[Boatanchors] E H Scott Receiver

[RKofler at aol.com]

Without taking my SLR-12-B apart, I don't think  1/4". Probably 3/16". My 
radio has a piece of plastic rather than glass. The  parts list calls for a 
Lucite plate. Good luck. A fine radio. Not intended to be  a communications 
receiver. However it does what it was intended to do very  well.

These radios were intended to be a source of news and entertainment  for the 
crew of a ship, and do so without emitting any RF radiation for German  
U-Boats to pick up with their direction finding equipment. Consequently, the  
designers were very sparse with ventilation louvres. I run my SLR-12-B with the  
chassis slid out of the cabinet a few inches to get some air flow.
