[Milsurplus] Parts for SP600

[Charlie L.]

Have a good friend that lost everything radio related in a house fire
several years ago, and has been slowly repairing what was not totally
destroyed.  He has an SP600 that had all the knobs screwed up by the heat,
did not melt, just not right.  After a cleanup, the radio works just fine.
He needs things like knobs, dials, an S meter, and dial window glass to
complete the front panel.  He is almost done with his T368, the PS was
under 2 feet of water,  did a lot of work on his Drake gear and Collins
gear, some just had to be junked.  In his case, it was not the fire that
destroyed everything, it was the heat and the water from the fire houses.
His ham shack was in his walkout basement, and the two stories above it
ended up in his ham shack.  The burning house with all the things in it
alight, turns the water into a chemical slurry that eats into everything it
touches. Using steam or hot water to clean up radio gear barely touches
what it does to panels, chassis, and things encased in aluminum like IF
cans.

If anybody has a line on a cosmetically good junker, or a set of knobs, let
me know on this list, or contact Carl, w4rcw at bellsouth.net

Thanks from, Charlie W4MEC
