Ron : That may work because as I recall it is only a couple teeth at the end. I will have to wait a while to check it out though. After I posted the question I fell off my roof about ten feet high and broke my shoulder .I will be ok. But will take a break from fixing things to heal . This was a radio my wife bought 25 years ago before I had any radio interest . Once I got to it and had it running I was very happy with it .It is a big thing and sounds goods .Not the best looking of the bunch but a work horse . Thanks for tip and have a good one!!!
