[Milsurplus] [ARC5] T-17 Mic Part Needed

[hwhall@aol.com]

I had one of those switch insulation parts crack, too. Made a new one out of Delrin & it's still going. I did have to get a little help with making the flat-bottomed screw holes, because I don't have the bits for that. But NOS switch assemblies have shown up on Ebay.

Hello

During my re-enactment event this weekend, I lost AM on the SCR-274N early Sunday afternoon.

I did a quick test on-site and I was getting no PTT from the mic.  The the radio worked fine on CW.

I came home and disassembled the mic and found a cracked part associated with the pushbutton, which I had epoxied some time ago.



When the PTT button is depressed, the relay rotates in the case and the PTT contacts don't quite connect:



Might any of you have the replacement part, or perhaps an empty T-17 case they'd care to sell?
