Uniden Grant LT, Philippines. Is it good radio or..?

Thank you. I thought about it, but I was not sure whether I will lose something quality wise and I do not have decent 4 pin mic.

 

So, I stopped at CB shop to check the condition of Uniden Grant LT I have and tech told me internal speaker needs to be changed($10) or I can use external one.

The question is should I spend money fixing this radio and buying mic and mounting bracket or just sell it AS IS and look for another CB? What would be your choice? I understand this radio may be better, than "average Cobra 29" or similar, but is it worth it? Any ideas how much it could bring realistically by chance?
I have opened it hoping to see hanging wire next to speaker, but everything looks good.

I plan to use it in my car, so somewhat biggish radio and external speaker seems to be a little bit too much, although I would not have to worry about where to put the radio itself...

Thank you for all of your advises.

 

May I ask why? Is quality of reception/transmission better, is distance larger(if so, what's the average difference?), will it live longer(hopefully)?

 

Ok, let me rephrase my question, why do YOU need it, why is it better, than Cobra, for example? I am in between replacing speaker and SWR meter light or just selling it... Tech at CB shop I can use it with external speaker as well.

 

Thank you for your replies.

I was not lucky enough to see disconnected wire from the speaker, everything looks good inside, so if I would decide to keep this radio I would need either fix internal speaker or use external one. Also SWR meter's light is out, that's another 50 cents or buck in parts.

I am kind of in between, but if you guys saying it is worth to keep it, I might do that. I would like to avoid any work on it, unless necessary just out of mentioned here possible "adjustments", which are not necessary or harmful.

I use old style magnet mount Archer 21-960 with RG 63(or 53?) cable.

 

I bought mentioned antenna as NOS(New old stock), meaning it is old, but it was in manufacturer's sealed package, i.e. it was sitting for a while after it was made.
I was considering Sirio 5000, but all things considered decided to go slow, I was not sure whether I would like extra piece of equipment in my car. It seems, like it is ok to have it.

Thank you.
