I have the 38-690 I picked up at an auction a few years back working pretty well. The cabinet had been nicely refinished before I bought it, but that resulted in all of the markings for the controls being removed. I'd like to finish it with them IF anyone makes a set for this, admittedly rather rare, model. And, in any event, I'm curious as to what they called the "I.F. Expander" (so named on the schematic) on the front of the set.

Anybody ??
