This is a restored rare Zenith Sailboat radio, Serial #: T847962. Radio works on all bands, and all Electrolytics have been replaced, also the rectifier tube 117Z6, has been replaced with a solid state system, the tube was left in place but is not in the circuit now. All capacitors needing replacing were replaced, (almost all needed replaced) lots or rewiring old frayed wires also were replaced. The band switch was cleaned and works great now. A very nice working radio. The Zenith serial number list shows three blocks for the 7G605 (chassis 7B04). Code T (pale blue serial number tag). This radio is 951 manufactured, in the first run, at that time they were using the sailboat speaker grill covers, but soon after this radio they started installing the bomber grill as we were entering WWII. The 7G605s, were only made for a few months as Zenith stopped producing radios for the public and went into work for the government until after the war. The sailboat is the first version. I do not know how many were made, but for sure NOT MANY. The item “Zenith 7G605 sailboat vintage shortwave radio, restored condition. Like a Bomber” is in sale since Friday, October 06, 2017.
