Forum rules
The following requirements must be followed when advertising personal antique radio / TV / audio / phono items (such as discussed in the forums here) for sale in the classifieds forum::
- Titles must START with : FS (for sale) or WTB (want to buy) or Trade or Free at the beginning of the title..
- FS posts must have an "asking" price and offers may be sent by PM. Are you parting something out? ... price each major part (not things like screws and nuts)
- There must be a location somewhere in the ad or the members profile (City & State or Zip Code are the minimum requirement).
- Ads are limited to two per day, and may not be bumped sooner than 7 days after the last post to the thread.
- No outside sales links are allowed other than to pictures of actual items being sold. No links allowed to eBay, Craigslist etc.
- This is NOT a discussion forum. If you're not buying or supplying or suggesting a relevant solution, don't post - send a Private Message. Comments on pricing will be deleted.
- First to post to an item for sale stating "I WILL TAKE IT" it is first in line. Subsequent claims will be followed in the order they are posted. Claims to "Take it" can be conditional on unknowns such as shipping costs.
- Any "PM sent" posts without posting a reason for the PM will be deleted as they are meaningless to anyone else reading the thread.
- Once a deal is made, edit the title to say so and the thread will be locked
If your thread or post disappears - read the rules again - no warnings or explanations will be given when threads or posts are deleted.

Is that your radio in the photo?If it is,I don't see anything wrong with the dial glass.Is it cracked or the letters/numbers peeling?
Anyway,Radio Daze sells a reproduction of the dial glass(dial scale).Part number DG-165.Kinda pricey at $32.95,though.
However..they are warning that they are just starting to sell this product again using a new production technique and shipments won't start until April 5th.
I have a model J-105 which uses the same knobs (and dial scale as well).I needed a couple myself.Those aren't too hard to find,in fact our forum member "Radiopup" came up with some.
I would check with her first by sending her a PM or using this e-mail:radiopup@bellsouth.net
We have a member here who makes pretty decent knob reproductions if you decide to go that route.I think his handle is "Blacksmith".I can't think of his website right at the moment,maybe someone else can provide that info.

Still on the hunt for this dial glass. I e-mailed RadioDaze requesting a pic of their repro glass, but they do not write back to me, so I am a bit leery sending them any money. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
