I'm currently doing a Hippo right now and accidentally poked a hole in the speaker. Would it be better to recone or replace the speaker? Also I was wondering if anybody has ever made re-cap kit/list for specific radios. Since this is my first restoration, should I be replacing the wiring and resistors too?
