Looking for a panel, although a discontinued product, I suggest contacting SERVICE@TENTEC.COM to inquire if one might just be available.

I would consider making one from a blank panel.    Access to a machine shop with a milling machine would be of great assistance in creating a new panel however most work can be done with a drill press.    The original 238 can be used as a template.   The 238C is a satin black finish as I recall and has a different PWR/SWR meter and placement.

I'm going to put a REAL turns counter on my TT 238 tuner.  I love the tuner, 
but despise the way it is set up with the string run dial!  I know the last 
version the made had a real turns counter, and can't imagine their having a 
different chassis.
I'm looking for an old 239 front panel, so I don't have to do some cutting on 
my 238 panel.  I have an ancient turns counter from the guy that sold them for 
years in QST, and it will work, except I'll have to cut a notch in the ridge 
that holds the plexiglass.  Wish me luck!
