DuMont RA-103 Doghouse lives . . . kinda.

[bigaudioal]

Also, the damaged gear on the back of my dial is hard mounted to the dial, with a giant hollow rivet through it (allowing the tuning shaft to pass through it). Also must be glued too because the dial cannot rotate independently of the gear rotation.

So there is no way to swap the gear onto my cracked, but opposite dial. See photo of gear mount on back.

Just when you think you found an extremely hard part to find - BOOM!!! Reality kicks in.

SO - anyone got another spare DuMont RA-103 dial that is in the same configuration as mine (bottom dial photo above)? It's the little things that drive ya NUTS!!!

Thx.
