Bob, if you are speaking of the clamp on the knob extension that must be 
separated prior to removing the IF deck, it is the same size wrench that 
fits all the front panel knobs. Since this is a clamp which has probably 
seen a lot of use, it may have been replaced with another type screw. Look 
close, it may be a regular Allen head screw. I have seen these Bristol head 
fittings swapped with other styles on both knobs and clamps. I usually look 
close with a strong light before I choose a tool on an unfamiliar screw.

Good Luck & Happy New Year.

He was 100% correct, there were two allen wrench screws on the two clamps 
for the BFO and bandwidth.
