Andy - I found the old post. You mentioned you want the spring behind the knobs, AND the brass insert for the outer knob - do you mean the screw, whole shaft, etc?
I believe the Conecentric parts on my 38-4 HAVE to be the same as on the 38-7.
They're sending me out of town for another week starting Sunday - so communication may be slow.

Eddie; Unfortunately I sold the console about 6 weeks ago to an interested buyer and my suction cups were used on another Trans-oceanic. I still don't know what happened to our e-mails to each other.

::I finally got my Philco 38-4 Conecentric knobs loose for Andy - your offer including your leftover 2 Zenith T.O. suction cups is fine. Those eager RCMP border gaurds must have gone "ethereal" and intercepted all our e-mails - I think I only connected with you successfully once by e-mail, and I finally stopped trying. The delay was mostly from being sent out of town on work several times lately - also because I had trouble making the knob-shaft screw break free with repeated penetrating oil treatments. I am scrapping the chassis for salvage - so let me know before I mail whether you have a need for any other parts. REMIND ME - the one e-mail I got mentions shaft parts - do you need the knob-spring? The whole shaft? (I ended up taking the shaft and shaft housing completely off the radio before finally getting that knob-screw loose from the shaft, for fear of damaging the screw.)

If the tuning knobs and spring aren't needed by Andy anymore I'd be interested in knowing what you'd like for them. I have a set that can use them. Send me an email if interested. Thanks!
