who made this radio chassis?
I picked this up a few years back on epay, partially recapped it, it worked fair. Works pretty good now after i restuffed the paper can and replaced a tube socket. Yes theres a zenith front panel off to the side that came with it, but it doesnt come close to fitting the knobs. The knobs on it are from an old sonora i had. So..what is this?

There was so many chassis of that type. The was the tubes and IF transformers were mounted, it is out of a radio phono table combo. When replying, include some of the part numbers of the major components, ie, the IF transformers, speaker, output transformer, tuning condenser. It could be a Warwick built, Silvertone.

Well the speaker says its part # 49cz602, then below that 343823, the transformer says 843819, well the one paper can says zenith on it but..its part22-1707ao. Beyond that, i think the previous owner did a good job sanding and steel wooling this thing to have near no numbers on it.
Perhaps it could have been a zenith and the front plate went to the missing record player section? Ive just been bored and tinkered with this a bit.

Given the rear direction of the tubes I am thinking some kind of economy chairside radio. Dial facing up, tubes down for service. Just a guess.

Zenith model 6R886. Chassis 6E02. Information found in Riders Vol. 17. Zenith pages 16&17. An interesting design.
