[Hallicrafters] SX-88 & SX-101 Knob

[Barrie Smith]

Nick & all:

I just received & installed one of these repro dial skirts.  However, it 
just (in my best little-old-granny voice) doesn't look quite the same.

Since the SX-101 skirt is engraved, and will likely have the "aged-patena", 
it will probably match the existing knob better.

Also, if anyone has an SX-101 tuning knob with skirt, or skirt alone, I'm in 
the buying mode!

73, Barrie, W7ALW
