Not sure if it works but it’s in good condition except for the Crack on the plastic face. The product is a vintage 1958 Zenith Trans Oceanic Wave Magnet, specifically the Model A600 with chassis 6A40. This collectible item was manufactured in the United States by Zenith, known for its quality audio equipment. The Zenith A600 is a classic piece of vintage electronics that would appeal to audio enthusiasts and collectors interested in retro radios from the mid-20th century.

Zenith, Trans Oceanic, Wave Magnet, Model, A600, Shortwave Radio, Vintage This is a Zenith A600 Transoceanic. It is for parts or repair. It powers on. I played an am station for about a 1/2 hour. It faded out and came back maybe four times during that period. It finally faded out and didn’t come back. Now it only plays for about 30 seconds before fading out. Then it has to be turned off and back on again. The dial does not work. The light does not work. I could not get any shortwave stations. The antenna has a bend on the top piece. A few of the sections are loose and fall down. The cord has been kind of just pushed into the box. So the recoil must not work properly. The latch on the cover is missing. It is a little rusty on the inside. See photos for any defects.
