Hi guys and gals, it's been a while since I worked on this but now winter is here and so I am back at it. I have all the bakelites and electrolytics restuffed along with the bad resistors being replaced. Now I need to know if the Mag Tuning switch #42-1216 is available anywhere? I checked Play Things Of The Past with no luck. This switch is actually a 2 part unit. First part is for the Magnetic tuning and the second part switches the pilot lights off. It is actually this second part that is burned out. That part is piggy backed onto the first one so maybe somebody makes a SPST replacement that could be mounted in place of the burned out section. Any ideas would be most appreciated.
