Hello....

I'm in the midst of replacing the band switch, but have run into an
unexpected issue.
The amp, SN642, seems to have had a different 'middle' wafer than the new
replacement that was shipped from Ameritron.
The old one had 7 'tabs' on towards the outside of the switch; the new one
only has 6.
So, the copper straps coming from the coils no longer line up in same
position.

The old wafer appears to have been a 2 pole 6pos unit; the new one is also 2
poles and 6 pos, but wiper(s) seem to have been re-arranged.

Don't want to proceed until I have this sorted.

Have any of you been down this path before?

Thanks,
73
Dick, K5AND
Austin
