If I buy a signal generator off ePay could I possibly repair my own radio? Anyone here ever do any work on old radios? I won't pay $400 to redo an AM radio that will be useless in a few years anyway. Anyone added satellite radio to one? Should I just hack away & install a CD player & get over it?? Need some tunes,,,Brian | | |

Hate to be the one who hacks it up, this truck has never had a hole drilled anywhere. I have a couple radios for parts unless the same part always goes bad....Brian | | |
