With its Nixies and punched-card memory, the Scott T-33S might be the most retro-futuretastic Hi-Fi FM tuner ever made.

Easily the most Techmoan piece of hi-fi equipment of all time, I'm impressed
I admire your ability to buy something as beautiful as this and put it in storage for years without instantly powering it up and playing with it for days on end!
At 10-bit capacity, this is surely the smallest yet coolest memory card ever invented.
SN74xx is the name for the TTL class IC's, the other ones without the SN before is date codes, like 7325, eg year 1973 and week 25.
Punch card - check nixie tube - check 1970s HiFi equipment - check old geezer spending half an hour demonstrating it - check ok that's peak Techmoan right there!
Saturday morning coffee with a new Techmoan... couldn't be off a better start! Thanks!
Techmoan is so into showing off forgotten music formats that even his RADIO tuner uses physical media! 😮
That must be one of the earliest uses of the phrase "memory card reader" on a piece of consumer equipment.
Made a punched card work and turn the volume: We are the champions. EPIC WIN
This is like something someone made up specifically for a Techmoan vid.
That feel when you can recognise a song before it's played long enough to get a strike.
That's an unbelievably cool radio.
26:55 Your humor is what keeps me tuning-in, Mat! Never change!
Back when the future was something to be excited about.
This has to be the nerdiest radio ever made. I love it!
What a beautiful design ❤
Incredibly bizarre "memory" mechanism there – I never would have imagined anyone would have done something like it!
I listened to BFBS @ 96,5 frequently when I was younger. Greetings from Germany!
"I can't think of a single reason why they moved away from this system, it seems fool proof" 🤣 peak sarcasm level reached
Like others have said it is 7400 series logic and the date codes are the lower line, so 1973 (73xx where xx is the week.)
