I have the training manual for 25cc55, I described the tuner above.
Never seen one in person & not even a pix of the front, just
the guts. The set has to be super rare. You pay a premium for a
Zenith, doors, solid state, varactor tuners & remote. Had to be
$900-$1100 back then, a LOT of money. Never sold many door sets,
not popular & only on high end sets. At the end of the model year
we would buy some on close out cheap & usually removed the doors.
