Not sure if any of you guys have seen this. According to the poster, it's 2.25" in diameter so smaller than a 2-B dial at 2.5" but maybe someone recognizes it here and could use it.
Thanks,

That¡¯s TR-3/early TR-4 that uses the fluted knob.?

I have a couple like that here too, if anyone needs one.? Not sure about it being for a TR-3 or early TR-4.? They had a plate like that under the fluted knob, yes,? but not sure it ever had an? arrow on it.? I have others for the R-4 that are also similar...but no arrow.j

I almost like the idea of there being one mark per revolution on the dial.? It sort of helps to count the digits.

OK - just checked?my TR-4, and it does?have an arrow!? This one is not the flat dial, but the beveled one like the B-line.? Gary's right though - no numbers on it.
It's conceivable then to me that the earlier flat dial did have the arrow as well on the transceivers.
Learn something new every day!? Trouble is I now forget way more things each day!

The arrow is with TR-3, at least. I also believe it was in early TR-4. The reason is that the 20m band goes ¡°backwards¡± from the other bands, so you can¡¯t use numbering around the skirt.?
The ¡°B¡± period TR-4 had a similar skirt to the B Line but also no numbering. The gave you a 0 index mark and just lines, otherwise.?
Interestingly, the skirt of the TR-6 has numbers but they run the reverse of the B Twins.?

I looked this morning and my TR-4 has the arrowed dial skirt.
