Seeking Part-potentiometer

4.55kohm pot? I looked in my copies of servo magazine and didn't see that were depicted anywhere (but I didn't look all that hard though). I think only Hewlett Packard would have used a odd value like that. You should be able to substitute A 5k pot with no problems. Now for a 5k pot, you should be able to get something from here is a catalogue page which shows some candidates.

THanks for your time Earl. You're not the only one that has found that odd. If you are interested, it's on the parts list in the November 2003 issue page 44. I'll try out the 5 k you suggested. I've got nothing to lose since I already have the other parts.

I see it now, beats me where he got them at. Since this is a general chassis discussion how to article. You should be able to substitute most any pot actually. it's all in the software. You could even make the hole larger on the rear leg and use 1/4" shaft pots too.

5k pots should work well for this.

Thanks again. I'm new to electronics so this is all foreign to me. The pot is the last part I need to find. I'm glad to hear a substitution will work (with the noted mod).

Oh, I also substitued a 220 pf capacitor for a 200 pf capacitor. Any idea if this will work?

Great, I'll keep my fingers crossed. I just might get this project going this year. Thanks for the help.
