Currently, I have 3 radios I would like to restore. Unfortunately, the speakers have field coils with cones that are non-existent or very badly damaged. I have never reconed a speaker and cannot find a service to recone vintage speakers. I have thought about using a permanent magnet modern speaker, but the field coils also operates as a choke. Any ideas or hints?
One of the 3 radios is a Philco 42-358 Code 122. Does anyone have a speaker I could get from them?
