you will find the switch from the BC-679 ( 769 ? ) tuning units more than
adequate. for the power level
But wait... isnt that a shorting type switch which adds more capacity with
every click ?
Pretty darn sure it is.
Not as ordinary 5 pole selector switch.
So better get that part right !
----------------
BTW... if your switch is just frozen...
I have had good luck making new shafts for the switch.
Like wise... if the ceramic is broken.. but essentially all there... it can
be repaired with epoxy ( not metal filled type ) Not my first choice, but
do-able.
