I have none in that configuration. If you end up lucking out you can order one from Jaycar. If this will fit in the Kriesler then it may be a better way to go as these modern switches are dust resistant.

Just did some testing on the radio it turns out the switch doesn't seem to be the problem. When I put the radio in shortwave all I get is static across the whole variable capacitor but when I put the radio into broadcast I can find the BBC.

When I tap across the coil and the switch 2CH cuts over BBC. Also I cant get a reading across the coil where as on my other beehives I can any thoughts?
