Long before that, they bought Central Electroincs, which made SSB transmitters, that was in the early sixties. And soon after, the dvision disappeared, not enough income but likely nothing that could be translated into more income. Michael Did ok for a while. Gone now. |

I own an old Zenith computer, and a whole slew of old Zenith radios, and one Zenith 21'' screen wood cabinet floor model color TV set I bought in 1965 when I got out of the Army.

Zenith flybacks, much more than in other brands, tended to develop internal arcing that caused them to eat themselves in spectacular fashion. I've seen several that had nothing left but a burned coil of copper surrounded by the ashes of what used to be the insulation. |
