Rca 630ts

I just picked up an early 630TS What a backbreaker!! It has channel 1 and three brackets that hold the safety glass to the cabinet. The question I have is can some one post a picture of the channel selector and fine tuning knobs? I don't think it has the proper ones on it.

Here is a not-too-clear one.

Steve, are you sure that's the correct one?
I thought all the early RCA's used the "window" channel selector?

Eric is right. The 630, and all RCAs up to '48, used the window selector. That knob is off an early 50s set. But the brass Ch. 1 escutcheon is correct.

The 621 used the same knob. Not a closeup, but good enough detail to get the idea:

You are right. My 630 has the wrong knobs. I'll have to change them. Here is a closeup of the proper knobs.

Tnx guys for the pix. I've got a set in the knob box. I wasn't sure if it used the same ones as the 6T71 but it doesn't.
