Cossor Melody Master 523A 20/04/2013 by Gary S. Crutchley

6 5

Dating from 1956 (inside the cabinet there is a date stamp 13th January 1956) this is the Cossor Melody Master 523A seven valve wooden table top radio receiver.

The set tunes to the Long, Medium, Short and FM wavebands, although the latter is very quiet so most probably the 6AQ8 (UCC85) valve needs to be replaced. After being out of action for a while, this unusual set is now back in the world of the living once more, but not perfect yet as a little more work is required.

This Cossor model benefits from magic eye tuning (the green light), which gives a useful visual indication of audio output and radio-frequency signal strength. The magic eye valve was invented by Dr Allen Balcom Dumont in 1934, and was very popular with users due to the rather magical green glow. In this set the magic eye valve is a 65ME (EM81). In this valve the fluorescent target is u-shaped, with the anode being connected to a centralised rod. This arrangement produces a single shadow with varying angles dependent upon the control voltage.

A.C. Cossor Ltd was founded in 1859 at Clarkenwell in London. The company manufactured thermionic valves, domestic radio sets and television receivers until 1950 when they sold their commercial electronics business to Philips. In 1961 Cossor was taken over by the American company Raytheon with whom the Cossor brand name is still associated.

Radio receivers were just a small fraction of A.C. Cossor Ltd’s business, they also produced cathode ray oscilloscopes from 1932, and from the late 1930’s military radar systems. The company was also heavily involved in the development of the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS) radar system installed at RAF Fylingdales. It is rumored that it was losses associated with this particular project that precipitated the demise of Cossor. Raytheon has associations with the Cossor brand name to this day.

Columbia Encyclopedia: Beaverton,

city (1990 pop. 53,310), Washington co., NW Oreg., a suburb of Portland, in a farm area; inc. 1893. Beaverton is the heart of the Silicon Forest high-technology manufacturing complex. Headquarters for electronics companies and NIKE, Inc., are there. Food products, wine, and furniture are also produced.

Wikipedia: Beaverton, Oregon

Beaverton is a city in Washington County, Oregon, United States, seven miles west of Portland in the Tualatin River Valley. As of May 2006, its population is estimated to be 84,270,[1] 9.1% more than the 2000 census figure of 76,129. This makes it the second-largest city in the county and Oregon's sixth-largest city. Beaverton's controversial annexation plans during the next decade are likely to result in major growth in both population and area.

History

According to Oregon Geographic Names, Beaverton got its name because of the settlement's proximity to a large body of water resulting from beaver dams.

The area of Tualatin Valley which became Beaverton was originally the home of a Native American tribe known as the Atfalati which settlers mispronounced as Tualatin. The Atfalati population dwindled in the latter part of the 18th century, and the prosperous tribe was no longer dominant in the area by the 19th century when settlers arrived.[2]

19th century

The natives had a village called Chakeipi, meaning Place of the Beaver, and early settlers referred to it as "Beaverdam". Early settlers include the Hall Family from Kentucky, the Denneys who lived on their claim near present-day Scholls Ferry Road and Hall Blvd, and Orin S. Allen, from western New York, who resided at SW Allen and Hall Blvd.[2]

* 1847: Lawrence Hall (for whom Hall Boulevard is named) purchased 640 acres (2.6 km²) in Beaverdam and built a grist mill with his brother near present-day Walker Road. His was the first land claim in the area.

* 1849: Thomas Denney came to the area and built its first sawmill; Denny Road is named after him.

* 1860: A toll plank road from Portland to Beaverton was completed over a trail called Canyon Road.

* 1868: Joshua Welch, George Betts, Charles Angel, W.P. Watson, John Henry and other settlers of the area laid out what is now known as Beaverton hoping they could bring a railroad to an area once described as "mostly swamps & marshes connected by beaver dams to create what looked like a huge lake."

* 1872: Beaverton's first post office opened under George Betts, the first postmaster, in his general store. Betts Street, where the current post office now stands, is named in honor of him.

