Stacking consoles is an option...

I'm reluctant to stack even table models on top of consoles. I currently have a 1937 Zenith 5 tube radio and a 1960 Zenith 7 tube radio on top of the CTC-25, and that seems to be its limit. The CTC-120 seems to be a little more resilient to weight - I have a 1977 RCA VBT-200 and a 1985 RCA CTC-117 on top of it, and it doesn't look too stressed out. Do y'all think the Zenith Chromacolor has a 23EC15 or a 25EC58 chassis? I really hope it's the former.

Console is probably a 25EC58 BUT mid year on
these sets were changed over to the upright 25EC45.
Could be a C or D line also. Near identical electronics.
Its NOT a remote set. Remotes have no expossed knobs. There
would be a long up & down window for the channel numbers,
14 position IIRC.

Table model is apx Y line custom series with 9-181 main board.
Solid set but bottom of line & wickid common.
