If you can't find a replacement bracket it should be easy to fabricate one.
It's just a strip of sheet metal with two small holes near each end,
corresponding to the screw holes on the front panel, with a larger hole in
the middle to accommodate a quarter-inch shaft bushing. I forget whether the
two screw holes in the panel are tapped for a machine screw, or if a nut in
used behind the holes in the front panel.
The receiver will tune much more nicely if you can find a replacement 4:1
vernier mechanism and spinner knob.
