50A1 (=D5TF20) ballast tube in some Zenith Trans-Oceanic radios; (KensElectronics.com doesn't have). Can't be checked with tube tester; use ohmmeter to check continuity (pin 2 to pin 7). The 50A1 compensated for varying power line voltages so Trans-Oceanic radios could operate at 90 to 125 Volts. If your 50A1 is open--install a 1K to 1.3K 10 to 25 Watt resistor in place of the ballast tube.

*TECH TIP for "All American Five" radios 1945 to 1960 using 35W4=miniature or 35Z5=octal rectifier tubes had a tap on the rectifier tube filament to power the #47 dial light. If the dial light burns out--replace it immediately to prevent the rectifier tube from burning out soon!
(octal) tubes in 1940's radios: 35Z5=rectifier, 12SA7=converter (oscillator/mixer), 12SK7=IF, 12SQ7=det/1st audio 50L6=audio output.
(miniature) tubes in 1950's radios: 35W4=rectifier, 12BE6=converter (oscillator/mixer), 12BA6=IF, 12AV6=det/ist audio, 50C5=audio output.

Soft Start-Up Improvement (extend life of 1 Volt tubes in Zenith Trans-Oceanic Radios): add (NTE 02-N101-1) 100 ohm NTC varistors in series on both sides of AC power cord.
this "Soft Start-Up" modification is also reccommended for other "Transformerless All American Five" AC/DC radios.
