    wynford hall 24F18 multiband radio schematic

    I'm having a hard time finding a schematic for this radio From what I've found out is that it was sold under different names, it was manufactured by Ross Electronics. Which was also the Continental Radio company and some wore the Ross name plate as well as Admiral, another Continental brand. With all these sellers you would think schematics would be available but so far I've had no luck. If anyone has an idea where I could get them would be greatly appreciated. The reason I want them as I want to replace the caps to get rid of hum and generally improve it. A couple of other brands are Laurence and vintage.
    Thanks Richard.
    Hey Marino, maybe you have one? BTW they where built in the '70s

    the correct name of the manufacturer is "Continental Radio and Television" Chicago IL.

      might be worth you messaging shango066 through his youtube channel as he has a fair few videos etc about this type of radio repair he might know where to locate a schematic.

        Schematic vs. Reality: Where Are the Resistors on My Sharp Clock Radio? Model FY-70CH
        by TinkerTron
        Hey everyone,

        I'm currently working on a mid-70s Sharp Electronic Digital Clock Radio, Model FY-70CH. I found the service manual online, printed it out, and have been studying it for a while. My main reasons for tackling this are: (1) I want to learn electronics and figured I'd start with something I had on hand, and (2) I want to fix its issues. Right now, the radio sounds awful, has about 5V DC at the speaker terminals, and the alarm time setting doesn't work. But I'm not asking how to fix these problems.

        Instead, here's what's been bugging me so far:
        The schematic...

        clock radio / radio lifespan?
        by shelby5041
        hi
        ive got a modern digital clock radio approx 15yrs old

        my question is how long can a clock radio or a simple radio last ss farcas operating hours?

        since elec components have limited hour lifecspan i would imagine the radio or clock radio would eventually fail.

        the reason i ask is because i have my clock radio on radio function 24/7 for the past 7 years and its still working fine....i leave the radio on ..never turn off past 7years...thats approx 60000 hours

        it uses very little power just a few watts i would imagine that may have something...

        Vintage SONY Digital Clock Radio ICF-C12W no audio
        by UserXP
        Dear all,

        I have this old radio clock by Sony from the early 80s, I guess. The clock display works, but is dim, the function board appears to be OK - but the radio unit shows no signs of life. It doesn't produce a single noise, crack or anything from either FM or AM band. It's like it doesn't even power up.
        i opened the radio and it is full of some TRACON gray capacitors. They only have their negative strip printed, voltage and capacitace markings - no series, no temperature marking, nothing else.
        My question is, do you know of this brand of capacitors and how bad are...
