[Amps] SB1000 = AL80? / Heathkit spare parts, where from?

[corneliuspaul@gmx.net (corneliuspaul@gmx.net)]

Hello,

could anybody please confirm that the AMERITRON AL80 linear
is the same as the HEATHKIT SB1000?

I would like to repair my SB1000 which has a burnt band switch.
Unfortunately there is no HEATHKIT no more, and no spare parts...

So if the AL80 is the same amp and using the same bandswitch
I would hopefully get this spare part from AMERITRON...?

thanks in advance for your help
