1969 Zenith AM radio

[radiotvnut]

Zenith "N" (1966) and "X" (1967) line AM/FM table radios had a handwired chassis with socketed transistors. However, I know of no known AM-only Zenith AC table radio with a metal chassis. I have an early (M-line, 1965) model Zenith AM solid state table radio and it's on a PC board. I will say that for a 4-transistor set, it performs well.

The one I have seems to receive and sound as well as an AA5. That high voltage output transistor is good for one watt.
