This is a great group that runs the museum and if you email someone will
respond and then you can send pix of the other knobs and we may have
something for you. Be sure to look around the page. Visit your nearest
radio museum and be amazed at the quality stuff they have. I got to play a
Theremin at the Pavak museum on the north side of the Twin City’s . Anyway,
I hope you find the part or at least get some leads where to look.
