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

Ron

Several of us restored 9S262 and several of us put the account threads in here, so you will have some info, and of course, any one of use who's done that already will help you as we already have our share of bumps and bruises. Zenith is not the hardest one to restore. Actually if anything it is simpler than many Philcos - no bakelite caps to restuff, no subchassis, and ample space. The wiring is traditional, no rubber or anything bad.

For Candohm I recommend a terminal strip with screw connections. No, does not look authentic, but then there's no known good way to restuff a Candohm. I guess the very name of it implies one-time use, and then it is discarded Icon_lol

Well, let's see how you treat the lady and whether she reciprocates Icon_smile

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
