Hi everyone. This is a far shot and chance, because I don't have too much information.
When I was young, my dad bought me a Zenith portable transistor radio around 1980-1981. I am trying to remember the model number. Memory has failed me, I have no documentation on it and there is sparse to no information on the net for the last generation of radios, as I have searched for hours upon hours. The info I have & remember from mind:
The AM receive was awesome, day & night. The S-Meter was great, seeing local daytimer AM's signing off and that signal dropping to nothing, or dropping from day to night towers, would see a drop in S-Units. The audio from it was loud and clear. If I get lucky and one of you remember this model, you will save me a ton of hair loss and simply reconnect me to my youth and possibly locating one. ![]() On a side note...... BOTH my parents worked for Zenith in Chicago. My mom worked at the plant on Austin and Dickens soldering in the mid to late 60s. My dad worked at the Plant on Grand Ave and Natchez Ave (which later was renamed "Zenetron"), manufacturing Hearing Aids up until the early 80s. Zenith layed everyone off and headed to Mexico. Warm Regards. |
