Should be nothing to it. Zenith tuners are the easiest to remove and service because all the wires are plugged in, so the tuner can be removed independently of the chassis. Only four wires to unhook. Brown is the 6.3V for the filaments and dial light, Red is the B+ (I think its 250V on that chassis) and yellow is the AGC and the last being the IF lead in. You might have an AGC problem in that tuner. The green B+ dropping resistor may be suspect.

If worse comes to worse, hunt down one of those cheap plastic "cable TV convetors" from the early 1980's, that upconvert VHF channels to UHF.


p.s.: I'm in MI, let me know if you want rid of it :-)
