Flyback temperature

I may have to try that. The coil has three terminals as it is center tapped. I hate to, but I assume that I would connect the D cell to the outside terminals. Makes sense I suppose. If my old original slug is the same dimension as the Thordarson "direct" replacement then I am in business.

However, I tried adjusting after the current went high, so there may not be a reason to further try to turn the slug that was dipped to 200mA to begin with. Perhaps, and worse case scenario I will be able to find someone with a spare Zenith chassis that would sell me one, but I had zero luck with that before. Maybe this is why everyone has RCAs. Stick with what everyone has so you have resources for parts. I like Zenith and it's really amazing that the set works to the degree that it does being that old and dormant for several decades.
