[Boatanchors] captive nuts that snap in rear of Hammarlund chassis

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

I'm not sure what style were used by Hammarlund. I bought some of the type 
with a square nut and a springy saddle around it that fits into a square hole 
from McMaster.  The ones I bought were certainly larger than what you're looking 
for but if that's the style you need, they may have smaller ones.
