Thanks for the replies.  Hopefully, when RODB take his 38 model apart, he will be able to ID the part.   I will try to get better photos but that may be the best my old tablet can do for close ups.  If this part turns out to be part of the RF bandswitch, what is the chance of finding a replacement or is it not worth it and just put the radio in the trash---John
