Hey gang..My Kenwood TS-930s is on the fritz...I need the Power switch that turns the rig on and off.....Seems that mine isn't working properly...When pushed in, it doesn't click and stay on.....The rig only stays powered up when holding the button in.....Is there anybody on the forum hear that could hook me up on where to purchase this particular part or guide me in the right direction....<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"> Any leads would be appreciated.....Thanks all........

Have you checked with Kenwood? If they don't have it you may have to find a suitable replacement.<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/frown.gif ALT=":("> Maybe RF Parts? As a <span style="color:red;">last resort </span>you could leave the switch but by pass it internaly and run a switch inline with the power cord. Good luck.

I know this is an old old post, but others might be looking, as I was.
I got a couple of knobs from dxzone.
I found, additionally, that I had to file down the shoulders of the rectangular knob a great deal to make it possible to push in the plunger far enough to make it stick.
Silly way to build a radio, seems to me, but at least there's an easy fix.
It isn't the switch -- it's the knob.
