Just another suggestion: If the dial on your receiver is too far
gone to use as a basis for printing a new one perhaps someone on this
list can supply a suitable photo. Bill has referred you to the list
database, maybe one there. There are people who can generate a decal or
other method of renewing the dial printing. I would think with modern
digital methods this should be fairly easy or at least possible. There
are vendors who sell new dials for old radios, perhaps one can make a
new dial for this receiver.
I am reminded BTW, of the similarity of the S41 to the Echophone.
The S41W shown by another poster, is interesting looking. Don't
think I've ever seen the real thing. Not many receivers made in white
(actually I can't think of another) so I wonder what the intended market
was.

Never have found a source yet for a replacement dial face for my S41G.
This receiver works good and is in excellent physical condition except
for the faded dial face.
I wonder if anyone has a S41"W" model (white dial), or the Echophone
EC-1 with a good dial face that could be photographed such that I could
make a new dial face from an emailed attached photo?
It's not a premium radio of the past, but is in good enough condition to
try to improve the dial face.
I also have a good S-20R and a SX101 and a number of other "golden
oldies" to go with my "rice boxes".
Your assistance would be appreciated.
