The PHILCO Phorum

Hi,

New here and thanks for having me. I was wondering if anyone knew of a supplier of these back board pins. I am restoring a 48-1201 and found only one pin.

Thanks,

Mike

Welcome to the Phorum! You could post a notice in "Wanted Ads" section. Might also try David Frush at parts2many@aol.com. He has a lot of different types of non-electrical parts. Also take a look at this http://www.renovatedradios.com/parts.html#trimounts . Not exactly the same as pictured but might do the job?

I don't know of a source for them but they used to be called tri clips because of the three legs they have. You may try an auto parts store or an outfit like McMaster-Carr, or one of the outfits that sell restoration bits for vintage cars.

Arran

Hey Mike
If you do run into a source for them let us (Phourm) know. The question does come up from time to time.
