Zenith 9-S-262 Restoration Chronicles
#6

Here are some pictures with the IF transformer and coil assemblies installed. I buffed the shields out on a buffing wheel followed by hand polishing with Simichrome. All of the nuts were buffed out on the polishing wheel.

Here is a picture of the volume control, band switch, and the Local/Distance/Power switch. All of these were polished with Simichrome and then sprayed with clear acrylic.

Here is the underside with the band switch mechanism installed as well as the motorized tuning mechanism in place.

I was hoping to get the tuning capacitor installed last weekend but didn't have time. I'll try and get that installed over the 4th and upload some pictures.

Thankyou for the kind words sir. I double checked it with my component tester and it read 2.7 ohms at .02mH.Stormlord5500 — 08:14 AM
