A-361 radio
#1
Sad 

I had sent out my husband's A-361 radio  for repair and have since learned that the glass tuning dial was mistakenly discarded.  If anyone knows of where I might get another one, I would be very grateful.  I can't say how disheartening this is.
Thank you,
Martha

There is a A-361 on Craigslist in Onalaska Wisconsin for 50 bucks. You could always inquire if they want to part it out. Good luck

Three possibilities that I can think of for you.
1) Put a Wanted Ad in the Phorum Wanted Ad section. Its not likely but possible that someone has one in their boxes of miscellaneous repair parts.
2) Watch Ebay for sales of A361 radios for a donor dial glass.
3) You can contact the folks at RadioDaze and talk to them about custom making a dial glass for you. https://www.radiodaze.com/contact/
That may require you to have a dial glass on loan for them to copy but I'm not sure about that. I have purchased dial glass from them but they were not custom made for me.

Other folks may have some other ideas for you. Good luck.

Thank you for the suggestions! I so appreciate the knowledge and support on the Phorum. I will try them out!
Warm regards,
Martha
