Forum rules


The following requirements must be followed when advertising personal antique radio / TV / audio / phono items (such as discussed in the forums here) for sale in the classifieds forum::

  • Titles must START with : FS (for sale) or WTB (want to buy) or Trade or Free at the beginning of the title..
  • FS posts must have an "asking" price and offers may be sent by PM. Are you parting something out? ... price each major part (not things like screws and nuts)
  • There must be a location somewhere in the ad or the members profile (City & State or Zip Code are the minimum requirement).
  • Ads are limited to two per day, and may not be bumped sooner than 7 days after the last post to the thread.
  • No outside sales links are allowed other than to pictures of actual items being sold. No links allowed to eBay, Craigslist etc.
  • This is NOT a discussion forum. If you're not buying or supplying or suggesting a relevant solution, don't post - send a Private Message. Comments on pricing will be deleted.
  • First to post to an item for sale stating "I WILL TAKE IT" it is first in line. Subsequent claims will be followed in the order they are posted. Claims to "Take it" can be conditional on unknowns such as shipping costs.
  • Any "PM sent" posts without posting a reason for the PM will be deleted as they are meaningless to anyone else reading the thread.
  • Once a deal is made, edit the title to say so and the thread will be locked

If your thread or post disappears - read the rules again - no warnings or explanations will be given when threads or posts are deleted.

This unit works and is in original condition though a bit dusty. I can send you a link to a Youtube video of it playing if desired. The Rotor Wavemagnet label is in perfect shape. Great shape except for a hairline crack in the glass. Asking $300.

The radio is my inlaws and they live in Tennessee and I am here visiting them this weekend. My wife's brother-in-law was struck down by Hunnington disease and they are having to sell his valuables. If you have any questions you can call me at 229-359-8282 today (Sunday) while I am here and have the radio in front of me. If you want more pics, let me know.
Thanks, Danny

Hi Danny, and welcome to the forum.

I have to ask, what is the other console in the picture, and is it for sale also?

Thanks!

It is not for sale at this time. I plan to restore the wood cabinet and put it in my living room. I believe is a Zenith 6-s-254. They came with shortwave, right? Danny

The 6-S-254 actually has three bands. The regular AM broadcast band and two shortwave bands. One is probably the old police/emergency band which is almost completely vacant these days. It was a very popular band for home listening at the time these sets were built. Kind of like having a home scanner now.

Here is the schematic and a bit of info on your set.
