Subject: [Tigers] Motorola radio restoration


Hey, guys:

I'm now deep into the electrical restoration of my Tiger, as in installing a
complete harness from British Wiring.  I've got all the wiring out of the
car at this point and am taking care of a few other items that need
attention under the dash before it all goes back in, and one of those items
is my radio.  I have a LAT-72 Motorola radio kit in my car that has never
worked.  The reason it has never worked (and I found out the hard way...) is
because the radio itself is a positive ground unit out of an earlier Alpine.
Unfortunately, when you hook up a positive ground radio in your Tiger
without realizing it's a positive ground unit, all you get after a few
seconds of music is "sizzle sizzle," and then nothing.  I've been told by
folks before that the ground orientation on a radio can easily be switched,
so here's my question...do any of you guys know where I might be able to
send this radio to have that done and then have it repaired?  I'm not
looking for a high-quality audio experie  nce here; I just want it to work
and play over the single speaker provided with the LAT-72 kit.  Can anyone
point me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Andy Walker
Edmond, OK
