Hey,
Are these the correct knobs for this radio ? If so, all are pieces there ? If incorrect, what do I need for this radio ?
The top chrome one has groved edges and has a larger inner hole than the other, does not seem to fit.
Thanks,
Bret

Here is a pic of Diane`s radio. The chrome bezels look to be the same as mine but my power side one has the larger hole and does not fit tight. Also, what exactly are the groved edges for ?

Besides the nuts ..it appears all there..those are the plain radio dial knobs..the deluxe have the stainless insret in the center of the dial.

The chrome one with the smaller hole ("D-SHAPED") goes on the left (volume side) and the larger 'round' holed one goes on the right. The left one adjusts "TONE" and the right one just makes it look symetrical (however you spell it...it makes it match the opposite side).

The chrome jobs- one should be smooth on the edge for the right side. the other one should have serations on the edge - like a quarter - to adjust the tone on the left side.

I have deluxe radio knobs - w/stainless inserts - if you are interested.

Thanks - Bob
