This is the first time I've come across one of these tape transport preamplifiers, so I know very little about them. Taking it on as a challenge became irresistible, obviously. It belongs to the friend who also brought me the all-tube mic preamplifier that I did some videos on recently. Some really cool vintage audio transformers are used here, which are very rare today, and modern equivalents are quite expensive, so I'm hoping for a great final result. Hope you enjoy it.

Join me as I delve into the restoration process of the SABA Stereo I Radio, focusing specifically on the power supply. This stage is crucial, as without a functional power supply, the radio simply won't work. In this video, I'll be showing you how I discovered a particular type of resistor that seems to be faulty, and there are quite a few of them in the radio. To help you understand the process, I'll be demonstrating in detail how I keep a record of the checks and repairs using a PDF schematic and Adobe Reader. This is a great video for anyone who is interested in radio restoration, or for anyone who wants to learn more about the inner workings of a classic radio. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the video. I hope you find it informative and entertaining!

The drum selector on this Grundig Satellit 3400 Pro is quite daunting, but ultimately not too complicated to align. We are ultimately aligning the oscillator, the filter, and the antenna circuits, to best operate on the band and frequency that we are tuned to. The bands extend beyond 20MHz, the limit of my signal generator, so harmonics have to be called in. Nothing too complicated, but hopefully, interesting.
