The power/ tone control switch on my S-40B has failed.?
The Hallicrafters part number for power/tone switch is 60A225. That is the same part number for the power/tone switch in the S-40, S-40A, S-40B, S-85, SX-99 and probably several other Hallicrafters sets using a similar tube lineup. ?I could bypass the switch with a jumper and turn the set on and off with a power strip. I could wire in mini toggle in parallel and hide it in the back still allowing the tone control to work. ?I could replace it with a switched audio pot but that just seems cheesy. Anyone robbed a switch from a pot and successfully grafted it or have a better solution?
