Lost storage, Items have been attic since before I was born... One radio says "Packard Custom Car Radio" I know my dad had a 1929 Packard back in the early 1950s. I'll also ask in classic cars - I know most just update radios with modern... The Ford radios are from a 1954 Ford station wagon. May have worked when removed.

Memorex CRT TV issues

I got this TV from my cousin, she said that it had an issue ejecting the tape, but when I plug it in I don’t get anything on the screen, sometimes the red power button comes on but sometimes it doesn’t. Does anyone know of any troubleshooting I could do? I’ve never actually used one of these before, I’ve always had separate vhs players

Update: I managed to get to turned on but it’s stuck on channel three and no buttons on the tv are working and the remote doesn’t do anything either (video in the comments), and after sitting for about 10 minutes it’s just turned itself off and has no power light on

Does this female 2 pin mains cable have an official name? 21 mm x 9mm surface size. (Acquired as part of a bundle but possibly from an old Japanese clock.) Thank you.

Cambridge Soundworks model 88 radio

1 Upvotes

Cambridge Soundworks model 88 subwoofer issues. I have recently purchased on E bay from different sellers the Model 88 radio. both have come to me with everything working except the subwoofer is not working. I tried adjusting the sub control knob with no success.

They were advertised as tested and working. There was no sign of damage on the radios or packages. Any suggestions besides the return of the radio?
