[Boatanchors] Thanks for All the Offers of Parts Help

[Whitebear1122]

Thank you to all who responded to my request for the Allen Bradley potentiometer, bushings and headphone jack for my HBR project.  I received quite a few offers of help and apologize if I lost track of some of the correspondence.   I appreciate your offers of parts.  I have the US made AB pot, bushing and jack.  Thank you!  73, Scott WA9WFA

I am seeking Allen-Bradley for two reasons, one is that I am trying to build my HBR with American made parts, and the other reason is that I used to work at Allen Bradley so I'm having fun putting all AB pots on the front panel.

So far the cabinet, both chassis's, knobs, IF's, tube sockets and shields, transformer, chokes, tubes, meter ( a nice looking DX-100 meter), variable capacitors, are American made.   I doubt if the new carbon comp resistors and silver mica and disc caps are American.
