Hello:
I am restoring this Zenith 5R312. I got it working, but i can only get 1 local station and the signal from my SSTRAN comes in very good. While contemplating getting a set of new tubes, I noticed that it has a 6K8 as the 1st det, while the schematics says it should be a 6A8G. Is this tube
interchangable? It is not listed as a subsitution in Nostalga Air web site.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Many thanks,
Buzz Icon_biggrin
