hi : I have a 42-400 big console that I rebuilt long ago and still works . However a couple of teeth are missing on the inside gears of the volume control wheel. I thought about buying a replacement .But was wondering if anyone has a solution I can use to fix the original ? With just a couple teeth gone the volume pot slip and gets out of sync with the wheel . Right now I set it in one spot and live with it .
Thanks for any suggestions!

Bill

Just to make sure, you chose either 4 ohm into 5K or into 10K? (blk-org or blk-grn)morzh — 06:23 PM

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately the radio was removed before bidding was over so I didn't get a chance to bid.dconant — 04:10 PM
