Ron,
I used a heat gun to lessen the warp by bending the sides outwards somewhat. It's still warped, but not as bad as before. As you know, you have to be real careful with the heat gun - it doesn't take much to begin meltdown. Maybe wood would be the way to go... I'll have to do some thinking on that.

Radiodaze has glass dials for the 41-235 and 41-245, but they don't list the 41-240 which is the two band broadcast and shortwave -- the one I need. I now know to treat the glass dials with respect. Icon_smile
