ARRAKIS ITT SWITCHES

Hi everyone, We have an Arrakis board in the on air studio and need some information on the repair parts for the ITT switches. I remember changing the button lens and other parts of the latching switches with parts from a supply company possibly with the name of "SHADOW" or "SHADOW SWITCHES" . Someone else ordered them for the station and I have no idea where they came from. Can Anybody help?? The buttons are assigned to the air, monitor,audition and utilities and program functions. Thanks a lot, Dave Thomas, Regional Radio Group
 
Why not just give Dale at Arrakis a call? From the sounds of it I assume it's probably an older board. You may find it difficult to find those switches.

Something of greater concern is the Voltage Controlled Amplifier chips used in the older boards - they're no longer made and if you can find replacements you'll pay dearly for them. I got rid of two older Arrakis boards so I could get some semi-modern VCA chips.
 
Thanks Bill. AND you hit it right on the head about that voltage control chip. One "popped and burned" already in recent thunder storm......thank you for your reply. DT
