Default This radio?

Any input as the quality of the following radio: Cobra 25LTD Classic
manufactured 10/90 in the Philippines by Dynascan Corp. of Chicago Ill.?
Can it be tweaked power wise or otherwise?

Thanks...

if you change the final to a C1969 and tune it up it will scream. BUT keep
it cut back some or the final won't last long

Excuse my ignorance, but I don't know what a 'final' and a 'C1969' are?

Find yourself a radio butcher at the truck stop. He'll squeeze every last
ounce of harmonic energy out of the radio and it will swing real good on
his special Dozy Test Set.

I have a 25 on my shelf collecting dust. Looks like half an inch and growing...

I prefer the longevity of a stock radio driving a two device amp on low.

The Final is short for the Final amplifier output transistor, and the C1969
is the Transistor part number. But to totally correct it's a 2SC1969
Transistor.

Stereo is a continuous W.I.P.

There are two parts to wisdom:
1) Having a lot to say, and
2) Not saying it.
