Nice look Zenith with a little elbow grease, must have been top of the line with the 2 speakers and the tuning eye. I kinda like the placement of the cock-eyed eye.

That tuning eye is a later add on, and not a well done one, IMHO.

Shame about the eye add-on. Otherwise nice set!
Cheers!

Unfortunately, I cannot see it at work as ebay is blocked, but this is the exact reason the 2E5 magic eye tube exists.

It was made to retrofit early 30s radios with 2.5V tubes and AVC.
It was never used in a production radio.

Granted, how well the installation is done changes things.

I have a GE J107 and a Stromberg Carlson 51 with a 2E5 installed.
I've considered returning the Stromberg Carlson back to its original state as I do have the correct tuning meter to install, but should I?
I'm on the fence. Thoughts?

Here ya go, Steve.... I DO think that's one of the coolest "eye" escutcheons I have ever seen, though.

It just kinda winks atcha, doesn't it?

Reminds me a bit of this radio.


It is a cool escutcheon you don't see often.
Thanks for posting the pictures, Andy!
