Well, it's been five days, and I thought I should check in here and tell you folks that I have played this radio every day this week for at least a few hours at a time. Sometimes I will tune around to different stations; other days, I have just left it tuned to my SSTRAN at 660 kc. Last night, I tried tuning across the 49m SW band, and tuned in Radio Slovakia International in English. It reminded me of the good old days when I was a teenager and there were lots of SW stations from many different countries on the air. For the most part, as many of you know, those days are gone with the advent of the internet and streaming audio.
If I do leave it at 660, though, I will at least tune it above and below that frequency a couple of times during each listening session.
Not once has it acted up in any way since I pulled it out and went over it again.
So I think that it is fixed, good to go and ready to launch.
And Geoff, I don't think I ever answered your question about the acoustic adapter behind the speaker - yes, this radio does have one.
