This might be the case in the GE radio as the core former is not an 
integral part of the coil (I believe they are a paper or fiber material 
that is glued to the coil).

In the case of the Motorola Micor, this situation is not likely to 
happen because the former is molded from plastic and the coil is an 
integral part of the former.  Also, the core is tightly fit into the 
plastic and the core itself won't move even when subjected to vibration, 
being mounted in the trunk of a vehicle.
