It sings again!

After putting up with the repaired speaker that tended to muddle the sound and distort at medium-high volumes, I decided to take a closer look

The speaker was slowly disintegrating - small cracks were developing, and the most careful light touch caused the cone to split.

So I had the speaker reconed.

It's now a whole different radio. Plays loud, tight, and clear at all volumes.

I probably put more money I to this than I should, but it would have been a pity to leave it in such poor condition.
