Hi folks,
I have recently acquired an old AWA TV set, model D52Z.
Anyone able to identify the chassis type? I’m looking for a schematic so I can restore it.
Needless to say, I haven’t turned it on as I’m not sure of its condition, it looks complete and cosmetically is good shape. Once I have the schematic I’ll go through it prior powering it up.
Cheers
Scott

D52Z uses a DX-QX-P chassis.

I have the full service documents of which I'll forward to Kevin Chant.

I'll leave the link here once uploaded.

I watched the moon landing on one of those!
It had a bad V Lin pot which I had to fix first.
Watch out for UCC HiQual 100 caps in white plastic jackets. They are paper and need to go.
