I am looking for parts for this chassis and was wondering which other models used the same design as the 37-660.
I am trying to locate a replacement for the band select lever.
Thanks,
Bill

Bill, your best bet is to look here and compare specs. I'd imagine without looking, that many sets use the same switch. Quite a job to change out I might add with one of these "sub-chassis" sets.

EDIT: From what I can tell, your switch is unique to this set. The following part numbers are used

antenna rg(range) sw(switch)
42-1202

RF rg sw
42-1203

Oscillator rg sw
42-1204

Indexing plate & shaft
42-1186

If I'm reading this correctly, I couldn't find any other set using the same part numbers.

Thanks for your response. It looks like I may have to try and rebuild it. I have been asking around and haven't located a replacement for it.
