Fisher 500c rebuild
#36

Well, there you go. Crazy indeed. And I admit that I considered buying one of the single knobs (not the type that goes with the outer collar knob, just the single knob) for the same price but I didn't. I have a KM-60 tuner that needs a knob or two. Oh well.

Tim, do you remember posting those Fisher solid state knobs (page 1, post #7, this thread)? I suppose a cheaper (though not authentic) solution for you might be to watch for one of the earlier generation Fisher solid state receivers that has all of its knobs but is otherwise in sad shape and not working, and try to get one of those. Hey, it's better than no knobs at all. Or, try contacting some of the knob people (Mike Koste, Julie McCall, Wilbur Gilroy, etc.) and see if they carry the proper knobs and at what price.
