Need something identified
 
Can anyone identify this? and is there schematics available for it? it appears to be a Zenith radio power supply/amplifier, but aside from that I dont know.

Date code on one of the caps suggests a manufacture date of 1947, so that is helpful in locating a sams/schematic/model number. Based on that, the Sams would be a double digit sams set (Sams 35-90 or so). ETF has some early Zenith data - check that out as a resource.

Yea I dont have any sams or riders at all. So ill have to hunt online to see if there is any free data.

The power supply chassis looks like it's from a Zenith Model 12h090.
The chassis number 11c21.
The radio had AM, SW, FM1 (old band) and FM2 new band.
The Sam's number was 462-20 from July 1946.

Sams 2, folder 20. Sams numbered their early sets with the year, followed by set/folder. Sams 462-20 would be Sams 2, folder 20.

The schematic has the old convention of resistance - 47M, for example is not a 47 megohm, but a 47K. Same with the 330M - It's a 330k.

:scratch2: Interesting set indeed . I looked at the Nostalgia Air schematic and the first thing that caught my eye was the odd selection of tube base styles used . Exactly one 7 pin mini (6AG5 being used as the RF amp) and one Loctal (7W7 being used as the 2nd IF) with the rest being Octals .

I was also kinda wondering about the single 5Y3 being asked to feed all the tubes' B+ , and do it with enough power to produce decent sound from the pair of 6V6s ....
