I am offering a reproduction grille cloth for the relatively rare matching speaker unit for the TMC GPR-90 Receiver.
 
This speaker is actually identified as TMC Model GPS-1 (General Purpose Speaker-1). Another version of this speaker, and even rarer, was the model GPS-2. It was identical to the GPS-1, but the speaker cabinet was actually borrowed from the GSB-1 SSB Adaptor, so the cabinet depth is deeper when compared to the more popular and less costly GPS-1.
 
At any rate, the speaker grille cloth I am offering is virtually identical to the original and now-unavailable grille cloth materal, which was discontinued decades ago. It is extremely close to the original used by TMC in terms of color, type of weave, and fabric density.
 
The grille cloth is easily replaced by removing the speaker baffle board assembly (4 nuts) from the cabinet, separating the speaker from the baffle board (4 nuts), and removing the stapled-in-place original grille cloth. The replacement cloth is positioned in place and restapled to the wood baffle board with standard 1/4-inch upholstery staples and a staple gun. The speaker is remounted and the baffle is then replaced within the cabinet.
 
I had to purchase several yards of this material at significant cost, as it was a special order fabric, and I searched for quite some time before I was able to locate it.
 
The price for one replacement pre-cut grille cloth for one GPS-1 or GPS-2 speaker is $15.00 each, plus shipping via the US Postal Service.
 
Replace that dirty, nicotine-stained, faded, or damaged grille cloth on your GPR-90 speaker, and immediately transform it's appearance with a minimum of effort.

I may reached via personal e-mail at triodes@optonline.net
