things to the attention of the average person that he has previously passed by or been shielded from. It's a matter of culture. From this, the Obsolete Technology Tellye Web Museum concept developed and all my other things too. It's an open platform for all electrical Electronic TV technology to have its few, but NOT last, moments of fame in a working, hand-on environment. We'll never own Colossus or Faraday's first transformer, but I can show things that you can't see at the Science Museum, and let you play with things that the Smithsonian can't allow people to touch, because my remit is different.

There was a society once that was the polar opposite of our disposable, junk society. A whole nation was built on the idea of placing quality before quantity in all things. The goal was not “more and newer,” but “better and higher" .This attitude was reflected not only in the manufacturing of material goods, but also in the realms of art and architecture, as well as in the social fabric of everyday life. The goal was for each new cohort of children to stand on a higher level than the preceding cohort: they were to be healthier, stronger, more intelligent, and more vibrant in every way.

The society that prioritized human, social and material quality is a Winner. Truly, it is the high point of all Western civilization. Consequently, its defeat meant the defeat of civilization itself.

Today, the West is headed for the abyss. For the ultimate fate of our disposable society is for that society itself to be disposed of. And this will happen sooner, rather than later.

OLD, but ORIGINAL, Well made, Funny, Not remotely controlled............. and not Made in CHINA.

Every CRT Television saved let revive knowledge, thoughts, moments of the past life which will never return again.........

Many contemporary "televisions" (more correctly named as displays) would not have this level of staying power, many would ware out or require major services within just five years or less and of course, there is that perennial bug bear of planned obsolescence where components are deliberately designed to fail and, or manufactured with limited edition specificities..... and without considering........picture......sound........quality........
..............The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of todays funny gadgets low price has faded from memory........ . . . . . .....
Don't forget the past, the end of the world is upon us! Pretty soon it will all turn to dust!

Have big FUN ! !

SUPERLA (Cresa Radio; Modena) 23" CRT TUBE PHILIPS A59-23W.

















CRT TUBE  PHILIPS  A59-23W
59cm (23in) direct viewing television tube with metal backed screen and reinforced envelope. A separate safety screen is not required. This tube is electrically identical to the A59-11W. Suitable for use in receivers with push-through presentation.

Deflection  110°  deg
Focusing  Electrostatic
Light transmission (approx.) 50 %
Maximum overall length  36.7 cm.


FOCUSING Electrostatic
The range of focus voltages shown in 'OPERATING CONDITIONS' results
in optimum overall focus at a beam current of 250nA.

DEFLECTION Magnetic

EXTERNAL CONDUCTIVE COATING
This tube has an external conductive coating, M, which must be connected to chassis, and the capacitance of this coating to the final anode is used to provide smoothing for the e.h.t. supply. The electrical connection to this coating must be made within the area specified on the tube outline drawing.


MOUNTING POSITION
Any. The tube socket should not be rigidly mounted but should have flexible leads and be allowed to move freely. The bottom circumference of the base shell will fall within a circle of 40mm diameter which is centred upon the perpendicular from the centre of the face. This tube is fitted with a pin protector in order to avoid damage to the glass base due to bending of the base pins whilst handling the tube. It is advisable to keep this pin protector on the base until it can be replaced by the socket after installation of the tube in any equipment.


NOTES
1. Adequate precautions should be taken to ensure that the receiver is protected from damage which may be caused by a possible high voltage flashover within the cathode ray tube.

2. Maximum pulse duration 22% of one cycle with a maximum of 1,5ms.

3. The d.c. value of bias must not be such as to allow the grid to become positive with respect to the cathode, except during the period immediately after switching the receiver on or off when it may be allowed to rise to +2V, It is advisable to limit the positive excursion of the video signal to +5V (pk) max, This may be achieved automatically by the series connection of a 10k resistor.

4. During an equipment warm-up period not exceeding 15 seconds Vp 4 (pk) max, (cathode positive) is allowed to rise to 410V. Between 15 and 4 seconds after switching on, a decrease in vp 4 (px) max. (cathode positive) proportional with time from 410V to 250V is permissible.

 The metal band (B) should be connected directly to the chassis in an a.c. receiver operating from an isolating transformer, or via a suitable leakage path in an a.c./d.c. receiver. The mounting lugs will be in electrical contact with the metal band.

WARNING
X-ray shielding is advisable to give protection against possible danger of personal injury arising from prolonged exposure at close range to this tube when operated above 20kV.
