Just Picked Up 38-116 -Questions
#11

The "glass" is plastic and I really don't know how to remove it. The black surround on it appears to have been made in two pieces, a front (showing) and a back and they possibly snap together holding the surround in place on the brass bezel (can't spell the proper word). I would guess that the window is held between the two pieces. If the front and back of the surround can be separated and removed it may be possible to take the window out and have a new one made. There is a vendor that will make these if supplied with a pattern.
Chuck, the link to the station markers seems to reflect the markers used on other radios. The styling does not represent that of the speed dial radio's original lettering. Am I wrong?
