[Hammarlund] HQ-180 Main Tuning Knob Needed

Sun, 2 Jun 2002 19:55:19 -0500

Does anyone (Billy?) by chance have a spare HQ-180 send/receive/calibrate
switch?

I have a very nice HQ-180 but the detent in this switch is very 'soft'. I
examined another HQ-180 I have and I suspect the little tab on the switch
that 'swipes' the detents (and thus 'clicks' into place) is either bent open
and/or lost its temper. Looking at it I'm not sure it can be repaired
without disassembling the whole switch, something I'd rather not attempt
just yet... at least until I discover finding a replacement is impossible.

Thanks,
Mike - AD5IU
