[R-390] R390A AFGain Pot Repair

[Scott, Barry (Clyde B)]

Oops.  I added the comment about the Fender amp at the wrong place and
notice the first paragraph doesn't make much sense.  I found the pot at
Antique Electronic Supply.

Not sure where you can find one, but one thing to watch out for is the new
pots don't always have 3/8" threads.  Many of them are using metric threads.
It's not too much of a big deal, but they aren't very original.  I found a
replacement for an old Fender guitar amp there that I couldn't find anywhere
else.

Have you looked at Antique Electronic Supply (www.tubesandmore.com)?  They
have a lot of pots but I doubt if they are milspec.

Also, did you ask Fair Radio?

Good luck,

All: I have had a defective LOCAL AUDIO pot for some time and would very
much like to replace it.  The usual suspects (Allied, Newark, Digi-key,
Mouser, etc.) don't seem to want to stock much in the way of audio-taper
pots.  Anyone recommend a good source for this?
