[Heathkit] SB-200/SB-201 Parts Needed

[Tom Chesek]

Hi Jim,

I had a broken wafer "C" on my SB-201 and I bought a 2 wafer switch on eBay
a while back from a seller in the Ukraine with the intention of using it for
this repair. I never got to put it to use because I came across a complete
SB-200 bandswitch assembly which I'm in the process now of installing in my
SB-201.

Here are the rubs and therefore why I'm posting to the whole reflector for
other's input...this wafer is slightly larger than the original. I have
mounted it and it will just fit but with close proximity to the coils. It
also does NOT have the shorting contacts on the rear of the wafer. The rear
wafer contacts appear to short out all of the coils not in use. I don't know
how much or if any impact this would be on operation. If others think that
this is workable and if you don't find an exact replacement I will be happy
to send you one of my 2 wafers. (I'm keeping one just in case)

73,
Tom K3TVC

Hello,
I am looking for the rear Wafer 'C' that is located at the rear of the
tank coil band switch.  I found out that the rear Wafer was
cracked when I took it out to install a tank coil band switch ass'y.  This
is
for a Heathkit SB-200.
Let me know if this part is available.
