Default Knob source for RS-6

The RS-6 is a goofy 'survival radio' in 4 parts which all interconnect.
All parts same size & appear as ugly, longish black sardine cans.

I need the 2 knob sets. One knob fits the RT-6 transmitter, the other
the RP-6 power supply.

Both knobs very shallow black plastic with bar-grip & .25" shaft socket
which, too, has a little bar. Can easily put up digital fotos if anyone
asks.

Of course affordable (~$7/ea) repros would be GREAT

Thanks!

Marty

---tiny history---

Only documentable use was part of a survival kit in B47s since no way
cud get to E. Europe & back - they'd have to ditch.

But 1000s made after the 1st 50 or so the AF needed & most, probably, went
to Army special forces, etc. I say that since many came out thru
Army MARS in or near Ft. Bragg ~1959-61. Many call them spy radios
since there's mild similarity to RS-1 (earlier) and GRC-109 (later and
really special forces)

My unpopular theory was they were p/o a political pay-back (boondogle)
to Emerson Radio of Waltham MA. Emerson that later became GTE.

Details here'd be more valuable to me than the 2 damn knob sets!!!
