The grill cloth is square, 4 or 5". Probably no separate tweeter and
for some reason I think it's probably not coaxial.

Hmmm. Maybe. Either way I should open it up and look.

I'd have to find a place to sell that stuff, but maybe I coudl get some
of my purchase price back. Radio probably made in China. Opium or
something related.

Good idea. i should have thought of that.

Writing my previous post, bluetooth output occurred to me. Going to try
that now.
Well, the Grace had already found and would pair with/connect to my
computer which is more than 40 feet away, farther than I thought normal
bluetooth range was, but it won't find the Sangean radio which is one
foot above it. The Sangean Bluetooth is still working because it paired
with Alexa as soon as I put the radio on Bluetooth. In fact, I
unplugged Alexa to keep it/her from interfering.
So I'm fairly sure I can get this to work, but I need some time to think
about it.
