Looks like it originally had some fabric across the speakers, but what's all the stuff under the tuner dial besides the sliders? Anyone got one? Rate it or hate it?

Looks like an odd little curiosity but anything called a Power Blaster can't be all bad.

looks like its in tough shape....round replacements for square drivers....I'm betting all kinds of air gaps and bad sound because of it. Maybe they sealed the gaps?

Marvellous! Thanks very much TPR, I knew you'd come through with the goods! She's not a bad radio at all really.

Kittmaster: I don't think it'd be too hard to fix it up, apparently it's all functioning. Cosmetic stuff is much more my forte at fixing with blasters than the internal doohickery... as proven by the 4 nights it's taken me to successfully repair the capstan tire in my GF-9494X.

Thanks a lot for the help brothers, I won't be adding her to my tiny collection though.

It has round drivers with a piece of square foam in front. Similar to our 99W's. Nod Yes
