The first time I saw that article, it threw me for a loop because of the shortwave band where most Zeniths of this design have FM. (This radio otherwise resembles Zenith's Y832 table model AM-FM set, down to the tone control in the center of the tuning indicator.)
My first thought was that this must have been an export model, designed for European markets in which the FM band was either nonexistent or was significantly different from the North American one -- the latter, of course, being 88-108 MHz; the former, in many countries, was 86.5-100 or 88-104 MHz.
