How many of you guys have changed the clutch on a Heathkit HW-101 (or similar rig)?


That circular thing on the right is the "Plastic Clutch" on the Heathkit HW-101.   Mine dried out and shattered when I pushed the "Zero Set" button on the from ot the HW-101.  I heard it crack.  I cut out a piece of plastic of the right size.  That replacement clutch has been in there for about 30 years now.  

I know of one other guy who has replaced the clutch on a HW-101 (Will, N5OLA).  Let us know if you have done this too.  Put a comment down below.
