[R-390] Name Plate Screw Size?

[Barry]

It occurred to me that I didn't notify the list that I found a dozen #3-56 x 3/16" stainless steel pan-head screws on eBay and got those a few weeks ago so I'm good on this. Renée emailed me just this morning stating he had found his stash so I thought I should post something to the list in case anyone else was still going to look for them. 

Thanks again, 
Barry - N4BUQ 

Send me your address I will send you some … Tom, N3LLL
