This is a dial cord, stretch cord and dial lamp solution for Ten Tec 229 series, 238 and 4229 antenna tuners. This MAY be what you need for Ten Tec or other radios – BUT, WE DO NOT guarantee fit and function for anything other than the specified tuners! If you buy for some other purpose, this is entirely up to you. The diameter of the non-stretch dial cord is VERY IMPORTANT because how it winds on the shaft of the roller inductor determines the calibration of the slide rule dial! We provide the EXACT size of dial cord as originally specified by Ten Tec so your dial accuracy remains! We also provide heavy duty stretch dial cord, also of the exact correct diameter. Also included is THREE 12-14 volt LED bayonet base bulbs. (WHITE bulbs are included or you can have any combination of BLUE or WHITE or AMBER or GREEN, just let me know when you purchase. (note: we do NOT have RED) We also have a lighting ON/OFF switch box for the panel lamps in another listing, see my eBay store I made a simple way of providing ON-OFF for the panel lamps AND also provide the replacement LED bulbs AND stretch cord for the slide rule dial! SEE MY EBAY STORE What you get in THIS listing: 3 WHITE led bulbs (if you want AMBER, GREEN or BLUE or ANY combination instead, send me a message when you are at the PayPal payment part of your purchase ”send seller a message”) 1 20″ long stretch cord (tie knots to use 16″ loop to loop), color of cord may vary 1 50″ long non-stretch dial cord (46″ needed), color of cord may vary Ten Tec stringing picture is the last picture in this listing (NOTE: extra bulbs available for $2 each (if we can ship together), send a message and I will send a PP bill, get extra colors for a neat custom look or maybe you need bayonet base bulbs like this for other 5-14 VDC projects! These great bulbs put out useful light down to 5 VDC! I use them ALL OVER THE PLACE! I use them for 5, 6, 9 and 12 VDC applications! ANTENNA TUNERS ARE NOT INCLUDED! How to use: 3 WHITE led bulbs (you can add more bulbs at $2 each or ask me for any combination of Amber, Green, White or Blue) 1 20″ long stretch cord (NOTE: tie cord for 16″ loop to loop) 1 50″ non-stretch dial cord (if your dial cord is still good, just replace the stretch cord and save this as a spare) How to replace stretch dial cord: These are your instructions! READ entirely BEFORE you start Remove four screws from top cover (2 each side), remove top cover Remove knobs (for my 229 and 238 tuners, the knobs are Torx T07 except the ”SWR SET” knob which is a 1.3mm allen) Again, these are types and sizes needed for MY 229 and 238 tuners Remove FOUR dark colored screws from corners of front panel Remove three plug connectors from board near meter Remove old stretched cord from dial pointer and the other end Slide pointer to the right while turning roller inductor shaft clockwise, both to the end of travel Tie knot in one end of new stretch cord, measure to make know in other end so loop-to-loop is about 16″ Tie knot and do the same with the other side but measure to have about 16″ loop to loop. Put one loop over end of dial pointer post Run down and under lower right corner bushing Run to the left and go to EITHER the lower left bushing OR the capacitor shaft Carefully remove old bulbs, they are bayonet twist lock. BE CAREFUL when installing the new LED bulbs so you do not twist the front of the bulb and not be ”pushed” into the socket to clear the two ”barbs” on the sides of the bulb. Look carefully and see what I mean. NOTE: on the 238, I bend the aluminum plate back in order to get to the meter bulb, that is much easier than removing the nuts and bolts for that plate. Do as you see fit. See Ten Tec link (provided) for schematic for restringing non-stretch dial cord Re-assemble in reverse order (be certain to have capacitor FULLY MESHED when dial is on 10) Enjoy! TIP: Always leave your tuner roller inductor pointer near the far right end of travel as this puts the least stress on the stretch cord. TIP: Use green kitchen pot cleaning pad or fine sandpaper to ”scratch” the bulb clear plastic lens for more light diffusion: IF you do this, BE CAREFUL not to twist and break the bulb plastic from the base! Replacement bulbs are $1 each plus shipping, if shipped separate NOTE: the lighting is not uniform across the slide rule dial. This is because of the Ten Tec design of bulb placement The listing will come with all WHITE bulbs unless you specify otherwise (send me a message when paying in PayPal. If you do not specify, you will get THREE WHITE LED bulbs Personally, I like all three colors but the BLUE for meter and WHITE for panel is really a neat look. All WHITE is the brightest and best for the slide rule dial. All BLUE gives a really COOL look. 73, Dan W7RF
