About Antique Zenith Radios

Founded in 1919 as the Chicago Radio Laboratory, the Zenith Radio Corporation in 1926 pioneered the first radio receivers to run on AC power as opposed to battery power. The name Zenith came from the call letters of a radio station run by the company, “9ZN.” After WW2, Zenith moved into manufacturing televisions.
