Acquired these two Zenith tabletops today, a 7S530, and an unusual 5 band 7D643T. Zenith oracle has the serial # listed for some 1946 sets that aren't even close. I think it was an export model but cannot verify that.

Looks like I have some more rubber wire to deal with on the 7S530. Second one has almost all the wiring intact. Here are some pics--maybe one of you will recognize the set???

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
