OH Dan,  I didn't know you could do that.  What sort of place should I look
for to restore the speakers?  I thought we'd have to get new ones and I was
dreading it as I know Merrill would have a cow, they are his and are at
least 30 years old.

Hope all are having a great New Years.  We are very quiet here.  Teen son
has gone to an all night party, Dad and Merrill are asleep and I'm
listening to my favorite '50s channel on XM.  Ruth
