Damn.. I looked and was over-run by Chromacolor parts, and only 2 System 3 Parts.
I would have given you the 9-160-05 if I had it

I do have a new 9-152-02 (which in 85 was the replacement sub for a 9-152)
Also.. a 9-239 which states Tunar control
If you end up needing the 9-152-02, let me know.

Unfortunately mine is soldered in at the antenna terminals and then the coax plugs in the 9-151 module which is a phono plug.Is that what your talking about?

That's way too much for me!I only paid $10 for the set and i consider it in "cosmetically challenged" condition. All i need is the value of a resistor and that would probably fix it.....

Now, why didn't i think of that?

Here is the set up on the back of my System 3. I thought they all had this set up, but I could me mistaken... On mine.. see the black wire? If you plug it into the hole, you use the screws for antenna input, if you pull it out, you can use the "normal" cable feed.

Thank you very much for your kindness!The one i'll most likely really need though would be the 9-151 module since they were busy prying off shields on it for some odd reason. If you come across one cheap, please let me know!

Mines totally different.....

Well, originally this board was a 9-160-3 but now it's a 9-160-5! R3201 is right below L3302(right below the number 28) which is a .18 ohm 3 watt resistor.Whatever R3201 was is still a mystery to me....
Sorry about the blurry pics....

well.. They used a sub, which according to my Zenith module guide IS correct. A 9-160-05 would sub for a 9-160-03, and obviously there would be mods for the sub module. Somebody has got to have a 9-160-03 laying around.. hopefully! I was sure I did and now am wondering why the hell I have so many Chromacolor 2 modules......
As I dug into my old parts stash.. the show "Horders" popped into my head. LOL!

If you don't mind?
I think i deciphered part of it.
One leg of LX3353 (width control) goes through E3521 and then through R3252?(1k 1/2 w) to ground?Maybe R3252 is R3201 on the -05 version?

I use to be into "hoarding" about 25,30 yrs. ago,but it was "all" vacuum tube stereo and tv equipment including huge boxes of tube "spares"....
