Zenith 9S262 - What have I done now?
#2

Ron, I'd be on the lookout for another chassis mostly for mechanical stuff, and when you get it, then decide which is the donor and which is the keeper. I'd rip out anything that doesn't seem to be original along with all the caps and carbons, and rebuild. Cabinet seems nice enough, but since it's a Z how's the power tranny?

It might snow again before this fills your room with mellow sound and the smell of old components toasting the air as only they can.

Of course if it were a Philco, we wouldn't be having this conversation, right? Ribs and corn about done, so time to eat. Best
