The RF gain control shaft is indeed 1/4" diameter, while the CW/MCW 
switch shaft is 3/16", Wayne.  The gain control is the superlative 
Allen-Bradley molded Type J, ARC part no. 6488, while the switch is the 
same one used on other receiver control boxes, an ARC manufactured 6536.

There is some other information for the curious at
