[Heathkit] SB-200 cabinet

[W8BVH]

Glenn:
I think that you will find that the motor in your Heathkit is the same one 
used in the telecron ?? clocks. If you find any I would take 6 of them. I 
tried w/ mfg.'s and found some motors but the shafts were different or the 
speed was wrong or the wrong direction. I thought about buying one and see 
if I could cabage the gear off of my non working clock and make it fit the 
clock mechanism. Didn't have time for that at the time. Here is a pic of the 
motor in one of these clocks. They were table model clocks, some w/ timers 
built in them.
Best regards,
Ralph Howes
