Sherwood S-7900A
#4

The next day...

[Image: http://www.philcoradio.com/images/phorum/S7900A_008.jpg]

Everything looked OK. Both switches "clicked" through their positions as they should.

So I reinstalled them.

I soon noticed that the metal that the mode switch was bolted to was also damaged (bent) - the mode switch was not lined up properly in relation to the function switch.

Removing the mode switch again, a few well-placed blows with a hammer and long flat-blade screwdriver removed enough of the warp in the metal that the mode switch lined up properly afterward.
