Truly Great Radio

If you have not had the pleasure of playing around with a tube-powered Zenith Transoceanic, boy, are you missing out. Great stuff. I am starting to feel that there have been no good portable radios available new since 1962. : ) Anybody else feel the same way? Yep. They are good radios even after all these years. I've got a 8G005 that never fails to please. I might be letting the cat out of the bag, but for those that like to dx the mw band, the Zenith transistor portables, especially the 500H will hold its own. Zenith was a great and proud company in those days. It still saddens me to think of there demise after the Japanese radio invasion. Have fun with your Zenith. They don't make 'em like that anymore. |
