Zenith H-500 Trans-Oceanic (1951)
(suitcase tube portable radio w/SW)

Zenith H-500 Trans-Oceanic (1951)

THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Here is a very nice H500 that is as old as I am! Overall mechanically and electrically sound. I replaced the Bumblebee caps, some resistors, all tubes are premium, even the 1L6. Included is a spare 1U4 and 3V4 and all the service data. Alignment has been done and its a pretty hot receiver even on the whip antenna. Great tone, all controls cleaned and lubed. Tuning is accurate. Those pushbutton band switches have been carefully cleaned and the felt bumper strips are all in great shape. The "leatherette" is good, slight wear, but not a "shoe polish special." No rips or missing parts. The suction cup accessory is missing, but they never work anyway!
