Subject: Drake SPR-4 bandwidth switch

Gentlemen, this mail comes from Sweden.
 
Recently I bought a Drake SPR-4 with Serial no 1265.
 
I have a German book named "Oldie KW-Empfänger". In this book is a test report for the Drake receiver. The author mentions that you can modify the radio so you can choose the bandwidth with a knob on the back of the radio. You loosen the shaft of the Mode switch, take it out and saw it off at the right place. So you let one part, that for the bandwidth, come out at the back of the radio, place a knob on it and then you can switch between the three positions. The other part goes as before out on the front side.
 
My question is now:
Is it the "deck" just in front of the four Bandfilter coils that determins the bandwidth? This must be "the right place", it must be here that I shall saw the shaft, is it so ?? Or, is there a better way ?
 
Thanks in forward for any advice.
 
Best regards
Jan
