MOTM

I just got a few of these sealed 12 position switches. They look to be fine. 
They have a smoother feel (less physical "resistance" to being turned than the 
Blacet Frequency Divider switches). These might be good for those building 
either a MOTM-ized Blacet FD or the Hendry range selector (822? is it?).

and look for:

RS-117  ($1.75 each)

Hey Larry,

Not understanding the first part....I'll have a go anyway.

The switches don't rotate continuously (i.e., all the way around) they go 
from say 1 o'clock to 12 o'clock (a la the Blacet FD), and so would be better 
suited for octave switching IMHO.

The diameter of the (back of) the switch is a bit more than an inch (looks 
like 17/16"). I'd forgotten about the mounting issue with the switches and the 
wood cabinets and the thing.
