  • Notes
  • Zenith Radio Corp. model L509J "Souvereign" (L 509 J) according to Beitman R-25 is part of a family with the models L509J, L509L and L509W, all using chassis 5J13. Some models with chassis 5L02, like L513C, L513F, L513V, L513W and L514C, L514P, L514W and L514G, are similar to chassis 5J13 - but have a clock. They all have a built in loop antenna. At least for chassis 5L02 there are two versions of AF amplifiers, one with an UI (105-43) with 7 pins and one without.
