Picked up a 38-7 yesterday and it was missing knobs on the bandswitch and volume control. The knob on the power/tone control doesn't look original either. Was going to look at Radio Daze for replacements - should they just be round knobs, or the type with a pointer on them? Being that there aren't any decals to indicate what the controls are I'm not sure that the pointer types are needed (unless was a visual indicator to the user somewhat). Also brings up a question as to why Philco didn't label controls on the face of the unit?
