Whats the model name of this Zenith Porthole

Hi all, got lucky and picked up another zenith porthole in a mahogany finish. It uses the 24H20 dual chassis and is marked on the cabinet as H2439R. It has a Curtis replacement crt (16gp4) that tests very good. Looked around the web and could not find it's model name and just curious if any one here might know it. It's model number is listed on my sams for my H2437E unit. It is not listed on the TVHistory site but looks like the cabinet that the monroe used. Anyways, if anyone has any info it would be appreciated. Ps my other porthole is a Fielding with a maple finish.

My 'Monroe' has H2439RZ marked on it and the cabinet is the same as yours. The chassis is very different though.

I though the Monroe started with a G or at least the tv history website shows it that way. According to the SAMs paperwork, my model came in a 16 or a 19 inch tube with 24h20 chassis. This unit has all of the same parts as my fielding does.
