PU one of these for three dollars at a yard sale yesterday. It's model
#6-G-601-M, has a 'sailing ship' sewn into the cloth grill over the
speaker.

It's just AM but what the hey, I saw one on ebay. Any one in here ever
own
one and can tell me about the performance, I've googled all night. One
guy
said "it's could really pu those signals"..but that is just one persons
opinion.

It has a real cool looking 'Wave Magnet' in the back that is connected to
the radio, pretty wild looking IMO...lol....anyone have any idea as to
the
year it was made or a link you can throw my way?

It'd be appreciated. :-)

Got some hams booming in on 3.880 here in Cinti. Oh. at 1310 UCT.

Does it look like this, except yours has a sailboat where this one has a
bomber?

There was a thread on this radio on rec.antiques.radio+phono titled Zenith
"Bomber".

Yep. That's it Frank, with the exception of instead of the
'Bomber'......it is a 'sailing boat'......same exact look, everything.

The rec.antiques.radio+phono Zenith "Bomber" thread may still be on your
news server, it's still on mine. It started 10-7 or thereabouts. There's
several people who are knowledgeable on battery powered tube portables
there.
