I have an old radio I have been packing around for 20 years it needs a dial glass, there is nothing remaining of the original. the radio is a tall wooden box looks pretty nice and has a brass looking tag in the middle just under where the controls and glass would be it says " co-op" it seems to have the shortwave bands , has one of the controls changes a wheel that shows where the dial glass should be and you can choose pb and 1-5 with 1 being the AM band there are a number of buttons under the glass and each button is labled with call letters of stations. If I could even find a picture of the glass I could get one made, but I dont even know where to start , any info would be appreciated

Co-Op radios were made by various manufacturers. RPC (Radio Products Corp) was a common one. They also made radios for many other brands.

If you can supply a photo of the radio it might help because somebody may have the same radio wearing a different name badge.

Could you post the picture in the forum gallery? This link requires me to sign up for Yahoo, which I ain't doin, in order to view your pictures. I have some assorted glass dials so I might be able to come up with something you could use.

I think you have to go to the page where the picture is and then link, or use the reference url they give.
