Yes I do!! Icon_lol About 20 years ago, and feeling ornery, I called that 800 number GE had for help with your GE product.

Hello GE what can I help you with today.
me: I need a volume knob for my GE TV

What is the model number?
me:806

What is the rest of the model number?
me: thats it just 806.

there has to be more.
me: I guess in 1946 thats all they needed. Icon_lol

no i didn't get the knob. Icon_sad
