I just purchased one from Dave Doughty and it works, but will get a restoration. I plan on replacing all the resistors the three tubular capacitors and the five electrolytic caps. After that I will test the tubes and do an alignment.
Pics to come soon.

Sometimes doesn't want to receive the upper end of the FM band, but from previous experience with another FM tuner it could be grid leakage in the oscillator tube.
Also the dial is way off on the upper end of the FM dial. Could just be a tube. I'll test them today and see.
This tuner seems so good at receiving that I am tempted to use it with my Ampex model 520 MPX decoder in my main stereo system. Of course I could always use the tuner both in my main system and on the Zenith console I got it for if so desired.
