This is probably an easy one for you Philco Gurus. 42-340 receiver, Someone has replaced original tone control/power switch with a toggle that operates only the power. Appears to be a 3 pole 3 position switch on the schematic. Where could I find a suitable replacement, to keep original functionality? Thanks in advance.

Hi

Actually, it's a two pole, three position switch.

This switch on eBay will work well for you:

Alternatively, a Lorlin rotary switch from Mouser will also work.
