Okay I can answer on of the above questions I posted above. While taking out the grommets to measure for replacements, I noticed a ground wire soldered from the push button coil assembly to main chassis. Looks like the grommets are probably there to absorb shock and properly raise the height not isolate.

The bell cover screws were not fully tightened, so that may have caused the buzzing.... won't know for sure until I fire up again.

Still need to find out the appropriate antenna for this radio.... hopefully it will make a difference.

Stay tuned.....
