Ron,

Thanks for the info. That explains why all of the pictures I have seen of this set on the internet never show any mounting hardware. It also explains why the u-shaped band switch linkage is broken on so many of them, as mine is, at the first attempt to move the radio, lol!

By the way, I have not totally completed the re-cap of this radio and already I am quite impressed with the performance of this radio. This radio has one 'hot' front end. Yesterday, at 3pm while doing a bench test I was picking up AM650 WSM Nashville and AM740 CHWO Toronto here in Central Lower Michigan. Icon_biggrin Performance wise, this is by a long shot the best radio I own. Now on to finish the electrical restoration and then figure out what I am going to do with this cabinet, ugh!

Ed
