Hi all,
    I'm the recipient of the mail that's directed  to "contact us" on The
Hammarlund Historian website.  As such, I often get questions like "can
you supply, or suggest a source for, XX part."  Usually the part is
something that's unique to the radio, such as knobs, dials, coils, etc,
and sometimes it's something that can be subsituted for, like an audio
xfmr.  Often, the sender is not on any of the email lists, tho' I often
suggest that they join, and post a query.  Sometimes they do.
    Here's a list of the recent "wants" for people other than me
personally:
1.  Bandspread dial for SP-200 Super Pro
2.  Knurled knob for the Xtal switch or "delta freq" for SP-600
3.  Front panel "R-274" tag for SP-600
4.  Plastic cover for extra fuses for SP-600
5.  DPDT toggle switch, original style with short handle, for MOD/CW for
SP-600
6.  Dial glass (plastic) for SP-600
7.  RF/Audio meter for SP-600
8.  contacts on the rf deck "strip" that contact the studs on the rotating
turret
    Few, of these can be substituted for, tho' some reproductions are
available commercially.

    I have several SP-600's of my own, none of which is unrestorable, but
some are missing parts, some needing some of those listed above.  If
anyone has any of these parts, I will give other requesters the
opportunity to take advantage of  first "dibs" on them.  I am interested
in purchasing SP-600's in restorable or unrestorable condition.  The
latter will be used as parts donors.
