<pre wrap="">The first question that comes to my mind, without researching the "SB
model" dial part numbers, are all "SB" dials (receivers, transmitters,
transceivers) the same (markings, size, mounting, etc.)?

<pre wrap="">the Achilles heel of the SB dials is the metal plate (used to rotate
the dial through the friction discs) that has tabs that extend
into the plastic. These tabs exert a constant pressure on the
plastic, which, with age, finally gives way. So it was a flawed
design
to begin with. But most worked for 30 or 40 years before they
cracked. A redesign should account for this; and be manufactured
in
a way that won't stress the plastic.
