But old electrolytic capacitors still need to be replaced.Īnyway, I’ll add more to this page over time. But, as with radios, the number of paper capacitors used was steadily reduced over time when they were replaced with ceramic disc capacitors. A TV from that time has about 55 capacitors to replace. They were “loaded” with paper and electrolytic capacitors. TVs, from that time had very small tv screens but very large chassis. So they’re usually the capacitors than need to be replaced to get those sets working again.Ĭommercial TV broadcasting started in the late 1940s. Electrolytic capacitors in sets made in the 1960s and 1970s are so old now that they will need to be replaced. But for the most part they were gone by then, leaving the electrolytic capacitors. A few manufacturers continued to use some of them into the mid 1970s. But by the mid to late 1960s there were very few paper capacitors in radios and TVs. There were a lot more waxy paper capacitors used in radios and TVs made from the 1920s until later in the 1950s when ceramic disc capacitors started to be used instead some of the problematic paper capacitors. Most of the time step 1 is all that’s necessary. This is a part of the electronic restoration that I have started to call “step 1” recently. So all the paper and electrolytic capacitors need to be replaced to get vintage electronic items working correctly. That is kind of like the shelf life of a battery. Something happens to these capacitors over time that turns them into either low value resistors or nothing at all. Many of the problems with these old radios were with the waxy paper capacitors and the old electrolytic capacitors. I think PC (printed circuit) boards started to be used in the 1950s. ![]() Much later radios had printed circuit boards. The circuitry in early radios was hand wired and soldered. Commercial radio broadcasts started in 1920. In 2020 some radios finally became real antiques. To me if it has tubes only and no transistors or PC boards, it’s an antique radio. But when talking about antique radios 25 years or older are thought of as an antique radio by some. Usually an antique is 100 years old or older. The years I prefer to specialize in are from 1920 to about 1975.
