37 116 Standard chassis tuner
#1

Is the tuning mechanism the same as the standard version on the deluxe chassis? If not, does anyone know what radios used the same mechanism as the standard so I can swap it out?

I have two deluxe chassis and one very nice standard cabinet. I am trying to make one radio from the parts I have.

I never saw the version with Shadow without Teledial, but I cannot imagine them to be the same as 90% of the Teledial mechanism is there to serve its function, including the mute switch etc. I would think the version without the Teledial should only have the vernier (turn gear) and coupling, there is simply no need for anything else.

Sounds like you need a 37-670 junker; the dial scale is the same as a 37-116 Standard, and I *think* the mechanism is also the same.

Thanks. My other option is to cut the cabinet hole to fit the deluxe.

Ill have both cabinets side by side in a few weeks so I will see if that works. All depends on where the standard hole lines up with the deluxe hole which is larger.

NOOOO!!!!!

I might have the mechanism you need...if you are not in a hurry. I have three 37-670 chassis, and I hope to use all three to make one good, working chassis. So I won't need one of the dial assemblies. But I am extremely busy on a house project at present, and I have next to zero spare time. What little spare time I have, I spend on here. Icon_smile

You can get half-round moulding in various diameters at any home improvement store. That way the flat edge is uniform. ...GarySP — 12:03 AM
