[Hallicrafters] SX-88 Belt

[NA NA]

Gary, here is some information that I copied from somewhere when I had my SX-88.

"I just measured an original SX-88 bandswitch belt. It is possible the length has changed slightly over the years unless the tooth pitch was not an even number. Carefully measuring along the outside surface of the belt I get 27.5" The belt width is 1/8" (.125) and the tooth count is 112. It looks like about 4 teeth per inch."
