This Zenith Trans-Oceanic Royal 3000-1 is a classic, highly collectible 9-band solid-state radio manufactured in the mid-1960s. Notably, the 3000-series introduced FM tuning to Zenith's famous Trans-Oceanic portable lineup. The specific "1" suffix denotes a later production revision that added a dedicated port for an external AC power adapter
Key Features & Specifications
• 9 Broadcast Bands: Includes AM, FM, and 7 shortwave bands.
• Power Supply: Runs on 9 D-cell batteries or a 12V DC power adapter (exclusive to the 3000-1). This does not come with the power adaptor so I can't check that it works.
• Chassis Design: Hand-wired point-to-point circuitry using early germanium transistors, omitting modern circuit boards.
• Antenna Setup: Features a built-in telescoping whip antenna hidden in the handle, alongside a removable top-mounted Wavemagnet antenna.
This one has the case and pull out booklet . The case has come un stitched at one end but other than that is presentable and could be stitched back on.
