It would have made someone a real nice daily watcher as there was almost no hours of use on it. I say that as the chassis was only lightly dusted with all factory Zenith tubes. The crt was super bright and crisp. Man, I better shut up or people are going to want to kick my butt! LOL. It's what happens when ya bring a woman into the home. Now shes gone and it's gone, but there's now room for me to work on my Zenith "roundie"!!!!

If ya still have the thing, I have all sorts of parts.
I've been thinking about buying the tuner and space command hardware off of you to upgrade mine to space command (it has the bezel microphone and chassis shelf space for space command but was not equipped) for a few years. It might finally be time for me to pull the trigger after the ETF.

OK, just let me know in a PM. I will make you a decent deal on the stuff. Like the set was; the parts are in immaculate condition. It's so hard to keep track of everyone. I am thinking that you may have some items worth making a trade on. I'm pretty much into nice vintage radios, meaning I'm getting few if any plain AA5s. 6 tube jobs with power transformers from the 30s and 40s are about the best of radios.

Also, I am into vintage test equipment, but I'm getting quite the pile of that stuff. My big wish is a black face Hickok 209A. Anything Hickok is worth consideration. I need a meter movement for a 209C which seems to be some rare bird.
