Looking for a good source for volume knobs and power switches. Also, is it simple to wire a power on light?
Thanks |

Also the countless vendors on eBay, generally decent quality, quick shipping, and a often selection hard to find elsewhere.

....ebone is the best place to look. For knobs search for Raytheon and Alco. Alco makes some nice switches also. JBT and C&K make good switches. For pilot lites I always use an LED with a circuit to the incoming AC rather than a 6.3v wired to the filament winding. Some of these surpus sales places have really unreasonable prices. For rotary switches look for Grayhill or Electroswitch. Ray
