Yeah, might be my suggestion about the Zener.
I restored both of these radios, and both threads are here. I think 6G001 was the first portable Z I did. I changed the electrolytic at the time and was satisfied with it. But then, about 4 or so years ago I got back to it, and did a full recap.
BTW there is a version of 6G001, I think 6G004, which has shortwave band also.
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.
