if reproductions are available

Michael Ranaan in Sydney makes repro dials but, if he hasn't made that particular model yet, he'll need one to copy. raanan.optusnet.com.au

I just want to send a BIG THANK YOU to Ron who sent me a spare radio
which had a considerably better dial among other parts.
Its fitted and looking good!
