Thanks for the info. They have a spool of 32 gauge wire from AES that might do the job. I am guessing finer is better. Without seeing it it is hard to compare. May get the 28 gauge also and try to match.
Herb, my dial doesnt slip any, but it looks like it has some kind of glue or something put on to help the slipping and the shaft bracket looks like it has been bent down towards the dial. I thought originally this was shipping damage. I did discover that when I tune up, the dial hits the chassis. I'll have to address this. I need to pull the tuning cap anyway to clean and replace rubber mounts.
If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything"
