Viking Valiant Drive Pot Question

[Mike Feher]

Hello to all -

I have several NOS Clarostat 20K RV-10 wirewound pots. They are, enclosed,
about 1.5 inches in diameter and 5/8 inch in thickness. They have the
standard mounting with a 3/4 inch long 1/4 inch diameter shaft. I have
either sold or donated some of these to other Johnson users in the past. I
would like $ 7.00 plus shipping, probably about $1.00 for them. Hope this
helps. 73 - Mike
