The radio needs a new dial cord. One of these days, I do believe I'll

Be very careful. Dial cords were not intended to be understood by human beings.
If you DO go ahead, draw a picture of the pulleys and the direction of the
string travel before you touch anything. The direction of the string wrap around
the shafts may be very important too.


There is a rumour out there that last person to successfully restring a radio
died in 1979.

This is one of the easy ones, but I believe you nonetheless.

Soon after I got the radio, I went over to the Library of Congress and
copied the Sams Photofact for it. It was easy to do things like that
back then; security is much tighter now. The Photofact has the cord
stringing diagram. I have some spare cord lying around too.

Thanks for writing.

Yeah,but Sandy Berger has probaly done stold all of those drawings by
now.