* 1893: The city of Beaverton, with a population of 400, was officially incorporated. Alonzo Cady, a local businessman, served as the first mayor.

20th century

Beaverton was an early home to automobile dealerships. A Ford Motor Company dealership was established there in 1915; it was purchased by Guy Carr in 1923 and over the years Carr expanded it into several locations throughout Beaverton.

In the early 1920s, Beaverton was home to Premium Picture Productions, a movie studio which produced about fifteen films. This site was later converted into an airfield known as Watts Airport and thereafter as Bernard's Airport.

The town's first library opened in 1925. Originally on the second floor of the Cady building, it has moved repeatedly; in 2000 it was moved to its current location on Hall Boulevard and 5th.

In the 1980s a light rail system was proposed[3] to connect Beaverton to downtown Portland, as part of Metro's plans for the region's transportation. In 1992, voters approved funding for Westside MAX; the project began construction in 1994 and was completed in 1998, with stations located at Millikan Way MAX station Merlo Road and Southwest 158th Avenue, Beaverton Creek, Beaverton Central, and the Beaverton Transit Center.

21st century

In December 2004, the city and Washington County announced an "interim plan" which will lead to Beaverton becoming the second-largest city in Oregon, second only to Portland.[4] The "interim" plan actually covers a period of more than ten years; from the county's perspective[4], the plan supports its strategy of having cities and special districts provide urban services. From the city's perspective[citation needed], it supports its strategy of continued annexation, beginning with areas already surrounded by the city, which Oregon state law allows to be annexed without landowner approval. Nike led a legal and lobbying effort to resist the annexation.[5] The lobbying effort succeeded quickly, with the Oregon Legislative Assembly enacting Senate Bill 887[6] which prohibit Beaverton from annexing Nike without Nike's consent. Nike continued its legal efforts, which as of July 2006 has cost Beaverton taxpayers over $360,000.[7]

The city and county also agreed to work on ending the "double taxation" of Beaverton property owners who subsidize urban services provided to residents of unincorporated area.

Several nearby unincorporated neighborhoods, even some considered Portland neighborhoods, are affected during the plan's first decade, including Cedar Hills, West Slope, Raleigh Hills and Garden Home. Property owned by Providence St. Vincent Medical Center, and Tektronix would also be affected.

Neighborhoods affected after the plan's first ten years include Bethany, Cedar Mill, and Aloha. If all areas covered by the plan were to be immediately incorporated into Beaverton, the city's present-day population would be 280,000.

Many of these neighborhoods actively oppose annexation because of Beaverton's higher taxation and controversial policing methods (including undercover seatbelt enforcement and photo radar). Court and electoral fights could delay Beaverton's annexation plans.

In 2006, the Murrayhill Little League baseball team qualified for the 2006 Little League World Series, the first Oregon team in 48 years to go that far. Murrayhill advanced to the semifinals before losing; the third-place game was rained out and not rescheduled. In addition, a Junior Softball team from Beaverton went to 2006 World Series in Kirkland, Washington, ending in sixth place.

Economy

Reser's Fine Foods, processor and distributor of fresh prepared foods, has headquartered in Beaverton since 1960. Beaverton is home to the world headquarters of Nike, Inc. Its headquarters are located on an unincorporated area inside, but excluded from, Beaverton city limits. More recently, Beaverton is the headquarters of Tektronix, which manufactures electronics including oscilloscopes and logic analyzers. As part of the Silicon Forest, Beaverton is the home of the Open Source Development Labs and the Linux Technology Center of IBM (formerly Sequent Computer Systems).[8] Cedar Hills Crossing is a shopping mall within the city of Beaverton.

Light Sensor Experiments.

First try out measuring leaf-shutter speed with a simple USB Oscilloscope.

Hmmm.... that Vario shutter seems quite lame !

Guess I also have to go for another light source then that cheap LED-Torch as the switching of its LED introduces quite some "noise" on the signal.

Come make your own gadget, robot or wearable art at Tam Makers!

