Telefunken T6445GWK restoration
#62

I have assembled the radio back.
It is not the most convenient radio to put back together. Maneuvering the chassis in the case took some time, the speaker presenting the obstacle. Reminded me of putting back together the VOM record player changer mechanism.

After it played, I heard a little distortion which reminded me of the performance of a speaker with some cone damage.

I have never looked at the speaker, to be honest. It is still wrapped in its original cheesecloth. Not awful, but my speaker that I used as the temporary load, while not able to connect the original one, played very nicely and with no distortion.

I will leave it be for now; when I come back from vacation, I might adress it, but that is a minor thing.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
