Hi - Does anybody know where I might find a schematic for this radio? It a Zenith 6-S-843BT export model. Searching only turned up a couple of Spanish and Portuguese magazine ads and a couple of old Ebay auctions, no schematics. Rider's doesn't have it. I want to say the cabinet was stamped 1948, but I'm too lazy to go to the basement to check  Icon_biggrin .

I just started to refinish the cabinet and would like to align it before I put it back together. I could probably figure it out on my own, but would rather have a schematic if one exists.

Greg

Your set has a duel voltage power transformer so maybe that is the only difference!!!! Found this kinda maybe it will work. Stay safe David       http://www.nostalgiaair.org/Resources/245/M0025245.htm
