Philco 42-350 dial pointer
#1

Hello again -

I noticed that the 42-350 I'm working on has a missing dial pointer. I contacted the seller (who said all parts were included in the ad) and was told that he didn't have the needle pointer and didn't know it was missing.

I'm not going to go to war over it because now that I got the electrolytics and over half of the wax caps replaced (a few are REALLY buried under other parts) the radio actually sounds good and I can't detect any hum.

Does anyone know where I might find that obscure part? It is probably the type that has the needle attached to a folded piece of metal and it slides along the metal back plate of the dial glass.

I would even settle for a reproduction.

Thanks.
