WANTED: VE 9-55 Electrola Loop Antenna Gear Arm

Post by Victrola-Monkey »

Does anyone have a spare VE 9-55 Electrola Loop Antenna Gear Arm, or maybe two? Or have a mold or pattern board for casting them? This is another one of those dreaded pot-metal parts.

I have three VE 9-55s that are complete and in excellent condition. Except however, one has this plastic Gear Arm replacement and the other two need their broken pot-metal ones replaced.

Any tips or leads appreciated.

Wayne,

That looks like one of my castings I made years ago. I had six 9-55's and I think I made 3 of those plastic
gears.

I may still have the mold around here somewhere.

Chuck,

Thanks for your reply. I bought the VE 9-55 with your Gear Arm in 2013 in New Hope PA.

Your Gear Arm works great, by the way.

PM sent.
