Zenith 6B 129 conversion to 110v ac operation
#3

Hi Claude,
You've got an interesting problem. What you will need to build is a power supply that can deliver 6VDC for the filaments,pilot lamps,the #19 tube ,and speaker field coil. Approximately 3amps. For the HV you'll need about 180vdc@40ma for the output and 160vdc@30ma for the rest of the set. It may be easier for you to get the old vibrator pak going and run it off the straight 6vdc supply or 6v car battery.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
