Good work 
The RT1 is an old set, using relatively basic transistors, and like all sets with that transistor line-up, the "fringe" performance was never fantastic. Sets using (working!) AF117s were always much more lively. When the R200 moved over to them, the change was quite dramatic. These later R200s were still a fair way behind a Mini-Herald though.
I've only had partial success supergluing ferrite rods back together. I think you might get away with it with a more recent set, but absolutely everything needs to be 100% spot on with these older beasts.