We started a new ‘open shop’ program called ‘You Can Make It’, to help you create your own maker project with our community. This workshop for adults and teens takes place on Wednesday evenings in our makerspace at Tam High School in Mill Valley. Our first series was held on three Wednesdays in a row: June 29th, July 6th and 13th, between 6 and 9pm.

On the first night, we helped eight participants plan their projects, prepare their materials and develop new skills. They then built their projects the following weeks, with guidance from instructors and other participants.

Here are examples of projects they worked on: a garage door opener, an animated owl, an engraving, solar-powered lights, a theremin, a wooden frame, an illuminated art piece and more. They used a wide range of tools to build them, from Arduino boards to our laser cutter, oscilloscope, and radio transmitters and solar-power technology.

One of the great benefits of this open shop program is that you get a lot more than just access to tools: you join a community of makers who like to make things together and help each other. On that first night, we had three mentors on hand to coach participants: Geo Monley, Fabrice Florin and Donald Day, who also teach at Tam Makers.

Participants seemed to enjoy this ‘You Can Make It’ open shop and told us they got a lot from it. This is one of our first maker workshops at Tam Makers, and we’re really happy that it is going well; we look forward to offering more open shop sessions in the fall.

UNIVAC console by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL)

The UNIVAC at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory had a large console with a series of switches that could be set to address each of the machine's 1,000 words of memory. Once set, the contents of that memory location would be displayed on the console's oscilloscope. An electric typewriter could be used to direct the machine and was useful for debugging. The largest data system was a set of ten tape units, designed to read and write backwards and forwards. These served as an expanded main memory, allowing larger data volumes and even larger programs than would fit in the small amount of main memory.

Transistor curve tracing of an NPN BD139, just using a couple resistors (50Ohm on emitter and 100K on base) and recurring to the 2 outputs of the signal generator SDG1032X. On ch.1 a ramp signal of 8KHz and on ch.2 an 8 step signal of 1KHz.

Don't forget to set the proper signal offset so they start at 0Volt

For proper visualization of a PNP transistor, invert ch.1 and ch.2 on the scope. On the old CRT ones generally only ch.2 can be inverted

CIA Debriefing, 1953:

“The high frequency section under PREIKSCHAT had considerable internal strife. MOLLWO and PREIKSCHAT had differences of opinion on professional problems. MOLLWO, SCHMIDT, and LANGE criticized PREIKSCHAT regularly in their conversations. The department was well stocked with electrical equipment, frequency meters, cathode ray oscilloscopes, meters, etc.

The work was very secretive but […] observe a little of their work outside the building. A flat—type antenna about three meters square and mounted about one meter above the roof of the one-story building was up tor three months during 1951.[…] not believe there was anything in front of the three-meter-square screen.

A conical-type antenna, maybe one and one-half meters long and one and one—half meters in diameter at the mouth, was observed on the ground outside the shop. […] This antenna was under guard at all times. This was set up in 1951. […]

The Soviets took this department over first in their process of taking over the entire organization. Some fifteen Soviets were brought into the department and these Soviets were regarded rather highly by the Germans. The Soviets continued the work of the department using the Germans for consultation from time to time.

Aircraft occasionally came and circled the area. PREIKSCHAT sometime went up in the aircraft. […] the craft was working with the ground installation.

There was never a missile or a missile mock-up on the grounds. Many missile components were lying around. Some rusted away and some were dismantled for parts.”

On the Oscilloscope, CH1 in yellow shows voltage, and CH2 in blue shows current, tracking the timed settings of the PSU output CH1.

A 0.1Ohm shunt resistor was used to measure current.

The Siglent SPD3303X series can have 5 sequential timed settings: voltage/current/duration.

Represented on scope, for all 5 cases, current limit was set for 2A, and 1s duration. Voltage, in the following sequence: 5, 10, 32, 15 and 25V

The SPD3303X-E (10mV/10mA resolution) was converted to a SPD3303X (1mV/1mA resolution).

Voltage was recalibrated according to the Service Manual
