Dave, if it has a power plug on it, it doesn't need a vibrator, nor does it have one. Radios that needed one of those ran off basically car batteries. You need to send us some pictures of the radio and more specifically of the chassis. Schematics are available from Chuck on his forum here. If you can read a road map, you can learn to read them. You will need to learn how to solder (easy) and be willing to learn some new stuff. Most of us started like you. It's a blast.
