Up for bid is a great playing Zenith Transoceanic R-600 from 1955-1956. When I got this set, the original battery was in it, and I removed the old battery from the box and wired 10 9 volts in series for the B-battery 1 9 volt for the A-battery using the original plug. The radio plays very strong and clear on both battery and 120 AC. The dial and chart light work off of a D battery. The tubes are all Zenith except for the 1U5. The antenna works properly. I can receive shortwave. The tone switches all function properly. The cabinet is in nice shape. The faceplate is crack free. The chart is mint. The leatherette is worn through in 2 small areas. Please look at the last 2 photos. The overall appearance is very nice. I own 5 Transoceanics and this is a good one. The electronics are original and unmolested except for the selenium rectifier which has been replaced with a diode and 180 0hm 25 watt resistor. If you're looking to add a 600 series to you collection, I would give this one a close look. I've tried to capture all aspects of the radio in my photos. This will ship out at 30 lbs. I pack very well and ship only to the lower 48 states USA. If you don't have a lower 48 address, PLEASE don't bid. I will start the auction at $9.99 with no reserve. !!
