This is a photo of a 41-245T. The 41-246T is identical in appearance, only the two SW bands are different:

This style of escutcheon, being made of Tenite, is prone to shrinkage/warpage.

There is a Canadian version of the 41-245, in Canada it is model 34.

I think some of those had wooden escutcheons? I remember seeing one on eBay that had a wooden escutcheon. Now that would be just the thing to finish off my 41-246 (besides a loop antenna, of course).

Maybe I can persuade Steve, or Kirk, to make one out of wood for me once I get back to work. Actually, I need two; one for the 41-246 and one for my Tropic 42-720T.
