Well,I just now dischovered what was making that rattling around noise
in my Pioneer Onkyo SX-690 AM/FM stereo radio that I bought at the
Goodwill store last year.Two philips head screws on each side of the
cabinet hold the cabinet to the chassis,easy as pie to rmove that
cabinet from the chassis.The metal grill on top of the cabinet has a lot
of slots.Just the perfect size for the two dimes I found that had fallen
down in there.I saw two glass fuses and it didn't look to me like the
wires inside of the fuses had blown.

Maybe someday I will hook up the two Pioneer speakers that came with the
radio and try it out.

You are reverting to childhood. Clue: don't put loose change on top
of High Voltage electronics vents.

Those two dimes were in the radio when I bought it at the Goodwill
store.I think I am going to glue a piece of cloth under the grill of the
radio.

'nother clue: when buying used junk turn it over and shake it to see
if there are loose bits of metal rattling around inside.
