Filename: http://www.mbzponton.org/n2awa/radio_Zenith_TO_B600_caps_bogus.txt Revised: 27-sep-2007 Created: 24-sep-2007 !! FOR REFERENCE ONLY !! THESE VALUES ARE INCORRECT !! Radio: 1959-1962 Zenith Trans-Oceanic B600 Notes: ------ 01) Schematic states, "Capacitance in mmf unless otherwise specified". 02) mmf = micro micro farads , i.e. pico farads. 03) The online .pdf schematics at www.transoceanic.nostalgiaair.org did not match what I had in my model B600 with chassis 6A40. Fortunately, the only thing lost was the time I spent making this "shopping list" of capacitors. Even though the .pdf files were labeled for the B600 with chassis 6A40, I discovered the component values were not even close to the values I had in my radio. The correct schematic for the Zenith Trans-Oceanic B600 with chassis 6A40 can be found at many public libraries under the name Sam's Photofact: Set 381, Folder 16. The librarian may charge a nominal fee to make the copies for you. ------------------------ Overall quantities used: ------------------------ 0.001 pF (?) (2) 0.0033 pF (?) (1) 0.0047 pF (?)
