November 1961 Radio-Electronics Cover - RF Cafe[Table of Contents]

Wax nostalgic about and learn from the history of early electronics. See articles from Radio-Electronics, published 1930-1988. All copyrights hereby acknowledged.

Per their homepage, "Since 1946 SAMS Technical Publishing manuals have been the standard that repair technicians have insisted upon having to provide professional repairs to their customers. Our original Quickfact manuals and Photofact® manuals have been designed to provide reliable, consistent repair data for electronics repair technicians, antique electronics restorers, and hobbyist. SAMS Technical Publishing has been the gold standard in the repair industry for TVs, VCRs, Radios, etc. Why would you settle for anything less than the original? For those models and/or chassis not covered by SAMS Photofact® manuals or Quickfact manuals, we have available OEM owners manuals and service manuals that can be ordered in both hard copy and electronic formats." I bought schematics for my 1941 Crosley 03CB console radio from them. BTW, if you happen to know anything about the "PEET" program mentioned at the bottom of the page, please let me know. I cannot find information about it anywhere.

the famous Howard W. Sams Standard Notation Schematic!

as easy to read as a road map ... makes circuit tracing and parts identification simple, quick, accurate ... saves you hours each day for more profitable servicing ...

This Amazing Feature-Packed Schematic Gives You All the Right Answers at a Glance!

1 Uniform schematic layout. Each receiver circuit can be located quickly, since layout is always the same, regardless of receiver make.

2 Voltages are shown at all tube pins and test points for speed and convenience - no time-wasting separate reference charts to fumble through.

3 Shows actual photos of waveforms at key check points for quick comparison with those obtained on your own scope.

4 "CircuiTrace" numbers on schematic are keyed to actual photos of printed boards, for easy location of specific circuit points.

5 Component item numbers are keyed to chassis photos for parts location, and to parts list to enable you to quickly determine proper replacement.

6 Special capacitor and resistor ratings are shown on the schematic; valuable where tolerances are a factor in replacement parts consideration.

7 Coil and transformer color codes or terminal identifications are given to speed tracing of connections.

8 Test points are shown for speedy reference in measuring and servicing.

9 Special currents (B+ supply, horizontal output cathode, vertical output cathode, etc.) are given, to isolate improperly operating circuits or components.

10 Alignment points are identified on the schematic and photos, and are keyed in with the alignment procedures for rapid, error-free adjustments.

11 Tube functions are shown on schematic and Tube Placement Charts to help you quickly isolate troubles.

12 Complete identification of controls and switches quickly shows their functions without needless circuit tracing. Arrows Indicate direction of rotation to help you understand circuit operation.

13 Coil resistances over 1-ohm are shown - a great help in determining shorted turns, opens, etc. - avoids misleading continuity tests.

14 Polarity and section identification of electrolytic capacitors are easily determined from the schematic -saves valuable time in identifying component sections.

15 Fuse ratings are shown on schematics and Tube Placement Charts for quick replacement; handy for in-home service work.

The Standard Notation Schematic is just one of dozens of great features in Photofact for fastest, easiest, more profitable servicing. See your Sams Distributor for full details on an Easy Buy Library or Standing Order Purchase!
