The chasis and speaker from the other one is the same, I can use either speaker, they both work. I bought another 47-1230 a long time ago to use for parts in this radio if needed, it is exactly the same as the one i am rebuilding. I was lucky to find the same one, the circuit is the same, uses the same speaker, same phonograph, wired the same... the only difference I have seen is they used some bakelite blocks to house a couple capacitors that mine just used caps connected to lugs. The transformer is the same so if the ohm's difference isnt an issue than i should be all set. Thanks.... any idea's about getting rid of the hum when tuning in stations? is that usually a cap, or coil or....? I also still dont seem to be able to pull in all the stations I should be able to.
