I contacted West Tech Services to discuss a replacement driver, or repair the one i destroyed.
I sent them the old one, no repair possible under $200.00, no chance. But, they could build me one that matched the impedance of my radio and even have the thread to mount it in the wooden radio support for about $80.00.
Eighty dollars? Final cost was $86.00 with shipping.
I completely restored the electronics in this radio including the interstage transformers.
The radio plays and sounds great, i live in NC and am listening to the oldies station from Saint Louis, Mo. via Rte 66.
I thought i would share this with all of my friends on the Forum, we all have great satisfaction in these old radios.
Thank you,
Mitch
I've used West Tech Services myself (parts for an Edison phono). Very good company to deal with.

I am ENVIOUS. A wonderful restoration. Looks good enough for the SMITHSONIAN!!

:I just did the final finish on this radio with a matched horn speaker driver. The radio has an internal wooden horn speaker and the original driver was completely destroyed by a guy named Mitch.
