In this video:
We are back on the Zenith AA5 5D810Y "The Pacemaker" radio to continue with this restoration series. Starting off with replacing the cone on the 4" Speaker and then re-stringing the tuning gang. I also wanted to spend some time testing and replacing several circuit resistors and swapping out the 35L6GT Audio Amp Tube for a 50L6GT which is how it would have come from the factory. We end the video with IF and Antenna Alignments.
If interested in @Mymatevince channel, where I got the merchandise from, visit him at youtube.com/c/Mymatevince
He is currently doing a restoration series on a Rolls Royce which I found interesting.
