Wanted: KLH On/Off switch

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to refurbish a KLH Model Eight radio and I need a new on/off switch. It is a rotary, 2-position switch. Has a 1/4" diam shaft. Off is at about 11 o'clock and On is at about 1 o'clock. Can anybody help with this? Thanks.

Hi Kent;

I know that a local retail store here in Vancouver carries a very large assortment of volume, treble, balance, bass controls and some rotary switches.

Lee's Electronics on Main Street in Vancouver BC Canada.

I haven't bought any of late but they even had, Alps, for just one quality brand.

Some may be Chinese or Taiwanese now.

They also carry the Chinese, built like a tank, AR compatible pots in various wattages and ohms ratings.

Radio Shack is gone from Canada and so is the Alps dual 100k centertapped volume control that would have possibly been a nice PAT-4 replacement, about $5.00.

thanks Vern. Too bad Vancouver is such a trek from New Jersey :(

They don't have a website, but they do have an address and phone, so if I get desperate I'll give 'em a buzz. Meanwhile John (the birthday boy) O'Hanlon found one in a shop in Arizona :blink: and also a very cheap one online:

So we'll see..........
