Thank you all for the advice and tips so far...now onto another issue. Can you get replacement mica wafers for the tuning condenser compensators (21A and 21B)...specifically 21B? As you can see from the photo, there’s a piece broken from the edge and it’s cracked down the middle. It isn’t broken completely in two, but definitely cracked all the way across. The smaller one for 21A isn’t cracked but does have a small chip on one of the corners. Any help or advice is much appreciated!
