New 46-1203 Owner
#5

You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar!

As for everyone else, thank you so much for all of the tips so far. I spent today reading over Phil's AntiqueRadio article and doing as much of the cleaning items that I could. Two questions: 1) The power cable was in terrible shape, so it ended up in the trash. From what I have read, I need to replace it with another 2 prong instead of a 3 prong to prevent buzzing correct? and 2) Does anyone have the specs on the speaker? Mine had a pretty gnarly gash in it and I was able to find the product number on the schematic, but it was a dead-end as to where I could buy another. (In terms of what the specs are.)
