The Fisher 400 Receiver
#2

Well, I could have spent big buck$$ on authentic 400/500-B/500-C/800-B/800-C pulls from the auction site...

..but as Red Green has said so often, "I've got a better way." Icon_smile

This is a 1969-ish Fisher 175-T solid state receiver. Notice those four slide switches on the right?

I decided that since I had the junker chassis, I would utilize two of its switches in the 400. They are all DPDT, just like the 400 switches. They are the same size as the original 400 switches. Their outward appearance is the same as the original 400 switches. There was one difference, however...

...the 175 switches do not have solder lugs - they utilize push-on terminals.

A better look:

Other than the connections on the back, they are identical to the original 400 slide switches.
