Setchell Carlson...588 dial, 407 cab, 420 chassis(?) Serious need of a schematic.

Reece,
I'm familiar with the in rush limiter and should have thought it myself. It was part of the Fisher 800c that I restored.

I'm getting ready to place an order for components for a pair of Eico HF-22 mono blocks. This reminds me to order a couple for those as well. The Eico's are totally stripped down. I'm trying to get the chassis' back to something that looks original...it's not going so well because they were spray painted black. At least they came with schematics, parts list and the original assembly instructions.

Pardon me while I hijack my own thread.

Going to disassemble the switch tonight and see if I need to add a new one to the list.

I still need to buy/fabricate a dial lens with a mounting flange. I found a gentleman online who sells a kit using clear mold-able plastic (thermoplastic ?). I've tried to find some locally, but it seems to be a specialty item.
Any advice on this?

After about 3 hours of polishing, the dial trim looks brand new. I originally suspected that some of the gunk on the trim was rust and corrosion, but it was more than likely aunt Betty's scrambled eggs...yummm!

Thanks

Martin

Sounds like you're on the home stretch. Waiting for final pics! As to the dial cover, some use heavy plastic from big bubble card packs that many items are sold in. Others have purchased special thin plastics. I guess you have seen the methods of making your own using templates cut out of masonite or thin plywood. Google "how to make radio dial covers" and you'll find a lot of info.
