The FM tuning mechanism on my under restoration Saba doesn't rotate the metal pulley when turning the knob AND it would seem that there must be a rotation reduction mechanism given the small tuning range on the dial plate.
Anyone familiar with this problem please comment. Ånd thank you!

Greetings from Minnetonka, Minnesota USA. I would appreciate a tube layout for this model. My radio found me with no back panel and I would like to confirm that I have the tubes properly placed.
Thank you!

Hello,
One of my woofers (the one with the tweeter co-axially mounted) has stopped working. It sounded as if it were rubbing, but now is not working at all. It may be shorting in the gap.
I had not played the radio for a long time, and this just started happening spontaneously. The speakers were not abused by playing very loud.
Is there a way of removing the magnet and re-centering it? Or, if necessary, of repairing the voice coil?
Thank you very much.
Regards,
Mark
