[TenTec] Dial cord replacement

The Tritons use a combination of elastic and non-elastic dial string.  
The two halves meet at the dial pointer, and the elastic part has to 
stretch the length of the scale.  It's different from any other dial 
string arrangement I've seen.  However, I'm sure the materials aren't 
exotic.  The cord reminds you of cords used to wrap packages.  I bet a 
hobby store would have it.
