THIS RADIO HAS BEEN SOLD!

Zenith didn't make a lot of cathedral radios. They were late in the market as Philco had introduced their "Baby Grand" cathedral and became industry leaders with the design. The "Zenette" cathedrals helped the company out of some financial difficulties, but Zenith had few cathedrals and lagged behind other companies. The 805 was the last cathedral Zenith produced. This five-tube, two-band (SB,police) set is a pretty good performer. We went in and replaced all of the capacitors with new equivalents. We checked all of the resistors and tubes, replacing where necessary. We installed a new power cord, safety fuse and an audio input cable. The set has really nice fidelity and sensitivity across the dial. Gary stripped the cabinet and finished up with a satin lacquer finish. The radio has the original 6-inch speaker, chassis and dial scale. The grille cloth and knobs are reproductions. These radios don't show up very often, and here is a nicely restored one ready for your collection! 15"H x 13"W x 9"D.
