Thanks guys. Unfortunately, unless I missed it, the eham.net link does not give any details about a possible replacement gear other than "found at R/C hobby shops". That's like me telling someone looking for O-rings for their Philco model 16 or 44 to "look in a hardware store".

I did join a Yahoo group which specializes in the DX-302 and other Realistic SW receivers, so I hope to find some answers there.

I do appreciate the input from both of you.
