Was it the Comanche? Siltronix 10/11?
You ARE describing my Henry Tempo One pretty good.
If I had (or wanted)11m Xtals it could be converted.
There is a picture of it WAY at the bottom in my PICs thread.

I have a Siltronix 1011D Comanchee, and it looks just like what you are describing.

Could it be the Siltronix 1011C or Siltronix 1011D Comanche radios?

Both models had a big black tuning knob with silver center's.
