Zenith 6G001Y - starting
#16

Yesterday did full recap/restuff. Forgot to take a picture, but since no resistors were changed and the only modern cap (XY rated) is black, small and is not noticeable, the underbelly looks practically original. Even the cord, old molded type.

Aligned it, IF was really off....not sure if I aligned it back then or just got it playing and put away.
Plays surprisingly well, even from AC.

Ordered the batteries for 4 radios, two 909 and two 985. One 909 will go in this one.
Next one up probably is going to be the 5G500.
Good looking radio, but in need of a new handle. Bought it for $40 in Kutztown at least 3 years ago....maybe 4....

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.
