TrueTone Model D-2026 series B Manual
#58

Will be awhile before I see the Sams Photofact. Seller shipped it the next day but tracking # reply shows no scan or any shipping movement. Just a statement on high volume shipping. Shipped on the 14th. Didn't think of all the folks that stayed home for the Holidays and mailed gifts to the Grandkids. Belong to another forum where one of the members is a USPS employee. Stated where he worked they had 23 loaded semi-trailers parked in the lot waiting to be unloaded and sorted. If you remember, this radio had been dropped some time in it's past. Bottom right broken, from front to back. Just broke not shattered. Took advantage of the PhotoFact delay to set the break with super glue. Then sanded with 80 grit, mixed up some resin and hardener and patched with just a single layer of fiberglass on the inside. Came out looking good and feels plenty strong. Front right bottom corner is missing, about a half inch wide vertical gap of three inches. Going to try some left over bondo filler. Have the advantage that about anything will look better than how it looks now. Wish me luck.
