Geoff: You asked about SPR-4 labels. Here's a suggestion from back in February that I found very helpful. If the Drakelist is searchable, I don't know how to do it...this is just from my "old mail." Good luck...I want to make some labels for my own SPR-4, too. Jim, K5JD, seems to have the solution--or at least one of them. Love those Drakes! 73, Tony N3WAK Date: Tue, 09 Feb 2010 20:59:30 -0600 From: Jim Gerke <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Drakelist] SPR-4 Labels
When I had my SPR-4 (which I STUPIDLY sold a few months ago), I replaced the labels for the optional crystals using my Brother P-Touch label maker with black-on-clear tape. One of the 5 text size settings was pretty close the original Drake lettering. The text style setting called "vertical" allowed me to print the "Frequency", "Preselector", and "Range" info on a single label that, when held vertically, closely matched the Drake labels. I think I needed only one space between the freq, pre, and range designations to make them look right. All I had to do then was trim the labels into the trapezoidal shape needed to place them on the dial. 73, Jim K5JG
