Another Zenith 9-S-262 thread
#1

Instead of imposing on other people's threads I thought it would be better to start a new one.

Back at Christmas time my brother-in-law, who is a realtor, called to tell me he found a radio inside the wall of a house he had bought to flip. He removed the chassis and gave it to me for Christmas. It turned out to be a Zenith 9-S-262 shutter dial. Unfortunately he didn't get the speaker and another realtor had sold the house before he could get back to it.

I restored the chassis and kept an eye open for a cabinet and speaker.

I was lucky enough to find an empty cabinet at the Kutztown show in May.

I started to reglue the cabinet.

The speaker board was too bad to reglue.

I removed the speaker board, which started to fall apart, and used it as a template to make a new board.

OK, we're up to date. More to follow.
