[Heathkit] SB-102 part needed

[Jim Shorney]

Good luck with that, they ALWAYS break. When I had my HW-101, I think I went
through three of them. That was when you could still buy replacements from
Heath. My final solution was to use a chrome "lever knob" from a dash-mount car
stereo (the knob that would operate the balance/bass/treble/etc. pots that were
concentric with the volume or tuning knob). I reamed it out to accept the metal
insert from the Heath knob. It didn't look horrible, and it never broke.

I haven't seen that HW-101 for years. The last I heard it was out east
somewhere, but I would know it if I saw it.
