But, what was orange used for? Not sure if I saw them on Zenith, but, have seen them on several others. Watch out. Black was universal chassis, but, I've seen some black wires on one side of the switch. Especially on series string sets. RCA used two black on switch.

Yep!

It's now in the possession of a good friend in Bethlehem PA. I traded it for a Portacolor, that I traded for a bakelite '49 Admiral 12" mini console, that I restored and donated to the InfoAge Museum in Wall NJ.....
