I just finished the electrical restoration and used the 4.7 mf caps in the tweeter wiring. The radio plays very well. The only problem left is to get an original style grill cloth and one of the tweeters is blown. I did try to recone it, but I need to try again, the voice coild doesn't move in/out welll and doesnt sound so good as the other tweeter.

Do you know where I can get an original style grill cloth for this model?

Thanks,

Steve
