Quick lookup for the Sams date is January 1, 1973.So it probably came out late 1972 just in time for Christmas 1972..

nasadowsk was asking for the date info.

90 hits . Anybody can help me with this radio.Any takers..

Must be a rare radio..Not much online about it. Dont see anything on Radio museum unless I looked wrong.

Need a schematic with a similar design with 2SC735,2SA562 and a 2SB482 as driver configuration.Also with two diodes after the driver..More likely need transistor pinouts in circuit to see what is up..

Looks like the guys at the shop where I got this from worked on it.I want to see if the 3 transistors were installed right.I may did an error the other day putting some in wrong too..

With brain fog. Been years away dealing with these non transformer amps.. I rather deal with push and pull amp circuits..

Had a chat with a friend earlier today online.He is a radio restorer for years . He does not have a copy of the Zenith manual or the Sams TSM manual.

He suggest to put an infamous LM386 chip on a small perf board small enough to fit in the case with out altering original parts and case.Its a quick cheat fix for now until some schematics or service manual shows up later on.Then fix it the right way when the manuals come in hand..
