I will check and report back the findings.
The back comes off quickly with 4 screws but I haven't figured out how to safely remove the antenna. I assume it unplugs somewhere, which I will figure out when I have it on the bench with more time to peer into it.

Actually few of those antennas disconnect you usually have to unsolder the two connection points.

Well that's a pain in the ass isn't it? How was the consumer supposed to replace the tubes? I have to say that it is hands down the best AM receiver in the house. I guess back then the engineers ruled. :)
The back will remove far enough to take the tubes out. However it will hang there and eventually break loose if you are not real careful. Ive resoldered quite a few. You should hear a nice console radio with ten or more tubes. They can be great. A Zenith with two audio tubes in push pull and a twelve inch speaker can really be something.
