Jeff,
I posted to you on your FB post regarding the speaker rattling. On my 37-116X the green colored adhesive that secures the cone to the speaker basket was flaking off. I used rubber cement to resecure the cone to the basket. Truth be known, there is probably a better way to do this. I sort of looked at the rubber cement as a somewhat temporary fix, as it can be removed. I have two complete radios, and this speaker is from the donner rig, but would like to ask this group what a good permanent repair would be. I would assume an acid free adhesive, but have not yet found one that is good with both paper and steel. Maybe the rubber cement is a good solution, but am open to suggestions.
