    There are two mailing lists dedicated to Collins. Both have 
large archives of information and some experts available.
    One is the Collins Collector's Association at:
http://www.collinsradio.org/
the other is a Yahoo group at:
  http://groups.yahoo.com/group/collins_radios/
     I think you can find the answers at one or both of these groups.
