Zenith 12-S-265 (chassis 1204)
#2

Well....these are not too bad.
9-S-262 is not that different, so...

Seized motorized drive.
Wash the tuning cap. I didn't. The radio isfine but while tuning it crackles alot.
6T5.....1) the 1M resistor is likely open (a popular problem). You could do the mod I did without opening the socket. 2) you could put the plate switch in and so save 6T5 life, making it glow for the aforementioned special occasions.
Candohm.....possible problems. Both my 11K sections were open.

The rest was easy....oh... 1st RF coil was open. The radio worked fine. Except SW wasn't sensitive.

They are a beautiful beasts, the Zeniths.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
