8C01 is a chassis number. I'd refer you to Nostalgia Air but that site doesn't necessarily recognize chassis numbers. The actual model number might find it. Something like a T825 perhaps?

NA only covers the Rider's manuals up to the very early 50s and its sketchy in the last few years. If yours is later than that then look for a site with Beitmans diagrams, I think Dave Schmarder now has them all linked on his site.

Here are a few pointers to Zenith radios with the 8C01 chassis; the first site claims to have a schematic, but accessible to members only:

Doggone Zenith...they repeated that chassis number. There's one in the 1947 Beitmans and another in 1960. I'd guess that yours is the former?

If you come up dry drop me an email and I can send you a copy.

I found the model number with the help of another guy who is more familiar with Zeniths than I am. He then crossed it to the chassis. As to year, it's pre 1948 is all it states. And NA had the schematic with changes and a few service notes. Time to warm up the old Senior Voltohmyst. This set howls and growls and I've already replaced two tubes and two leaky caps. One physically leaked wax all over my bench. Probably end up replacing them all before I'm done. If this wasn't a job for a friend, I don't suppose that it would be hardly worth the time. Thanks to everyone for all the help. Lenny Stein.
