I'm sure you already know this, but if you try to clean off the original Philco dial scales, it's good bye markings! The ones sold by Mark Oppat were made by Clinton Blais, and were as close to perfect as was possible. I don't think that Oppat is having any more scales made, but possibly he is. I think he just bought Clint's stock to turn a profit on it.
