[Boatanchors] Harvey Wells R-9A

Does anyone  on the list know what font is used on the Harvey Well's Twins?
I am restoring a RX and like most of the R-9 and 9A's, the bandswitch
lettering is worn off. I can make a cliché' pad and pad print the graphics
back, but need to find the proper font. I have looked through 700 fonts so
far with no luck.

Tnx,
Dale W4OP

I almost forgot--look and see if the xtal calibrator and/or NBFM modules are
in it.  Those also raise the rpice.
