Ron;
My inclination would have been to dismantle the switches and swap the slides from the ones out of the solid state unit into the ones from the 400 B. Actually with some patience, if you did not already have the junk tuner as a parts donor, you probably could have found either some NOS replacements or salvaged some from another piece of equipment, Hallicrafters S-38s and some other models used the same switches, although I think that they were black, as well as some test equipment from the same era.
Regards
Arran
