Was hoping someone could steer me in the right direction on finding a 10 turn pot that would work on a old school 148 GTL's clarifier , one that might fit one way or the other. Much thanks ! Switch Kit

To get this to fit in a 148GTL, you will need to make some mounting/fitting modifications.
Another option is to use a Cobra 2000 clarifier. It will give you a Course & Fine and will physically fit without modifications. You will need to use "Keyed" knobs but they aren't that hard to find. 20KB + 1KB

Shadetree has the right idea. A multiturn pot is not that useful without a turns-count dial on it. The position of the knob alone tells you little about where a 10-turn control is set.
The count dials tend to cost more than the control, and present a mechanical issue getting them mounted.
Not the best solution IMHO.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/1741152453...pid=5336136228&customid=&toolid=10001&mkevt=1 , Depending on the size and fit on this 148 , I was hoping something like this would work better because the radio has a very hefty slider on it . I used one once before 30 some years ago but it was on a Uniden PC-122 . Thanks for the replies . Switch
Thanks to everyone for the input , this one from Amazon looks pretty trick ! Way cool. Thanks 399 thumbs up !
i remember years ago ops putting 10 turn on ssb clarifiers but also putting a diode in radio somewhere to make it widebanded,,,,
I like this idea. Might have to look into this for other grant xl I have.Amazon.com
