parts for Zenith consoles.
#1

Good Evening All

Can anyone direct me to a source for the tuning drive belts for Zenith consoles? I seem to remember seeing mention of them fleetingly somewhere but can't now relocate the site. Also I'm wondering if there is anyone who specialises in "transfers" or stick on logos for American sets - for example, I'm missing the "Belmont" logo on a small plastic set, and would also like like to replace the paper stickers on the back of the Zenith acoustic adaptors, With thanks,
Jonathan

For Zenith belts, I use Adams.

You can find decals here. http://www.radiodaze.com/ They may be a little slow in responding as they have just moved to a new location and are getting sorted out.

Hi Jonathon,

As an alternative, you can purchase the dial belt kit from Radio Daze. http://www.radiodaze.com/
It consists of 1/8 inch square rubber belt material and a tube of super glue. You just cut it to size, about 10% short of the actual path length and glue it together. This is the product I use.

Or, you could purchase some 1/8 inch oversize o-rings locally and a tube of super glue. Again, you just cut it to size and glue it together. I have used this method and it works fine also.

You can also try Radio Daze for your decals. Another option for decals is AES.

Thanks, Brian, for the adams link. Being in Michigan I should've been aware of it before.

Thanks everyone for the advice. For some reason whenever I click on "post reply" I get timed out, so the only way to respond is to start a new topic, as I'm doing now. I just wanted to mention this if I seem belated in replying

"O" rings from the local hardware store works good for Zenith dial belts , some NOS belts are already 60 years old how good can they be? ,BILL
