[R-390] Need green gear info.

[Paul H. Anderson]

Gang,

Here's what I can find in the Instruction book for the 390:

Paragraph 83, subsection c, item 6 describes gear EEE as being a locking
gear shown in figure 59.  In figure 59, it claims to have 70 teeth.

The parts list at the end of the manual lists a locking gear this way:

O309 - Gear: spur type; steel; locking; 23/64" OD x 1/8", ID x 1/4" lg
o/a; mts on 1/8" shaft; Colins Rad part/dwg No. 506 1879 302.  "Locking
Gear" - Signal Corps stock # 2Z4878A-231.

I'd suggest trying a regular gear of that size, and using a brass tube
silver soldered on to offset the gear appropriately.

That's all I know for now...
