[BC] Telos 1 X 6 Switch Console Parts

[Broadcast List USER]

I always have tried to "Second Source" all of those kinds of parts.   
I nearly always found it to be less expensive to go to a parts  
distributor.

I know I had gotten those switches from a company called Marine Air  
Supply.  I think they were in Kensington, MD.

I don't recall the manufacturer.  It was a fairly common switch.  I  
used to use them in stuff I hand built from scratch.

ALSO, as I recall (forgive me, it has been a LONG time) there are two  
versions of the same switch.  One clicks, and a more expensive one  
was click-free -- noiseless.

I bought the less expensive ones and made them noise free.  Removing  
the cap, one would find a silver colored wire JUST visible when the  
internal carrier is depressed.  Grab it with needle nose pliers, and  
carefully pull hard.  The wire that makes the clicking noise would  
just come out, saving a LOT of money.
