@@raymondkuipers8669 There's a spring in there that tensions the string. I just tied the broken string a little shorter.

I thought, RCA was a true manufacturer. But it seems, it was only a sailsplatform for goods made by Asians. Radio Corporation of Armorica, lol

They did originally manufacture radios but this was probably such a cheap set it was more profitable to get a Japanese company to manufacture it as they had cheaper labor. Higher values items like TVs continued to be made by RCA until at least 1986 when they shut down their last USA Television plant.

RCA was an American manufacturer of many different kinds of electronics from the 1920s until they were bought out by GE in the 80s (existing in name only after that). Interestingly, an Asian offshoot was founded by RCA in the 1920s... the Japanese Victor Company, aka JVC. JVC, for obvious reasons, parted ways with RCA during WWII and has remained their own entity since then.
