Mine has had a few problems, the most annoying of was due to the damn
crimped interconnects. I finally soldered them on and put deoxit on all
the plugs and it permanently cured it. I had a couple of bad solder
joints over the years, on the PS and one of the ribbon cable plugs.

The NVA-515 is a pretty worthless speaker, IMO, I got it just to have
the "set". I have a second one I bought at a hamfest, it's had the
actual speaker replaced with a really nice sounding speaker that sounds
very good, especially running off the line out, through a small car amp.

I hope I don't have to get too desperate money wise, and have to sell
one or more of my toys..


BDK.

I don't even like the sound of that. if it ever gets that bad,
the vultures, like radio-mart, will offer pennies on a dollar.
hope it doesn't come to that. and, if you ever want to part with
your 515, keep me in mind, and i'll make you a reasonable offer.
i just hope it never comes to this. i have "too many radios", but
i can't help myself. my city home looks like a radio museum. i
guess radio is my art.
