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.

Looking for a source for Drake parts. Especially interested in a source that sells replacement meters for the Drake R4B receiver. Would appreciate your help.

I use eBay and the "save search" feature...
It may take a while but it works.
Good luck
Hank

I am a Drake collector and I believe all of the Drake 4-line and even the TR-3 and TR-4 s meters are the same

Try www.wb4hfn.com as a starting point. No one has Drake meters stocked in quantity or anything. You would have to make inquiries about single examples salvaged from radios to someone, I would expect.

Of course the TR series and the twins use different S meters. Nevermind what I said earlier. I do think the tube type r-4 the B and the C all used the same S meter
