Yes Tim. It seems Zenith did like Atwater Kent and reluctantly gave it to having to make lower-priced radios to stay competitive. I must say that this model L that I have is a simple design, but great quality in and out and very good performance. Better than my Philco 70 "Baby Grand". It seems the more established companies always waited a year or so on an innovative product another company put out to see how well it was accepted.
