Hi Ralph,
I called a little earlier and left a message on your answering machine.
Those A006 knobs are the fluted style as you mentioned. The big tuning
knob is the A006 on steroids, hi.
We were wondering if you have the little A001 style knob for the 1/4"
shaft. This is a bar type with the bar measurements of 3/4 x 3/8 x 1/2
high . These were used on the later releases of the 90801 transmitter.
Early 90801 versions used those little A006 knobs with the metal pointer.
So if you have them could you provide the availability and price on the
A001 1/4" Shaft (3/4 x 3/8 x 1/2 high) bar knobs? I assume they use the
metal pointers too.
