| 1457827 | 2019-01-31 18:49:00 | I'm looking for a variable capacitor (tuning condenser) for a project. The type you would find in an old radio. Ideally duel gang 250/90pf. |

| 1457829 | 2019-01-31 21:48:00 | Thanks Clive. Had a look there, appears to be new stuff. I doubt if this item would be available as a new part. There are a few on eBay, but it takes so long to arrive unless you pay for the quick shipping option. |

| 1457830 | 2019-01-31 22:00:00 | It would look similar to this, only one gang/rotor will be smaller than the other. en.wikipedia.org |

| 1457831 | 2019-01-31 23:10:00 | I have a box of them but all the values are unknown, it would take time to find one which might be correct... it may be faster to get one from eBay! | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 1457832 | 2019-02-01 00:38:00 | Must be a big box. It usually takes 4 - 6 weeks to get an item from eBay |

| 1457834 | 2019-02-01 04:51:00 | Thanks, already been there, also tried RS Components. It will have to be one scavenged from an old SW Radio. |
