We finished the radio.
I (this is the son now) learned how to desolder and solder things from circutboards well enough so that I desoldered the knobs from the cirutboard of the computer speakers and attached them with velcro to the old radio. I also attached the speakers with velcro so that if there ever any problems the parts come out easily.
The tuning dial is the volume knob, the lower right knob is power, and the lower left knob is tone.
Thanks for all the help you have given.
