Hi Everyone,

First post here, here goes.

I am ready to start working on my '19, and I have probably the most basic question you can have. I need to remove the chassis from the cabinet. The problem/question has to do with the wires that connect from the chassis to the speaker.

On another radio of similar vintage, the "speaker cable" connected at the chassis via a circular plug. There is a hole in the back of my chassis with what looks like a cardboard disk,covering the hole, and the speaker wires emanate from there, but there is no connector/plug. Is this the the way the radio was originally built, or was a connector originally used?

Also, regardless of the answer to the above, it looks like I will have to remove the chassis and the speaker together. Does everyone agree with this? I don't see any way that the speaker and chassis can be disconnected. Just wonder if I'm missing something.

Thanks in advance,
Jon
