[TV MAN]

Thanks for the advice. I loosened the screw and it seemed that it helped a little. I dont know if this type speaker is pretty 'tight', or if there should be pretty free movement of the cone. It may have some crud around voice coil. This is a little different than what I have seen in the past, no spyder or cover over the voice coil. This speaker is tight. Ill know for sure when I power it up and test things. Field and output trans checks ok with the ohmmeter. I had been concerned that the ship damage might have tweaked things.

I did find the post on rust/chassis cleaning by Bob Anderson. Evapo-rust was what I was looking for. It's in the Electronic section, which may be where I should be posting this.

Thanks,

Tim
