My new FeldFu.b

[Gabbertje]

For your review, I have got my newest Feldfu.b here.

I like it very much. It is in a very nice condition and everything looks technicaly OK for me.
It's the forst one in my collection and I really enjoy it!

Does anyone from you know, how I can get it back to work again? I don't want to do anything wrong there.

And maybe you know any source for the missing parts, like the "Rückenstütze" or the Cabel for the "Bediengerät"? Thank you very much in advance!


Thank you all very much in advance!





















































kind regards,

Nice early b in good condition, congratulations!

As for getting it back to work again, without any measuring equipment and experience I would leave it, as there is some risk of damaging it. For example there is a small "EisenWasserstoff Wiedersand" to regulate the voltage in the remote control circuit, if this has been replaced with a wrong type there is a chance of burning out the remote control circuit.

There are some small signs that the set may have been "serviced" in recent time, the covers have been off and one of the valves has a small sticker applied, the things you typically see if it has been in the hands of a radio collector.

As for finding the missing backrest and cable, it will be hard to find originals. It seems that 80% of surviving Feldu's are missing these accessories with few being offered. It has been a few years now since I have seen any on Ebay.

There is this guy in Norway selling replica backrests: http://home.online.no/~perchri/wehrm_foto.htm

Although I do not particularly like the way he adornes everything incorrectly with fake Wa.A stamps and big eagles, his website does give some useful information. (read the "known problems with the Feldfu series" section to understand more about the issues of getting it back to work....)

Thank you, very nice feldfu. Regarding repairing - you most probably should start from vibrator module (zerhacker) - opening it and cleaning the contacts since age does the damage. If you have not any experience in repairing but still wish to get it into working order it would be wise to ask someone near you to do this as a service - i guess someone in this forum certainly will help you.

Hello Gabbertjie

An other problem with this transceiver is the audio transformer ü1 see : http://home.online.no/~perchri/tegn_berta.jpg
If you have a coil cut, it is not easy to remove it from its shield
The wire used in the different winding is very thin (a few hundredths of a millimetre)
you have the data of the coil on this component ü1
Rewinding is not easy and more difficult (application experience)

hello like other had said , it's neccessary to begin with power supply , a good working vibrator , then 4 capacitors ar 20 uf to change , sometimes also the multi capacitor , the sirutor diode
then if you look to schematic , there is an electrolitic capacitor of 1500 uf put in NF module and that must be absolutely change , as even with power supply ok , it will short circuit the 2,4 v .
this job must be done by people having some knowledge of restoring .
