There is a fellow in Wisconsin who supplies replacement enclosures for the
Drake TR7/R7 units. Does anybody know who that is? I need to either have
mine glass bead blasted and repainted (this was the gooey enclosure) or
replace it.
I have already tried Google............no results.

Don't recall exactly who it is. You might wish to sign up for the Drake List at
QTH.NET... or I can ask for you on that list.

Thanks.........that sounds good. In the meantime, I will also give John a
call over at Drake tomorrow. This receiver has fought me all the way, but I
finally have it completed, except for the enclosure.
Thanks again!

Thanks Mike,

Jerry Strawman sent me the contact information this morning. I ordered one
of his last two items.
Thanks again!

There is a guy in Ohio I think (Jeff Covelli???--advertises in 'Electric
Radio") that repairs them. He should be easy to find (web search for
Drake repair or call Bill Frost-if he is still around- at Drake) and
they can tell you who fixes the "sticky paint" problem. BTW, my TR-7 had
the sticky paint, but I just lived with it. Good luck!

Jeff just tuned up my R7 in November. Got it back the day before Thanksgiving.
