Need to purchase Old Philco Radio Knobs
#1

Dear Colleagues,

My name is Paulo Alonso and I live in Brazil, South America. I have an Old Philco Radio Model 3810- Code 121 in the process of electronic restoration and in the need to replace tuning knobs (the tuning knob has a vernier). A photo of this radio is attached. 

Can someone suggest to me a supplier that can provide  those knobs other  than Renovated Radios ?  I placed an order with this firm in February but they do not send International Orders by Priority Mail Service. This modal is the best modal because it has a tracking number. The package they sent to me may be lost because of a lack of tracking number. I tried to contact the firm but they do not respond to any email messages. 

Any tip on this issue is welcome !!

Many thanks in advance ! 

Paulo Alonso

I answered in the other topic.

Try Gobs of Knobs, owned by Mike Koste.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
