Subject: [drakelist] Drake Plastic Part Deterioration


"Eugene Balinski"  made an utterence to
the drakelist gang

Listers:
 
   I just unpacked my MN-4C after a few years in storage.
 It was stored in a plastic bag (original ?) in the
original cardboard box. 

   I went to use it and I noticed that the plastic button
used to set the SWR cal was cracked along the side.  I
don't remember it being cracked when I put it away.   Later
a similar plastic knob that controls the capacitance range
also cracked. 

   Has anyone on the list seen anything like this ?  I know
that these rigs are getting old, but I have not seen
anything like this before.   Anyone know where I can get
some replacement knobs ?


73 & Merry Christmas,
