Dan;
I'm not sure about the band switch decal on those sets as I have never had one, however what is interesting is that your Canadian RCA uses a U.S style name decal rather then the typical Canadian one with the the twin circles, with gold backgrounds, that has the RCA "Meatball" in one, and "Nipper" in the other, and "RCA Victor" in a cursive fond underneath. I suppose what you could do is get a U.S band switch decal, slice it up, and re-arrange the coloured segments, although it would be tedious to do so. Have a look through the decal section on the Radio Daze site under G.E, and C.G.E, as well as the U.S and Canadian RCA Victor pages, and see if they have what you need. By the way, I think that the front panel of your set needs more medium walnut tone spray, apparently someone involved in building the cabinet goofed and sanded through the veneer, it also looks like it was darker on the right and left sides of the control panel between the moldings and the first set of grooves.
Regards
Arran
