Crap! (*3)

I glued the cone of the speaker, put on the transformer, wired all up....works like a charm, and that nasty scratchy sound disappeared, and the shortwave now is way better....well, nothing's hundred percent - the transformer is, as I wrote before, larger than the one used in this configuration and it is a couple of millimeters higher than what can fit in the cabinet.

I flattened the lugs that the wires are soldered to....it scratches the top.

So, I have to now go back, remove the rivets (good ones, will be hard to remove) and sit it somehow (not sure - how?) about 2mm (80 mils) - that would barely pass it.

Oh, well....I was already tasting the assembled radio on the table....
