Silvertone 1968
#1

Some of you know that I also collect the Silvertone "green dial" sets. Got a good one today, a model 1968 console. It is a 12 tube, four band set with variable IF like the 1905/55/65 sets and has four 45 tubes for the output.

I already have it apart and must obtain a schematic for it before I begin it's renovation.

Had one globe 45, which was the only bad 45. Figures.

Also at some time in the past it had been converted from a 5Z3 to a 5U4 rectifier, which is fine. Oh yes, the 5U4 was dead too, probably because I dropped the _____ (bad word) thing and it broke.
