Pilot light connections on Zenith MJ-1035

[Nolan Woodbury]

Hi Jeff,

The red lamp in the middle of your MJ's faceplate is in fact, the FM stereo indicator. I have the operating guide that I got with my second MJ...I'll burn you a copy and send it. That said, perhaps the lamp does connect near the "Matrix amp- Multiplex det" or "V8" tube placement section? Like you, I do not see the lamp on my schematic, but that is another concern.

Your MJ has chassis # 11J01? That's news to me. The Photofact folder I ordered (Set 647 Folder 13) is for chassis numbers 12J01 and 12J01Z, dated Aug. 1963. I can say the MJ-1035 has twelve tubes -both early and late versions. I have the tube listing if you need it, but mine is getting hard to read.

I have a stripped MJ that I can look at without pulling one of my working units apart. If it isn't traceable, I'll look at one of the others. Give me a bit of time-
