Space Command! :)

[nasadowsk]

I just got a neat 19 "Portable" Zenith with Space Command. Pics to follow, but this set's pretty interesting - it has no tuning knob, just a fine tune knob and a button to punch through the channels. It's pre 1964, and looks to be pure tube - even has a 5U4 in it. The remote chassis is upside down on the ceiling of the cabinet. It's a slim cabinet bottom chassis, looks like a 110 tube (though it's octal base - maybe it's a 90?). Bright/contrast/V hold on the side.

It look budget, but I can't imagine a low end zenith would have gotten space command on it.

It (almost) works. The tuner's acting up and the set's weak reception. It's surely NOT up to what Zeniths can do - very snowy and no omph. Looks like it'll need some work, but I've got the Sams coming in a few months.

The remote doesn't work, but the donating party said that and knew what was up with it.

Well, anyway, I'll get pics of it, even though it's not much to look at. Sure is dusty in there, too
